The hair technique of PM eyebrows has been used for a long time and is in demand. Its peculiarity is that only a highly qualified craftsman with extensive experience can perform this jewelry work.

The technique is suitable for any skin. You need to understand that depending on the type of skin, we will see a different result: on dry skin, the hair will look clearer and thinner than on oily skin. It can be used to partially draw the missing hairs.

The hair technique is performed quite painlessly, healing is comfortable, with slight peeling, which in most cases remains invisible. The saturation and duration of wearing eyebrows depends on the quality of the pigment, the number of passes and the speed of metabolic processes in the human body.

Update - in about 1-2 years.

Before and after the procedure

This technique has several varieties of technical execution:

• application of pigment in one continuous movement;
• application of pigment by reciprocating or translational motion.

Drawing is carried out according to various schemes / techniques for drawing hairs - from simple parallel lines (along the natural growth of hair) to complex weaves using several colors. It is possible to combine laying schemes.

You can also combine hair technique with shading.

Today I will introduce you to one of the options for performing the PM hair technique.

Procedure steps

We begin our work with the client by signing an informed consent.

We take photos before the procedure.

We find out the wishes of the client and start selecting the shape and color in accordance with the color type (pay attention to the regrown hair roots on the head). It is important to prepare the eyebrows themselves (we recommend that the client not tweeze or color them before the procedure). The color of the cosmetic pencil must match the color of the pigment - we coordinate the final result of the work with the client.

We draw eyebrows, adhering to the natural growth of hair as much as possible. If necessary, correct the asymmetry.

We show the finished sketch of the eyebrows and check the symmetry of the drawn heads, the position of the highest points on the eyebrows, the direction of the tails and their length.

After the client approves the form, we fix the sketch with a white pencil.

Apply primary anesthesia for 15 minutes.

We prepare the workplace - we show disposable tools, put on barrier protection on the machine, mix pigments if necessary, prepare secondary anesthesia, moisten cotton swabs with a disinfectant solution of chlorhexidine.

Wet the anesthesia with a dry cotton pad. We fix the head and the upper part of the sketch by drawing superficial points, which are created by a light touch at an angle of 90 degrees. We do not make deep punctures to avoid a dense point. In the presence of thick eyebrows, the lower part of the sketch can be sprayed with a soft line in the upper layer of the epidermis (it will peel off during the healing of the eyebrows).

Remove the applied pencil, dry clean the surface.

We begin to draw a hair pattern along the upper border of the sketch, adhering to the direction of natural hair growth. We make the hair with a smooth, uniform movement of the maniple at an angle of 50–70 degrees, 5–7 mm long, so that the required amount of pigment remains in the dermis.

It is important to adhere to the same depth and uniformity of pigment application. It must be understood that during deepening, the pigment changes color. With surface application of pigment, a large number of passes will have to be made, while a thin line will be more difficult to create. The pigment is applied to the middle layer of the dermis. Departure of the needle - 1.5-2 mm, the speed of the machine is above average.

Then we draw lines from the lower contour, repeating the location of the drags on the eyebrows. It is important not to cross the hairs perpendicular to each other so that the pattern looks natural. The hairs can be smoothly connected to each other. It is important to be careful not to make dark spots at the junctions.

We wipe the pigment, view and fill in the light areas.

We apply secondary anesthesia.

We pass to the second eyebrow and perform the same steps.

We return to the first eyebrow, wipe off the anesthesia and make 1-2 more passes, leveling and saturating the color of the hair, while not inducing the end, so that the hair has a lighter and thinner beginning and end. The saturation of the color of the eyebrow depends on the number of passes.

We perform the same technical actions on the second eyebrow.

After the procedure, we apply a wound healing cream (without hormones and antibiotics). We inform the client about the importance of post-procedural care. We issue care instructions and the necessary products for it: in the first three days - wipe the eyebrows with an antiseptic solution (chlorhexedine or furatsilin), blot dry and apply a thin layer of cream. Then - just soften with cream for 2-3 weeks - until complete healing.

After the procedure

Hair application technique, as a rule, needs to be adjusted. After three weeks, we call up the client and discuss further actions.
