Ready to graduate from drawing your eyebrows every morning?

Everything you need to know about choosing the right technique and aftercare

​​​​​​​

✨ Drawing your eyebrows every morning is really such a hassle, isn’t it?

It takes several minutes to balance both sides, and you may worry that they will come off with sweat…

I recently tried eyebrow permanent makeup, and it was even better than I had imagined.

The key is “choosing a technique that suits you” and “thorough care during the first week after the procedure.”

Choosing the wrong technique in particular can lead to regret, so it was important to carefully consider your skin type and desired result.

The procedure took about two hours. Thanks to the numbing cream, the pain was only a slight prickling sensation.

Even reducing your makeup time by just 10 minutes a day means gaining approximately 60 hours of free time each year.

Your mornings feel completely different 💡

😭 Do you have any of these concerns?

□ Drawing my eyebrows every morning is a hassle

□ I can’t make both sides symmetrical

□ I don’t feel confident without makeup

□ I’m worried they might come off with sweat or water

□ Touching up my makeup is a hassle

I had been curious about eyebrow permanent makeup for a long time, but I was too afraid of a bad result to take the plunge…

But when I finally decided to try it, my life truly changed ✨

🎨 Basic Knowledge of Permanent Makeup

Duration: 1–3 years

Since pigment is inserted into the epidermis, it naturally fades over time.

Unlike tattoos, it is not permanent, so you can feel at ease.

Choose from 4 techniques

・Hair strokes (most natural)

A technique that inserts pigment as if drawing each individual hair.

Recommended for those seeking a natural-looking finish.

・Powder (makeup-like look・excellent staying power)

Creates a finish that looks softly drawn with powder.

It has a makeup-like look and is characterized by excellent color retention.

・Combo (hair strokes + powder: No. 1 in popularity)

A technique that combines hair strokes and powder.

Perfect for those who prioritize both a natural look and staying power💕

・Hair strokes (latest technology・ultra-realistic)

The latest technology for recreating hair strokes with the highest level of precision.

Recommended for those seeking the ultimate natural look.

🔍 Key Points for Choosing a Technique

I chose the combo technique.

I prioritized achieving both a natural look and staying power.

・Dry/normal skin → Hair strokes are recommended

・Oily skin → Powder lasts longer

・Can't decide → Combo is a safe choice

・Ultimate naturalness → Hair strokes

With hair strokes + powder, there’s zero awkwardness even without makeup.

Carefully considering your skin type and ideal finish is the key to success🗝️

💉 Treatment Process (Approx. 2 Hours)

1. Consultation & Design (Approx. 30 Minutes)

Discuss the ideal shape and color of your brows.

A professional will suggest a design while taking your facial balance into consideration.

2. Application of Numbing Cream (Approx. 20 Minutes)

Numbing cream is applied to reduce discomfort.

During this time, the anesthetic takes full effect.

3. Color Mixing (Approx. 10 Minutes)

A custom color is mixed to match your skin tone and hair color.

This step is important for achieving a natural finish.

4. Main Treatment (Approx. 30–60 Minutes)

The treatment finally begins.

Thanks to the numbing cream, the discomfort was limited to a slight prickling sensation.

5. Aftercare Instructions

They carefully explain how to care for your brows after the treatment.

How you care for them during this one week will greatly affect the final result!

The total time was approximately 2 hours💡

🌟 The Most Important Thing Is Aftercare

The Key to Success Is "The First Week After the Treatment"

The first week is extremely important.

How you spend this period can significantly affect how well the color settles.

【Things You Must Absolutely Follow】

・Apply the prescribed ointment regularly morning and night

・Do not rub the eyebrow area

・Never pick off the scabs

・NO saunas / swimming pools / strenuous exercise

・Avoid alcohol and smoking

Apparently, simply following these instructions can make a significant difference in how well the color sets.

I was anxious at first too, but thanks to following the instructions carefully, I achieved my ideal results✨

【Recovery Progress】

Days 1–3: Dark color (the darkest period)

The color looks dark immediately after the procedure.

But don't worry. This is a normal part of the healing process.

Days 4–7: Scab formation

Scabs will begin to form around the eyebrows.

This is the time when you need the most patience. Never pick them off!

Days 8–14: Scabs come off and the color temporarily looks lighter

After a week, the scabs came off and the color looked lighter, which made me panic, but this is also a normal part of the healing process.

It is important not to give up at this point and to wait.

Weeks 3–4: The color settles into its true shade

The color settled into its true shade within 3–4 weeks.

At this stage, the results were close to my ideal look🙆‍♀️

→ A retouch during weeks 4–8 enhances the final results

A retouch brings the results even closer to your ideal look.

It reinforces the areas that faded after the first session for a perfect finish💕

✅ Salon Selection Checklist

Be very careful when choosing a salon.

To avoid an unsuccessful outcome, check the following points.

✓ Rich portfolio (quality and quantity of case photos)

We recommend checking whether there are cases similar to your ideal look👀

✓ Use of disposable instruments

Hygiene is the most important. Make sure disposable instruments are used.

✓ Use of officially approved pigments (ingredient and lot management)

Check whether highly safe, officially approved pigments are used.

✓ Sufficient consultation time

Thorough consultations are a sign of a trustworthy salon.

✓ Many authentic reviews

Refer to reviews from people who have actually received the procedure.

✓ Must be a medical institution (a medical procedure in Japan)

In Japan, cosmetic tattooing is a medical procedure.

Be sure to receive it at a medical institution.

💖 Experiencing the benefits

・Save approximately 60 hours per year (10 minutes a day × 365 days)

Just cutting about 10 minutes off your morning makeup routine gives you this much extra time.

・Beautiful, symmetrical eyebrows

No more worrying about the balance between your eyebrows.

You can enjoy perfectly shaped eyebrows every day.

・Resists smudging for 24 hours

No problem even if you sweat or get wet.

You can enjoy pools and hot springs without worrying.

・Confidence without makeup

It looks completely natural even without makeup.

You can confidently show your bare face.

・Peace of mind when traveling or going to the gym

No need to worry about touching up your makeup.

You can feel at ease in any situation✨

⚠️ Important Notes

・Avoid during your period (increased risk of pain and bleeding)

Hormonal fluctuations can make you more sensitive to pain.

・Care during the first week immediately afterward affects the results

Following the aftercare instructions carefully is the key to a beautiful finish.

・Be cautious of salons with extremely low prices

Salons that are too inexpensive may have issues with their techniques or pigment quality.

・A patch test is essential if you are prone to allergies

If you may be allergic to pigments, be sure to have a patch test.

💰 Cost

Although the cost varies depending on the technique and region, it is surprisingly economical when calculated annually, including touch-ups.

Since the results last 1–2 years, I think the value for money is not bad either💰

When you consider the time spent on daily makeup and the cost of purchasing eyebrow pencils and powder, it is more affordable overall.

🌈 With brows that suit you, enjoy every day with more freedom and confidence

The 60 hours of free time per year you gain with permanent makeup.

Your mornings will feel completely different.
