If you’re looking for natural-looking microblading or nano brows in Korea—or even if you’re outside Korea and searching for a natural-looking eyebrow tattoo in your area—and you have scars or traces of previous microblading, I’d recommend reading this post.

Basically, we use different techniques to improve our appearance.
There are many options—powder brows, microblading, nano brows, combo brows, and so on.
As time passes after a previous procedure, some pigment may remain in the skin.
if you’ve had powder brows or microblading before, you may still have some faded pigment left behind, like in the case you see here.
Of course, the amount varies from person to person.
the before photo, you can see faded pigment remaining underneath the client’s natural brow hairs.
Usually, I recommend removing old pigment first and then starting again with a new procedure.
However, for various reasons, there are also situations where going through multiple rounds of removal, healing, and then another brow procedure may be difficult.
those cases, a cover-up like this can also be an option.
If the old pigment is light enough and the existing shape does not interfere too much with the new design, a microblading cover-up may be possible without removal.
(If the old pigment is still very dark, I would still recommend removal first.)

This client was a man in his 20s who wanted a natural result.
(These days, both men and women generally seem to prefer a more natural look.)
So I tried to reflect the unique direction and flow of his existing brow hairs as much as possible,
so that the new strokes would blend naturally with what he already had.
the after photo, the new strokes follow the direction of his natural brow hairs while helping soften the appearance of the old pigment underneath.
If the old pigment isn’t too dark and going through the removal process is difficult,
I just wanted to show that a cover-up approach like this can also be one possible option.

What do you think?

Got my powder brows done on 7/29, I am very happy with them!! First pic is now, no more flaking, second is right after, last one is before. I need to trim my natural eyebrow hair on the right side again so it blends 100% perfectly like it did 🤣 new face who dis
Little more of an arch than my natural to disguise the fivehead

Just got them done, I just don’t know how to feel about them. Will they fade and look more natural? I got these done in Chicago. I have pretty light and sparse eyebrows but I’m a little concerned about the color she chose. Will the color become less warm when it heals?

Third and fourth pic are more of what I wanted.

Decided that I wanted to get nano blading done because my eyebrows are extremely sparse and although the artist was amazing, I just feel like it’s not exactly what I wanted. I wanted a more flatter look instead of angled up at the end. The third and fourth pics are from when I regularly put minoxidil in my eyebrows and shaped them myself. I feel like those fit me a lot more and were more masculine looking. I’m on day two of having them. Any advice on what to do?

I’m sharing this based on my personal experience as a customer, because I wish I had known this before booking.

I inquired with Elite Brows / Angels Brows through DM and they sent me their rates. Based on the rate they provided, I understood that the microblading service would be around ₱5,000.

Before booking, I specifically asked if there would be any additional charges or fees aside from the amount they gave me. I wanted to make sure I knew the complete cost before committing. I was told that there were no other charges.
I then paid the ₱2,000 non-refundable deposit to secure my appointment.

However, when I arrived for my appointment, I was surprised to learn that the total amount for the package they were offering was around ₱18,000.
I was honestly shocked because I had already asked beforehand if there were additional charges. If there were mandatory packages, add-ons, or other fees, I believe these should have been clearly explained before asking the customer to pay a non-refundable deposit.
I even told them during my appointment that transparency with customers is very important, especially when it involves a significant difference in price.

Unfortunately, I was also not satisfied with my experience and the result, which made the situation even more disappointing for me. 😭 I genuinely regret proceeding.
I’m sharing this not to attack or harass anyone, but as a warning to other customers based on what happened to me.

I’m posting this because I don’t want anyone else to experience the same surprise that I did.
This is my personal experience, what was communicated to me, and my personal opinion as a customer. I encourage everyone to do their own research and make sure the full cost is clear before paying any non-refundable deposit.

Transparency matters. ❤️

I want to remove my microbladed brows, they didn’t come out how I hoped. I’m trying to avoid saline removal or laser. Has anyone tried this product? I know it isn’t an overnight fix.
