Brow trends have come a long way in recent years. Every time you open your Instagram, you’re guaranteed to see someone trying a new style or trend for their brows. Your eyebrows frame your face, and in the age of mask-wearing, they’ve never been more important!
Keeping your brows groomed and in shape doesn’t mean you have to pluck them every week. We’re deep-diving into two of the most popular brow trends – HD brows and microblading – to help you decide which treatment is for you. While both treatments can give you your dream brows, one comes in at a more affordable price point.
What is microblading?
Microblading is a semi-permanent treatment that is known as ‘brow tattooing’. It uses tiny needles to apply pigment directly under your skin in hair-like strokes that recreate your natural brow hairs. Microblading gives you a realistic look that you couldn’t achieve at home. It’s a form of semi-permanent tattooing that gives you a soft and buildable look.
With microblading, you can alter the shape and shade of your brows to give you a whole new look. Part of the appeal of microblading is that the treatment lasts for between one to three years, depending on your skin type. You’ll want to book in for a maintenance appointment to help top-up the pigment every few months.
Who is microblading for?
If you want a low-maintenance eyebrow look, microblading is for you. It’s the perfect treatment if you’re someone who wants to streamline your beauty routine and never have to use a brow product again.
One of the reasons microblading is so popular is that it works for every skin tone. It’s a popular treatment for anyone suffering from alopecia or hair loss, as it can help you recreate your entire brows.
Microblading puts you back in control of your brows. Whether you’re guilty of overplucking your brows or want to change the shade to match a new hair colour, microblading has something to offer everyone.
The treatment feels similar to having your brows threaded, giving it a universal appeal for both men and women.
What are HD Brows?
HD brows is a tailored eyebrow treatment that uses an innovative formula and custom-blended colour to help you create your perfect brows. Whatever your #browgoals are, HD brows is the treatment for you. Whether you’re looking for bushy brows or a sleek shape, HD brows can deliver an individual treatment that’s just for you.
Your treatment will consist of tinting, waxing, threading, and tweezing your brows. Every HD brow treatment is different and involves a consultant working with you to find the perfect brow look for you and your skin tone. HD brows use custom-blend bespoke brow dyes to perfectly match your complexion.
Who are HD brows for?
If you’re someone who wants a little help getting your brows under control, then HD brows are for you. This affordable treatment gives your brows a groomed look, covering everything from waxing to tweezing. It’s the perfect treatment to indulge in before a holiday or a special event. If you want more than a traditional tint and wax, then upgrade to HD brows.
The beauty of HD brows is that they’re zero risk and give you an ‘au natural’ look. When trends change, you have the freedom to shake up your look and try a different brow shape. If you don’t want to commit to the time or price of microblading, HD brows can give you a similar look with your own brow hairs.
HD brows also has a regrowth programme for sparse brows, with regular maintenance appointment to help you get the brows of your dreams. Using the A List Beauty Castor Oil as part of your nightly routine can help you maintain the look of your HD brows.
Microblading vs HD Brows
One of the main differences between HD brows and microblading is their longevity. You can expect to get up to 3 years of wear out of your microblading treatment with regular maintenance. HD brows typically last 4-6 weeks, a similar time frame to your traditional tint or wax.
Price can also be a determining factor when choosing between the two. HD brows are more budget-friendly, but you might consider microblading to be a worthwhile investment. Both treatments aim to give you a custom look, altering the shape and style of your brows. What makes HD brows unique is that it works with your natural brows hair and custom blends for tints to give you the shape and style you want.
Whether you’re looking to treat hair loss around your brows or change up your shape, HD brows and microblading are two treatments to consider.
