What Are Ombre Brows?
Ombre Brows are a semi-permanent makeup technique that creates a soft powder-shaded effect through the brows.
Instead of individual hair strokes, this technique uses gentle shading to build color, shape and definition.
The front of the brow is usually kept softer, while the tail and arch are more defined, creating a natural gradient effect.
Ombre Brows are perfect for clients who want a clean, filled-in brow look that still feels soft and wearable.
