Why draw in eyebrows every time, when you can just tattoo them in?

I'm watching a reality show where female celebrities train in the army, and the commander accused one of the women of drawing in her eyebrows (no make-up is allowed) and she said she "tattooed them".

I'm now wondering why this isn't common practice???

It is! Many salons and tattoo artists offer it.

I get mine tinted instead. Much cheaper and costs under a fiver!

It's the latest thing amongst the eyebrow conscious

I'm thinking about getting it done along with Love and Hate on my knuckles

tinted? what is that exactly?
I'm not a fan of tattooed eyebrows. As above tinted eyebrows look nicer and more natural. I have dark thick brows anyway but I enjoy putting makeup on tbh.
Most of the ones I've up close seen look pretty ridiculous, I've struggled not to openly laugh.
It is and looks natural. It’s called eyebrow microblading

Tinting works great if you have decent eyebrows.
mine are thin and sparse after over plucking as a “fashionable teenager.
ive has them microbladed twice now.
it lasts around 2-3 years

Dyeing them.
If you’ve got decent eyebrows, have them shaped and then dyed. That’s only necessary if they’re fair though tbh

Is the Love and Hate thing a new trend? I think it looks dead classy.

oh is it when you put that paste/liquid on your eyebrows? I think my mum does that.

Yes. You can do them yourself.
Always test first though!

ah no I don't need it, I only need to trim them like once every 6 months (against my will btw). I just found it fascinating when the woman said she tattooed hers that's all😋.

You’re lucky.
Mine were plucked to death so are very thin and don’t grow. I’ve had mine microbladed, similar to tattoos

Why not to just have your natural eybrows, instead of paiting or tattoing fake ones?

Ahhhh my mum also overplucked as a teenager. She was always very protective of my eyebrows and refused to let me go too thin with them :laugh:

I used to pluck mine and I'd have a bald batch 1/3 away from the end of the eyebrow. still looked cool in my opinion.

what's microbladed?
