⦁ Nano brows are a form of cosmetic tattoo that mimics the look of hair strokes to create hyper-realistic eyebrows.
⦁ To create nano strokes, a handheld machine is used. This is different from microblading which is done using a manual handheld tool to create hair strokes.
⦁ There are two different techniques used to create the nano hair stroke:
⦁ Pixelated Hair Strokes – grazing the needle onto the skin to create soft or bold lines depending on the number of layers you complete.
⦁ Defined Hair Strokes – penetrating the needle into the skin to create distinct lines.
⦁ Nano brows are a great alternative to microblading for:
⦁ Artists who prefer machine techniques to manual techniques.
⦁ Clients who are sensitive to pain (this will be more comfortable for them than microblading).
⦁ Clients who are willing to get regular touch-ups (this will fade quicker than microblading).
⦁ Clients who want a less permanent result (microblading will last longer in the skin than nano brows).
⦁ Clients with ‘normal’ aka combination skin i.e. not too dry or too oily, not easily aggravated or sensitive, with no chronic conditions such as acne or rosacea.
⦁ Clients with small pores, specifically in the T-Zone area of the face.
⦁ Clients with no previous PMU who want a natural-looking hair stroke effect.
⦁ Clients prone to eczema, psoriasis, keratosis pilaris, and dermatitis (i.e. skin is constantly flaking, itching, or aggravated) – chances are, their skin is in a constant state of unrest and shedding. In this case, their skin will not hold the pigment well and is not suitable for tattooing.
⦁ The same goes for conditions like chronic acne and rosacea. The inherent nature of this type of skin causes easy bleeding, which once again means the skin will not retain the pigment very well. Also, the color tends to heal very cool. Frequent touch-ups (every 6 months) are recommended to maintain color on this skin type.
⦁ If your client has large pores, specifically in the eyebrow region and forehead (aka the T-Zone), the color will fade faster, and the retention will not be as great compared to someone with smaller pores and dry skin.
⦁ People with previous eyebrow tattoos may want to change or fix what they already have. Laser removal prior to the procedure is recommended if the color is still too dark or if they want to change the shape. In general, nano brows are not ideal for clients with an existing tattoo.
⦁ Other general PMU contraindication, such as pregnancy.
