Microblading when there is no hair- how it can transform your sparse, thinning, or non-existent brows.
You might be wondering if you’re still a good candidate for microblading or eyebrow tattooing if you have sparse, thin, or even no eyebrows. The answer- absolutely! While our brow services are a safe and effective way to achieve fuller brows that look natural, it can also be a great solution for people who don’t have little to no brow hair at all, such as those who suffer from alopecia or cancer patients.
Microblading is ideal for people with thinning or sparse brows due to aging, over-plucking, victims of the 90s skinny brows, or medical causes and can completely transform your look.
What is Microblading?
First, let's start by defining microblading. Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing procedure that uses a handheld tool with tiny needles to deposit pigment into the skin. The goal is to create natural-looking hair-like strokes that mimic the appearance of real eyebrow hairs.
Benefits of Microblading
Microblading has numerous benefits, especially when it comes to sparse, thinning, or non-existent brows. Some of the benefits include:
Saves Time: Microblading can save you time on your daily makeup routine. You no longer have to spend time filling in your brows, as microblading creates a natural-looking, fuller brow.
Enhances Your Features: Microblading can enhance your facial features and make your eyes look brighter and more defined.
Long-Lasting Results: The results of microblading can last from one to three years, depending on your skin type and how well you care for your brows. This means you won't have to worry about your brows for an extended period.
Natural-Looking Results: Microblading creates natural-looking, hair-like strokes that mimic the appearance of real eyebrow hairs. This means you don't have to worry about your brows looking too artificial or fake.
Boosts Confidence: Microblading can boost your confidence and self-esteem. You'll no longer have to worry about your brows looking sparse or thin, as microblading creates fuller, more defined brows.
When There Is Little to No Hair
Now, when there is no hair at all, microblading can still be done. In fact, microblading is often the preferred method for people with little to no brow hair. Your skilled permenent makeup artist will work with you to design a custom brow shape that complements your face shape and features, then use the microblading tool to create fine hair-like strokes in the brow area.
It is especially important to ensure that you are working with an experienced artist (it is an art, after all) who has the aesthetic eye and knowledge to be able to achieve a natural look! Your permanent makeup artist will pay attention to your unique facial anatomy and skin undertones to determine placement and ink color, while addressing your aesthetic preferences.
If you have eyebrow hair loss due to a medical condition such as alopecia or cancer, be sure to discuss this in your consultation to make sure that your medications or chemotherapy won’t cause any unwanted effects. If you will be undergoing chemotherapy, it is generally recommended to get the procedure at least 2 months in advance of starting treatment, or waiting until at least 8 weeks after treatment. While most cancer patients are good candidates for microblading, you will need to get a doctor’s approval before the treatment.
To sum it up, yes- microblading can absolutely transform sparse, thinning, or non-existent brows into full and beautiful ones, even when there is no hair at all. It's a natural-looking, long-lasting solution that can enhance your facial features and save you time on your daily makeup routine.
