What is the primary goal when using pigments in microblading?

The primary goal when using pigments in microblading is to match the client’s natural hair color. This is crucial because the intention of microblading is to create natural-looking eyebrows that complement the client's facial features and existing hair color. Achieving a seamless blend with the natural brow hairs provides a more realistic appearance, which is essential for client satisfaction.

While using brighter colors can enhance the eyebrows in specific artistic styles, the fundamental aim in most microblading procedures focuses on enhancement through color matching rather than boldness. Creating an illusion of depth can also be a component of the microblading technique; however, it still relies on the pigments that closely mirror the natural hair shade to achieve that effect. Longevity of the tattoo is an important consideration too, as it relates to how long the pigments will last once applied, but it does not overshadow the initial goal of ensuring the color harmonizes with the client’s natural brows.
