Ombre brows typically last between 2 to 3 years, but this result varies depending on one's skin type lifestyle, sun exposure, and how well the client follows the aftercare instructions.

While microblading uses fine strokes that mimics individual hairs, ombre brows use tiny dots that creates a soft, powdery appearance.

Pain varies per client and it depends on how they tolerate pain. However, most clients rate their pain as mild to moderate. A numbing cream will be applied to minimize discomfort.

Initial healing takes 10 to 14 days in which the brows may appear darker and scab slightly. Clients are advised to avoid water, sweat, and sun exposure during this time. 

A 6-8 week touch-up is recommended after the initial appointment to correct any fading and ensure the desired shape and color. After that, annual touch-ups may be needed in order to maintain the look.
