Feather eyebrows, alternatively termed micro feathering, represent a form of eyebrow tattooing that augments the natural contour of the eyebrows. This is achieved by adding extra marks on the skin, mimicking single hair strands. This technique ensures enduring outcomes and aids in concealing patches with sparse hair, enhancing thickness, modifying the arch shape, and achieving the ideal eyebrows long sought after.

Eyebrow feathering, a variant of cosmetic tattooing specifically for eyebrows, generally maintains its appearance for around 18 months. 

Eyebrow feathering is advised for individuals possessing dry to typical skin types with comparatively dense eyebrows and who wish to improve them. This procedure applies to individuals with thinner brows, though traditional microblading often produces more authentic-looking outcomes when constructing eyebrows from scratch.

Micro feathering is a method where hair-like strokes are implemented to generate the impression of inherent fullness instead of an artificial appearance. This leads to naturally fuller eyebrows that seamlessly complement any cosmetic style.

Before an Eyebrow Tattooing Procedure, an initial consultation is necessary. During this consultation, your therapist will examine your brows to ensure enough natural hair to work with. Typically, a consultation lasts for an hour. Before the session, you must grow your brows because microfeathering uses your existing brows as a base for tattooing.

This is different from microblading, which creates new brows entirely. In your first feathering session, a brow technician will use a blade to make precise, hair-like incisions. These incisions will deposit dye into the top layer of your skin, filling in the gaps in your brow’s dense areas. A second session will be scheduled for six to eight weeks later. Any faded or incomplete pigmentation will be filled in with additional strokes during this session. Each session typically lasts for about two hours. 

Factors such as your eye colour, natural skin tone, and hair colour will be considered when colour matching. Additionally, brows can be subtly filled or wholly reshaped.

During the initial days following the procedure, feathered eyebrows the colour of your eyebrows may appear darker. However, this temporary effect will fade as your brows heal and adapt to the pigment. 

The recovery period for feather eyebrows necessitates some rest, as the affected skin requires time to recuperate. The healing journey for feather brows is manageable, yet it encompasses several stages that might cause minor discomfort.

The healing phases for feather eyebrows include:

• Early signs include swelling, redness, soreness, and eyebrows appearing too dark.
• Formation of scabs.
• The scabs flake off, revealing pigment that seems lighter beneath.
• Over several weeks, the colour slowly darkens.

During the initial fortnight, adhering to a post-treatment regimen is vital to facilitate effective healing of your brows and avert possible infections.

In the healing phase, it’s typical for some pigment to fade from the skin, leading to uneven or lighter areas in the eyebrows. To rectify this, a follow-up session is advised after 6-8 weeks to apply additional pigment, enhance outcomes, and extend the eyebrows’ durability. 

Feather brows naturally diminish over time, usually within 18 months. Periodic touch-ups are suggested to preserve the preferred look. Post the initial enhancement, many clients opt for an annual colour refresh. This typically suffices to maintain the brows’ vibrancy, though more regular enhancements can be undertaken if fading happens quicker.

Clients with oilier skin might need more frequent touch-ups. 

Yes, feather eyebrows can be removed if you no longer want them. Currently, there are three methods for successful brow tattoo removal.

• Laser removal
• Saline removal
• Glycolic acid removal

These methods are effective for removing old microfeathering. However, if you experience a mishap requiring immediate removal, saline removal and glycolic acid removal are the only options. It is crucial to perform these procedures within the first 48 hours after the treatment before the eyebrows begin to heal. If healing has already commenced, waiting 6-8 weeks is necessary.
