What are Powder Brows?
Powder brows are a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo treatment that creates a soft, shaded brow effect using layers of pigment.
Unlike microblading, which mimics individual hairs, powder brows create a more diffused finish — similar to softly filled-in brow pencil.
The results depend on your preference. It can range from:
subtle and natural
to more clean, defined and polished
