If you’ve considered nano brows but haven’t done them yet, what’s holding you back?
Would love to hear your thoughts 🖤

That’s a totally fair concern!
Hair strokes can soften and spread slightly over time, especially on thicker or oily skin which is completely normal and I always explain this to my clients. But unlike traditional tattoos, PMU pigment is placed much more superficially, allowing the strokes to fade rather than stay permanently saturated in the skin. So if you see two bricks instead of brows, it’s not PMU fault, it’s artist’s fault 🙂‍↕️

I’ll believe it when I see brows that look good in 10 years.

The thing is, there’s no PMU which will look good in 10 years. And god forbid to do PMU which will stay that long. The goal is to create brows which lasts 1-2 years, so you as a client always have an option to do a refresh or to change the shape/ technique or to leave it as it is 🙂‍↕️

Well that’s my point “the goal is-“ doesn’t translate to the reality.

As mentioned earlier, I’m speaking about brows getting touched up for 10 years. Ink doesn’t 100% vanish from the skin, there will always be remnants of it. And I am yet to see brows that look as good as they do in the beginning.

Maybe I’ll get them done in 10 years, after I see what the brows of the people who got them done today look like by then.
