Quick Answer
Combination brows blend fine hair-stroke detail at the front of the brow with soft ombre shading through the body and tail, giving the most hair-realistic yet fully defined semi-permanent brow result Sandra offers.
About the technique
Combination brows take the most natural elements of hair-stroke work and pair them with the longevity and depth of ombre shading. Fine, crisp strokes are placed through the front third of the brow to mimic individual hairs, while the mid and tail are shaded for fullness and shape. It suits clients who want texture and realism at the front with more graphic definition through the arch and tail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most clients describe the sensation as mild scratching or pressure rather than sharp pain. Sandra applies a topical numbing cream before and during the procedure, and most people find it far more comfortable than they expect.
