FACT: While the term "permanent brows" suggests that the results will last forever, it's not entirely true. The pigment used in the procedure will fade over time, and touch-ups are necessary every 1-2 years to maintain the desired look.​
Myth #2: Getting permanent brows is a painful process.
FACT: The process of getting permanent brows is not as painful as some people may think. The use of numbing cream and other techniques can help reduce any discomfort you may feel during the procedure.
Myth #3: Permanent brows only look good on certain people.
FACT: Permanent brows are customizable and can be tailored to suit your individual face shape, skin tone, and hair color. They look great on anyone who wants to enhance their brows' appearance.
Myth #4: Permanent brows will look fake and unnatural.
FACT: This myth is simply not true. A skilled and experienced artist can create natural-looking brows that enhance your features without looking fake or unnatural.
Myth #5: Permanent brows are only for women.
FACT: Permanent brows are for anyone who wants to enhance their appearance. Men can also benefit from the procedure and achieve a more defined and polished look.
Myth #6: Permanent brows require a lot of maintenance.
FACT: While it's important to follow aftercare instructions to ensure the best results, permanent brows do not require a lot of maintenance. They are a low-maintenance solution for anyone looking to enhance their brows.
Myth #7: Permanent brows will never look the same as natural brows.
FACT: While it's true that permanent brows are not the same as natural brows, they can still look very similar. A skilled artist can create strokes that mimic natural brow hairs, making the results virtually indistinguishable from natural brows.
Myth #8: Permanent brows will fade to a weird color.
FACT: This is only true if the pigment is not chosen correctly. A skilled artist will use high-quality pigments that will fade naturally over time without turning to a weird color.
Myth #9: Permanent brows are only for people with sparse brows.
FACT: Permanent brows are not just for people with sparse brows. They can also benefit anyone who wants to enhance their existing brows' shape and color.

Myth #10: Permanent brows are too expensive.
FACT: While permanent brows can be an investment, they are not too expensive when you consider the long-term benefits. The cost will vary depending on the artist and location, but it is worth it for many people to achieve the look they want.
