How are colours chosen for Men Microblading?

When it comes to choosing the colour for male microblading, we take into account the individual's natural hair and skin tone.

The colour must always compliment the natural features and enhance the overall look of the face. Generally, for men, the colour used in microblading is as close as possible to the real hair growth colour.

Selecting the right colours for male microblading is a crucial step in achieving natural-looking and flattering results. The choice of pigment colour should complement the individual's natural hair colour, skin tone, and desired outcome.

Here are some key considerations and steps for choosing colours for male microblading:

1. Consultation: The process begins with a thorough consultation with El. During this consultation, she will assess your skin tone, hair colour, and any specific preferences or concerns. It's essential for you to communicate their desired brow look and any specific goals they have in mind.

2. Hair Color Match: Matching the pigment colour to your natural hair colour is a primary consideration. The technician will select a pigmented shade that closely resembles the client's hair colour, taking into account factors such as undertones and variations within the hair.
   

   • For Dark Hair: If the client has naturally dark hair, a pigmented shade that matches or is slightly darker than their hair colour may be chosen.

   • For Light Hair: Clients with lighter hair may opt for a pigment that matches their hair colour or one that adds subtle definition and depth.

1. Skin Undertones: Skin undertones play a significant role in colour selection. Warm undertones may benefit from cooler-toned pigments, while cool undertones may pair well with warmer pigments. The technician will assess the client's skin undertones to ensure a harmonious and natural look.

2. Brow Intensity: The intensity of the brow colour should align with the client's preferences and desired look. Some men prefer a more defined and bold brow, while others opt for a softer, more natural appearance. The technician will adjust the pigment intensity accordingly.

3. Customisation: Microblading is highly customizable, and the technician can mix pigments to create a custom shade that perfectly suits the client. This level of customization ensures that the end result looks natural and enhances the individual's features.

4. Natural-Looking Results: The goal of male microblading is to create brows that appear as natural as possible. The selected pigment colour should blend seamlessly with the client's existing hair and facial features, avoiding any artificial or overly groomed appearance.

5. Patch Testing: Prior to the microblading procedure, it's common practice to perform a patch test with the selected pigment on a small area of the skin. This helps ensure that the client doesn't have an adverse reaction to the pigment and that the colour appears as desired.

6. Adjustments and Touch-Ups: After the initial microblading session, there may be a need for adjustments or touch-up sessions to fine-tune the colour and achieve the desired result. These follow-up sessions allow the technician to make any necessary pigment modifications.

In summary, choosing the right colours for male microblading involves a combination of factors, including the client's natural hair colour, skin undertones, personal preferences, and the technician's expertise. El will work closely with the client to select the most suitable pigment shades, ensuring that the end result is natural, flattering, and tailored to the individual's unique features and goals.
