Permanent makeup is a procedure during which natural pigments are introduced into the upper layer of the skin using special equipment. This makeup lasts from six months to five years. The most common types of permanent makeup are tattooing of eyebrows, lips and restoration of the color and shape of the areola, which is necessary for women who have undergone breast resection. Permanent makeup is not just a cosmetic, but also a medical procedure, which has its own indications and contraindications.
My review about tattooing.
How long does it last?
They promised me that in 5 years my eyebrows would return to their original appearance. Any article on the Internet promises this, and we believe them... However, more than five years have passed, and my tattooed arches are still with me.
Why did I decide to have the procedure?
My eyebrows and eyelashes have always been light, and after I plucked them a lot as a teenager, they were also sparse.
Nowadays there are a lot of cosmetics on sale: pencils, eyebrow lipsticks, shadows, gels, felt-tip pens. 6-7 years ago, I could only afford a poor quality pencil, which did not make the hair look natural and the shape beautiful. And I didn’t know how to put on makeup back then.
But eyebrow tattooing was gaining momentum. Actresses and singers all drew on their eyebrows, and it was considered fashionable...And every girl tends to follow fashion trends. And I gave in...
Eyebrow tattoo procedure.
I created my beauty in Tver (if you are interested in the name of the clinic, write in the comments). My friends also had permanent makeup done there this year - they also didn’t like the result.
On the appointed day, I came by appointment and was taken to the master.
On the day of the procedure, it is better not to use cosmetics and greasy creams, however, my face was cleaned anyway and the skin in the area of the brow ridges was degreased.
After all the manipulations, I was given a pencil and a mirror so that I could draw the desired shape myself.
I think this is quite correct, because the cosmetologist sees you the way she wants, and then we don’t recognize ourselves. Therefore, it is better to draw the shape yourself, and let the master correct the result a little.
After a long period of tinkering, I was finally happy with the result and lay down on the couch waiting to continue.
What's next?
- They applied an anesthetic cream to my skin - this is mandatory, because tattooing is a painful procedure!
- After 10 minutes, when I felt a chill and realized that the sensation in the forehead area had disappeared, the cosmetologist began to inject pigment.
- They “drew” an outline for me with an indelible marker, and then layer by layer the eyebrow artist began to inject pigment under the skin, gradually applying layer by layer and treating the skin with an alcohol-free anesthetic.
- Upon completion of the tattoo, the artist disinfected the skin and applied healing cream.
When I looked at myself in the mirror, I wanted to cry. In the reflection, a completely different person with unnaturally black eyebrows looked at me. Although I:
- I chose a combined technique that was supposed to create natural eyebrows;
- Light brown shade.
- And, by the way, the form was greatly changed at the request of the master... Therefore, I repeat, choose a specialist based on reviews!
What to do with the new permanent face?
I was given brief instructions on how to care for my eyebrows after tattooing:
It was prohibited:
- Sunbathe
- Go to the sauna and swimming pool
- Peel off the crusts, which will come off in 5-12 days.
- Use alcohol lotions.
What should I apply to the wound?
After 2 months I was told to come for correction, but I, upset by the result, did not go anywhere and left everything as it was. For 2 weeks my skin “bloomed”, bled and hurt, and after half a month I could admire the result of my torment:
Is it possible to wet eyebrows?
You should not wash your face with tap water for several days, so as not to provoke irritation. When caring for your face, you can use boiled water.
What are the consequences of tattooing after 5 years?
Photo of eyebrows before:
After 1 year, my eyebrows looked completely sad: the pigment acquired a red-gray tint, and I couldn’t leave the house without a pencil or gel.
After 6 years it became a little lighter, but, as you can see, it did not disappear anywhere.
If you are wondering whether eyebrows grow after tattooing, I will answer you: yes!
My hair has become thicker and more decent, and now I’m waiting for the permanent makeup to completely come off...
Laser tattoo removal.
Of course, there is the option of mixing the pigment. However, reviews about laser correction of permanent hair are not encouraging - it is long, painful and ineffective.
I generally do not welcome tattoo removal at home with soda, citric acid and other strange options and do not see any logic in them.
So for now I paint my eyebrows and feel like a decent person.
So should you tattoo your eyebrows?
Maybe. But:
- Choose an experienced professional
- Nice clinic
- Don't save money
- Take proper care of permanent makeup and prepare well for the procedure!
Tattooing, or permanent makeup, is a rather serious procedure. Firstly, during the process, the skin is injured, and in the first few days you will have to provide simple care for your eyebrows after tattooing. Secondly, permanent makeup is contraindicated for some. And thirdly, the result may simply not suit you.
Forewarned is forearmed. To prevent your reflection in the mirror from causing acute attacks of self-pity for your loved one every time, find out in advance what the consequences of eyebrow tattooing may be and how to avoid them.
Eyebrow tattooing - does it hurt?
Generally speaking, the eyebrow tattoo procedure is considered the least painful when compared with manipulations in the lips and eyelids. With superficial permanent makeup (depth 0.3-0.5 mm), you can do without anesthesia; for deeper ones, its need is agreed upon between the client and the artist. Everyone’s sensitivity to pain is different, and why put yourself under stress once again if any master has modern painkillers at his disposal. As a rule, this is a cream or gel that is applied to the skin a few minutes before the needle starts working. So don't worry: you probably won't feel anything at all.
Eyebrow care after tattooing
When performing tattooing, shallow punctures are made in the skin with a needle, into which a coloring pigment is placed. Redness of the skin and slight swelling is a natural reaction that will pass quickly. The next day after eyebrow tattooing, crusts form on the skin, which under no circumstances should be torn off: you will not only injure the skin, but along with the crust you can remove part of the pigment and ruin the artist’s work. To care for your eyebrows after tattooing, he will advise you on a special ointment or cream, and will also tell you how to apply them correctly.
In the absence of complications, complete healing of eyebrow tattooing takes a maximum of 5-10 days. But allergic reactions of the body, inflammation and other unpleasant things that require treatment are also possible. If you have had cases of individual intolerance to any drugs, be sure to inform the specialist about this at a preliminary consultation: he will take them into account when selecting an anesthetic and the composition of the paint, which includes plant and mineral components.
Contraindications for tattooing:
- reduced immunity (for example, after illnesses);
- pregnancy, breastfeeding period;
- cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure;
- diabetes;
- asthma, allergic diseases;
- warts, moles, papillomas and other skin formations that may be affected during the procedure.
You should decide together with your doctor whether to tattoo your eyebrows in these cases.
Unsuccessful eyebrow tattoo
The lion's share of all the unpleasant consequences of eyebrow tattooing relates to a frankly unsuccessful result. The complaints to the masters concern either the color or shape of the eyebrows, which often disappoint their clients. But let's talk about everything in order.
Color.
You will be able to evaluate it a couple of weeks after visiting the salon; in the first days it will be darker or brighter. Then, after a few months or even years (depending on the durability of the tattoo), the pigment will begin to lose intensity, and permanent makeup correction will be required. It’s another matter when the consequence of eyebrow tattooing is a complete discrepancy between the color and the declared one, and the blonde gets ashy eyebrows instead of dark brown ones, and the brunette is horrified by their bluish tint!
Form.
There may be two reasons for dissatisfaction. The first is that you didn’t approach the choice of eyebrow shape carefully enough, and now you see that it doesn’t suit you. The second is that the master did the work sloppily (went beyond the outline, made too rough strokes, broke the symmetry).
The trouble is that correcting the color or shape is not so easy; most often, partial or complete removal of the eyebrow tattoo is required. Laser is one of the most effective and safest ways to get rid of unwanted permanent makeup. Depending on the intensity of the pigment and the depth of its penetration into the skin, laser removal of eyebrow tattoo will take from one to ten sessions.
How to avoid the unpleasant consequences of eyebrow tattooing?
A skillfully executed eyebrow tattoo is truly beautiful and not at all harmful to health. But choosing a specialist should be approached with all seriousness.
- Don't trust a master you know nothing about. Take the time to collect information about him on the Internet and among your friends, and look at examples of his previous works.
- Meet the master first and discuss all the nuances. A professional will definitely ask you about your health status, warn you about the possible consequences of eyebrow tattooing, and answer all your questions.
- Pay attention to the sanitary conditions: almost surgical sterility must be maintained in the tattoo room! The technician wears gloves and uses only disposable needles, caps, and dye containers.
And remember, a good tattoo cannot be cheap.
The hackneyed phrase that beauty requires sacrifice often pushes women to take risky actions. Sometimes it seems that bad things can happen to anyone, but not to me. But, unfortunately, no one is immune from the negative consequences of cosmetic procedures. Therefore, before you decide to experiment with your appearance again, you need to learn about the possible risks. Today we will talk about the consequences of eyebrow tattooing.
If a woman goes to a beauty salon, she naturally expects to receive professional service. And part of it is a preliminary consultation. The client must clearly understand what awaits her during and after the procedure, and evaluate all the pros and cons. All contraindications and side effects must be stated. A qualified master will always show the client photos that show how the procedure sometimes ends.
Stages of permanent lip makeup
During the preparatory stage, prevention of herpes is definitely necessary, even for those girls who have never seen it in their lives. And in a couple of days, give up solarium, sunbathing, alcohol and any potential irritants.
During the procedure, the master will draw an outline, apply a sketch and select shades. You can use a pain reliever if you wish, but some professionals do not recommend it because your skin may react differently. First they do the contour, and only then the shading. On average, a session takes up to 3 hours, depending on the complexity and technique.
What is tattooing?
What is a tattoo? This is nothing more than introducing dye into the eyebrow area using a special needle. The principle of the procedure is not much different from applying conventional tattoos. The process is quite painful, so before deciding on it, you need to soberly assess the situation. Of course, if everything goes well, you won’t regret the results. After all, this makes it possible to have a well-groomed look at any time and not think about makeup. But not everything is so rosy. Very often, tattooing does not have very good consequences. We'll talk about them a little below.
Is it possible to remove permanent lip makeup?
It is possible to get rid of permanent makeup, but the process is very long. You will either have to wait for the pigment to fade on its own, or use laser removal. Laser is more effective, but several painful procedures will be required. Although there is a plus - it is usually easier to remove permanent on the lips than on other areas.
Contraindications for eyebrow tattooing
There are direct contraindications to the eyebrow tattoo procedure:
Blood diseases of various types;
Sensitive skin;
The presence of the herpes virus in the body;
Diabetes;
Chronic diseases in the acute stage;
Pregnancy or lactation;
Any formation in the eyebrow area (mole, wart, papilloma, etc.).
Immediately before tattooing, it is not recommended to drink coffee or drink alcohol.
Consequences of eyebrow tattooing
You can often hear that tattooing leads to problems with your own eyebrows. These are rumors that are confirmed by very real cases. Eyebrow loss can actually occur due to the use of low quality dyes that destroy the hair follicles. Therefore, you need to approach the choice of the salon where you are going to carry out the procedure with increased attention.
Another unpleasant moment that can accompany the tattoo procedure is the wrong color of the dye. If a very intense shade is chosen, then the eyebrows look unnatural. Unfortunately, this side effect is quite common.
If you encounter an inexperienced artist, a common consequence of the procedure may be eyebrow asymmetry. Their irregular shape has a very negative effect on a woman’s appearance. Of course, this defect can be corrected, but this requires a repeat procedure, which can be carried out no earlier than a month later. This creates additional difficulties, because you will have to walk around with crooked eyebrows for a whole month. But this is a defect on the face and nothing can hide it.
If the procedure is unsuccessful, you will have to resort to removing the dye using a laser. This is a rather lengthy process that will take at least ten procedures. Reading the reviews, you will notice that this problem occurs quite often.
Another common negative consequence of the procedure can be an allergic reaction. Salons do not always use hypoallergenic dyes. Therefore, ask the master to conduct a paint test.
For several days after tattooing, ichor will be released. It forms a crust, which is strictly prohibited from being removed. By removing the crust, you automatically remove part of the pigment. Therefore, you need to wait until the crust comes off by itself. But if you want to wipe off the released ichor, you can do this with a damp cloth that does not contain alcohol.
The area where the tattoo procedure was performed may be swollen for some time. This is a natural process that completely disappears by the third day. But if how you look is fundamentally important to you, then you can take any antihistamine that has a decongestant effect.
Do not injure your skin with a towel. After washing, do not wipe the skin, but simply blot it and let it dry naturally. In the first two to three days, try not to get the tattooed area wet. Instead of washing your face, you can wipe your skin with ice cubes or makeup removers that do not contain alcohol.
Sometimes you can hear the opinion that in old age problems with eyebrows can arise if you overuse tattooing throughout your life. Many experts claim that this is not so. Problems can only begin when low-quality dyes are used. They can really damage the hair follicles and the hairs will fall out. This can be avoided if you choose a salon and a specialist wisely.
Other dangers
Tattooing eyes, lips or eyebrows is definitely harmful and dangerous if you are trying to save money. After a visit to the unfortunate master, you can expect crooked arrows, green eyebrows, and many other things that will have to be removed with a laser. But that's not the worst thing. With poorly disinfected equipment and a large flow of clients, there is a high risk of contracting the already mentioned herpes, HIV or other terrible illness. You also need to warn the master about your illnesses. If he didn’t tell you what “sores” you should be careful with the procedure for, it’s better to look for another salon.
Another disadvantage and danger may be the appearance of herpes out of nowhere. If you didn’t have herpes, but the virus was sleeping somewhere inside, a micropigmentation device can “wake it up”.
Also, this procedure is not performed on the eyelids if they are inflamed. In order for the arrows to come out expressive and in the desired color, you need to look for an establishment that uses high-quality gel pigments, preferably natural ones, and a device specifically for micropigmentation, and not for an ordinary tattoo. In the case of dermopigmentation, you should not be concerned with the price.
Eyelid tattoos can be very painful - the skin here is thin, so it is important to find a good pain reliever
But after this procedure there may be an allergy, but not to the pigments (they are most often hypoallergenic), but to the painkillers themselves, so you need to choose them carefully. In a good salon, where they are concerned about the reputation and health of their beauties, before the procedure they will definitely give you an Emla skin test or find out from you about your reaction to ultracaine or other anesthetics. A good specialist will select painkillers for the most sensitive and allergy-prone lady. The harm here depends solely on the cosmetologist.
And finally, many are frightened by stories that eyelash growth stops or they fall out. But the machine does not touch the hair follicles, so there is no harm to them. There were, however, cases of loss of eyebrows after this, but this happened when unknown and low-quality pigments were introduced or no tests were carried out in the salon regarding allergies to anesthetics. Take care of your beauty, do not skimp on your health.
When answering the question “is eyebrow tattooing harmful,” you need to consider various factors that influence the procedure. By itself it is harmless. If the tattoo is performed by a competent artist and in accordance with the client’s individual data, then this procedure has no pitfalls. On the contrary, using a permanent will reduce the time of morning getting ready and allow a woman to remain well-groomed 24 hours a day.

What are the consequences
Girls should be prepared for the fact that after tattooing, the skin in the eyebrow area will turn red and, possibly, swelling will appear. The crusts that may remain on the skin after a couple of days should not be torn off, otherwise injury and removal of part of the pigment may occur. A special cream must be applied to the skin to speed up healing and prevent complications. Complete healing will take about 10 days.
If you cannot tolerate any of the medications that will be used during the procedure, be sure to tell the specialist so that he can replace it with another one. Otherwise, an allergic reaction of the body may occur.
Most often, girls are unhappy with the color of their eyebrows if it is chosen incorrectly. It may be different from the one they wanted. If the color turns out to be very saturated, this can be corrected, but only immediately, while the tattoo is still fresh. To do this, gently apply a solution of hydrogen peroxide to your eyebrows several times a day, and then lubricate with any antibacterial cream to soften the skin. After about a week, the eyebrow color will become lighter.
It can also be disappointing. A girl may discover that this form does not suit her at all or that the master did his job poorly. The worst thing about this is that it will be very difficult to correct the shape or color of your eyebrows. This will require several sessions to achieve the desired result using the laser.
After the work of an inexperienced master, eyebrow hairs may fall out. In this case, temporarily stop using makeup and periodically lubricate the eyebrow area with peach, apricot or castor oil. And it is advisable to consult a doctor for advice.
The consequences of lip tattooing and eye tattooing can also be either good, or inflammation and swelling will appear. For the eyes, the consequences can be reduced if you lubricate the skin of the eyelids with a special cream. For the lips, the consequences can lead to the appearance of herpes if preventive measures are not taken in advance, at least a week before permanent makeup.

How to avoid troubles after tattooing
All of the troubles listed above can be avoided if you take the issue of choosing a tattoo artist very seriously. It is advisable to meet the girls who visited this master before you to see for yourself the positive result. Discuss with him in advance all the details of the procedure, read the list of drugs that he will use for this. If questions arise, they need to be discussed so that everything goes well later.
The master may offer to shave the eyebrows and only then apply a tattoo. We cannot agree with this; the shape of the eyebrows should be corrected by removing excess hairs using tweezers. Pregnant women, nursing mothers, and patients with diabetes and asthma should be careful when using permanent makeup.
After any tattoo, you should not be in direct sunlight until complete healing. For the same reason, you should not swim in open water or go to the pool or sauna. It is also better to temporarily avoid scrubs and face masks.
In the beauty salon that a girl chooses, everything should be perfectly clean. The technician must work with gloves, the needles must be disposable, and the instruments must be sterile, otherwise the skin may become infected due to an infection.
Ideally, eyebrow tattooing should bring only joy; the client should have beautiful eyebrows that look natural after it.
Only real professionals can cope with such a task. But if you get a low-quality eyebrow tattoo, the consequences can be disastrous.
Tattooing has not gone out of fashion for several years. With the advent of such a convenient procedure, girls and women preferred to forget about natural beauty. It is much more convenient to have neat, symmetrical eyebrows than to draw and tint them every day. It’s true that a high-quality tattoo does not wash off and looks good for several years, but it turns out that no one, not even a professional in a salon, can guarantee 100% quality.
The harm of tattooing – myth or truth?
When applying permanent makeup, the paint is applied under the skin using special cosmetic tools. In this case, the top layer of the skin suffers, the place where the paint was applied turns red and swells. This is unpleasant, especially difficult when long-term makeup is applied to the eyelids, the eyes swell on top. The face needs special care so that the wounds heal faster and dirt and bacteria do not get in.
When applying long-term makeup, paint enters the human body. This dye must be as safe as possible, otherwise unexpected allergic reactions or deterioration in health may occur. Before applying a tattoo, it is necessary to consult a doctor, especially for people suffering from chronic diseases. Permanent makeup is contraindicated for:
- cancer patients;
- pregnant and lactating women;
- suffering from various types of allergies;
- for those who have acute respiratory viral infections and acute respiratory infections, it is better to wait for a complete recovery;
- patients with epilepsy;
- those with high blood pressure.
The dangers of permanent makeup are not a myth, but the truth.
For some people it can be very dangerous.
Eyebrow tattooing is perhaps the most harmless of all. Firstly, it is not as painful as on other parts of the face. Secondly, there is no constant fear of accidentally touching your eyes. Thirdly, long-term eyebrow makeup is less harmful than others.
Getting a lip tattoo is harmful if herpes appears on your face. Even if the rash is not on the lips, you should still refrain from permanent makeup. The fact is that it can greatly affect the result, namely, the lines may be unclear, and sores will appear near and on the lips. The procedure itself is much more painful than on eyebrows.
Both the master and the client are most afraid of damaging their eyes. The procedure itself does not affect vision in any way. Reduced visual acuity due to permanent makeup is a myth. Long-term makeup on the eyelids is not done if there are any eye diseases, for example, conjunctivitis or when the eyes water due to allergies.
Other dangers of tattooing
Permanent makeup may be harmful to some groups of people or in certain circumstances. But even healthy people can have problems applying long-term makeup. This is all due to the human factor and the dishonesty of cosmetologists.
Lips and eyelids should only be done in proven, well-established beauty salons. Such procedures cannot be done at home, as there is a high probability of infection in the wound.
In the salon, before performing the procedure on you, they will definitely ask you a few questions about what diseases you suffer from, whether you have had a tattoo before, whether you are allergic and to what. You, in turn, can ask what dye is used for permanent makeup, find out its characteristics, manufacturer, etc.
Immediately before applying long-term makeup, the cosmetologist must conduct a test and check whether the client has allergic reactions to the dye, and specify the desired shape and color of the eyebrows, lip contour and eyeliner.
Clearly discuss your desires for permanent makeup with the artist, so that you don’t get upset when you see the result. The beauty salon must be clean, all instruments must be disinfected, disposable napkins, cotton pads, etc. must be available.
Who among the fair sex, regardless of age, does not dream of “eternal” beauty? Not spending half an hour on makeup, having impeccably shaped eyebrows to the envy of your friends, and forgetting about painful plucking is everyone’s dream. And eyebrows, the most expressive part of the face, are very rarely naturally distinguished by their impeccable shape and color. Permanent makeup would seem to be a way out of the situation, but some are afraid of the possible consequences. Let's figure out whether eyebrow tattooing is harmful and what the consequences may be after it.
Data-lazy-type=”image” data-src=”https://protatuazh.ru/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/permanentnyj-makiyazh-brovi.jpg” alt=”green eyes” width=”500 ″ height=”389″>
Every girl has heard about permanent makeup for eyebrows, eyes and lips, and many have thought about resorting to such a procedure. But the question of whether tattooing is harmful to them remains relevant, and the forums are filled with conflicting information.
A modern procedure - permanent makeup (or tattooing) is performed by introducing a dye of natural and safe origin under the outer layer of the skin. This cosmetic procedure is popular and affordable, and is offered today in every salon.
The procedure is painless and is performed with special professional equipment. The cosmetologist competently selects the color tone that most closely matches the type, shade of the face, hair and eyes. If, then their shape and thickness are carefully selected, all this is agreed upon with the client, and only then the procedure is done.
The result is perfect eyebrow makeup that doesn’t have to be touched up. The tattoo lasts for five years, periodically it is worth making corrections to keep the eyebrows looking perfect.
How to protect yourself from unsuccessful eyebrow tattooing
There are different masters. Whether you go to a salon or visit a cosmetologist at home, it is always better to carefully study customer reviews and their photographs. So you will see with your own eyes the possible result and think carefully before deciding on an expensive procedure in this particular place and with this person. Not all mistakes can be corrected later, and you will have to wear them for quite a long time.
Study the information on the topic - it is always useful, and especially since getting a tattoo carries certain risks for your health. There are absolute and relative contraindications to the procedure, such as chronic diseases or current complications. Performing tattooing if they are present is undesirable. The body's reaction to the introduction of coloring pigments into the surface layers of the skin can be unpredictable, despite the fact that all components are considered safe for health.
It is correct to draw conclusions about whether your experience in correcting your appearance was successful or not about a month after the procedure. Usually by this time it’s time to go to the specialist for correction, paint over the white bald spots on the slightly faded layer of paint and even out the tone.
More serious shortcomings, indicating the unprofessionalism of the master, or the fact that low-quality materials were used, are usually visible faster than a month, sometimes even immediately after the procedure.
Tattooing can be disappointing over time, this is another reason to think about whether you need the procedure
Consequences of unsuccessful eyebrow tattooing, reversible with correction in a month
Eyebrow correction is performed a month after the procedure by your specialist - and is half the price of tattooing. By this time, the swelling has completely subsided, the color of the pigment appears, the crusts from the healed micropunctures dry out and fall off.
All clients are usually invited to correction. As a rule, the choice remains with the woman, but any master gives a guarantee of the result only after a second visit. Then you can correct unsatisfactory tattoo defects:
- the pigment color has faded, the color is too faded.
- the coating is uneven, unpainted areas have formed along the entire length of the eyebrows.
- due to swelling during the procedure, the contour turned out to be unclear, the shape of the eyebrows was slightly asymmetrical.
Examples of unsuccessful eyebrow tattooing - photo gallery
If the shape is incorrect, you need to either increase the width of the eyebrows or remove the tattoo. A good master will correct the shape a month after the procedure, when the swelling subsides. During the correction, the master can even out the eyebrows and make them the same color
These problems can be solved quite easily: the master applies paint of the same shade or, at your request, selects a different one, aligns the contour and shape, and completes the eyebrows so that they become the same.
By the time the procedure is repeated, the swelling subsides and it is practically painless. The final result is visible within a week, sometimes even earlier. If you follow all the recommendations of the artist, the tattoo will last up to 5 years.
Color correction to correct a bad tattoo
The technique of correcting unsuccessful permanent makeup using color correction allows you to remove an unwanted shade. The same method will help correct the shape of the eyebrows if they need to be made wider or longer.
The procedure is carried out by a special corrector:
- A concentrated chemical solution is prepared.
- The product is injected under the skin through micropunctures.
- A reaction occurs between the liquid and the pigment, causing the paint to appear on the surface.
- The master carefully removes the pigment.
The correction may be accompanied by pain and discomfort, so it is done in stages.
Unsuccessful tattooing in blue, red or gray colors is corrected by introducing a special pigment.
After correcting an unsuccessful tattoo with a color corrector, you can apply a brown pigment, closer to natural
To restore eyebrows that have acquired a bluish tint, use an olive corrector with the addition of yellow. The new color will be gray or light brown.
The tattoo turns blue when black pigment is introduced or when the tattoo is applied too deeply
To get rid of the blue color, several procedures are carried out until the natural gray or brown tint is restored. Eyebrows are painted using a line technique, applying a yellow or orange coloring pigment of a special corrector in an even layer.
Brown pigments are based on black, red, yellow and white.
The coloring pigment consists of several colors. Over time, under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, all its components are destroyed and removed from the body. Black, yellow and white colors gradually fade, but red, which is also in the base of brown eyebrow paint, does not. Because of this, any, even high-quality tattoo, can change its shade. Correcting the defect is not difficult; sometimes one procedure with an olive corrector is enough.
After this, the eyebrows will become light brown.
Consequences of unsuccessful permanent eyebrow makeup that can be eliminated by tattoo removal
In case of serious problems, if the tattoo is applied crookedly and apparently differs from natural eyebrows, there are several solutions:
How to choose a master
Tattooing must be performed by an experienced and competent specialist
. A cosmetologist can give you divine beauty, or ruin your entire face; you actually surrender yourself into his hands. So choose carefully:
- a good cosmetologist will not persuade you to do the procedure, say that you definitely need to fix your eyebrows;
- the professional is constantly improving, has a certificate of special training, and other documents that confirm his competence;
- The cosmetologist will definitely take the time for a consultation. The master will help you decide on the shade and shape of your eyebrows, advise you, and select the ideal option. A good master will never push you or get annoyed because you cannot finally decide and make a choice for a long time. A professional always understands how important this step is for a woman;
- the specialist will definitely ask you in detail and in detail about your state of health and its characteristics. He will also warn you about contraindications, describe the procedure and all the nuances in detail.
If you have any doubts, or you come to the salon, and the cosmetologist invites you to start without any questions, confidently look for another place and, of course, another specialist.
There is no more effective way to make your eyes expressive than eye tattooing. But sometimes it does harm.
Eye tattooing is an opportunity to be beautiful even in the morning or after leaving the sea-ocean. With the help of micropigmentation, eyebrows can be made thicker and in the shape that suits you without having to constantly adjust them. No face painting!
Using the same procedure, you can create the illusion of thick eyelashes and make perfectly even eyelashes. The ink is not injected very deeply, so this beauty lasts much less than a regular tattoo - about four to five years. But the principle of application is very similar, but a special machine is used for micropigmentation. This is also a good idea for ladies who wear contact lenses or glasses: applying mascara, liner or shadow without optics and with poor vision is not so easy. But many of those who dream of acquiring an expressive face with the help of a tattoo machine ask a completely logical question: is eye tattooing harmful and will there be unsightly consequences or hazardous to health? The question is necessary - health is only one thing, appearance too.
Possible complications after eyebrow tattooing
The regeneration period after tattooing may be accompanied by a feeling of discomfort and the body’s natural reactions to inflammation. Within 5–7 days after the procedure, the following is observed: The dried crust cannot be torn off, peeled off with nails, or combed, otherwise an infection will get under the skin
Fears of infection through an unsterile instrument are most often unfounded, especially if the procedure is performed in a salon. Infection of the injured surface of the eyebrows is possible only if there is a gross violation of sanitary standards or the use of unsterile instruments. As a rule, this is manifested by the formation of pustular rashes and is treated with antibacterial ointment.
An allergy can be not only to paint, but to painkillers
Individual reactions to the procedure can be unpredictable, such as excessive pain or a tendency to form keloid scars, when due to the large amount of connective tissue during healing, bluish or red-brown scars appear.
If low-quality materials are used, the procedure can cause hair loss.
