There are two main methods of permanent eyebrow makeup: micropigmentation (typically done with a machine) and microblading (applied with a hand tool and ideal for creating light, wispy hair strokes).

3D Hair Strokes is done using a machine technique designed to resemble realistic, hair like strokes. You would want this option if you have little to no natural brow hair to give your brows a more natural look.
The "Combo" is a combination of a machine shading technique and the 3D hair stroke hair stroke technique. This technique is perfect for the clients who like the look of a soft penciled or powdered eyebrow or for clients wanting a more defined look throughout the entire brow.
Ombre is a permanent powdered brow technique for clients who prefer fuller results than hair strokes, but still want them to appear very soft. This look resembles daily makeup done with an eyebrow pencil or eyebrow shadow.
We specialize in very natural looking eyeliner, so we only perform certain types. The procedure takes about 1.5 hours. We at Permanent Makeup in Maine refuse to (and we strongly advise against) PMU cat eye liner, PMU colored liner, and even black liner on lighter skin tones. Brown with a drop of black is usually a more flattering fit. If you do find a specialist who will give you PMU cat-eye liner, expect it to droop and crack in appearance as you age. You're better off avoiding it.
