A more enhanced, defined, full eyebrow game is not even a decade old. The fashion industry has developed from high contour looks very simple, nude, and all-natural faces of women in much less time. The entire span is pretty less to confidently say it as an ‘overnight change’, compared to the time the fashion industry would require for the shift.
With the new style statement to make-up and cosmetics, came a lot of research, study, and adaptation to the newborn style. Women preferred to choose the fresh look on their faces because it was clean and comparatively lesser maintenance. Hence, the industry brings permanent style as the real grown-up game. One of the most popular styles that the complete world went gaga on was the clean dewy face, with blush cheeks and defined brows.
Since the onset of the changed game, the eyebrow requirement of women has seen some commendable improvement with the help of dermatology and scientific measures. For example, the ‘Micro-blading’ work on Brows is a solid, safe option to choose.

Another treatment called the ‘machine work’ also works great with visible results for the eyebrow enhancement journey. How it works is by creating artificial eyebrow hair strokes with the help of a professional eyebrow machine (that only a trained professional can handle) along the eyebrow line as the client wants.
For obvious reasons, the two treatments despite being similar have certain dissimilarities in terms of results and lasting effects. If one gives a more defined outcome, the other votes for an entirely different outlook.

To get more into the details, microblading is a tattooing process done cosmetically to fill thin eyebrows entirely or just where the fillers are necessary. The ultimate result depends totally on the client’s requirement. However, the result duration might not exceed one year because the pigment used here is relatively smaller than what they use for real tattooing procedures.
