NanoBrows & Permanent Makeup Bethesda, MD

Nano Brows are created using a permanent makeup machine and an ultra-fine needle to implant delicate, hair-like strokes into the skin. The strokes are carefully placed to blend with your natural brow hair for a soft, realistic result.

Nano Brows are created with a machine, while traditional microblading uses a manual handheld tool. The machine allows the artist to create very fine, precise strokes with less cutting of the skin. During your consultation, Marie will determine which technique is best for your skin, natural brow hair and desired result.

Yes. Natural-looking brows are our specialty. Every set is customized to your facial structure, natural hair growth, skin tone and existing brow shape. Our goal is to create realistic definition that still looks like you.

Nano Brows may be a good option for clients with sparse, uneven, overplucked or thinning brows. They may also be suitable for clients who want delicate hair strokes created with a machine. Your skin type and any existing permanent makeup must be evaluated before treatment.

Nano Brows can work for a variety of skin types, including some oily and mature skin. However, healed results vary from person to person. Marie will evaluate your skin and may recommend Nano Brows, Powder Brows or a combination technique based on which option is most likely to heal naturally and retain well.

Previous pigment must be very light—generally at least 90% faded—for new hair strokes to look clean and natural. If the old color or shape is still visible, removal or a different brow technique may be recommended. Please send clear, makeup-free photos or schedule a consultation for an evaluation.

Nano Brows typically last approximately 12–18 months before a color boost may be desired. Longevity depends on your skin type, lifestyle, skincare routine, sun exposure and how closely you follow the aftercare instructions.

Most clients describe the discomfort as manageable. A topical numbing product is used to help keep you comfortable throughout the treatment. Sensitivity varies from person to person.

Your Nano Brows appointment usually takes approximately 1.5–2 hours. This includes consultation, brow mapping, color selection and the treatment itself. We take the time needed to create a balanced, customized result.

Your brows will initially appear darker and more defined than the final result. As they heal, they may lightly flake and temporarily appear softer or uneven. The color gradually settles over the following weeks. Avoid picking or scratching and follow the aftercare instructions provided by your artist.

Permanent makeup commonly requires a perfecting session after the initial healing period. At that appointment, the healed result can be evaluated and any areas that need additional color or refinement can be addressed.

Yes. Your brow design and pigment color are customized for you. Marie will consider your facial structure, natural hair, skin tone and preferences. Your brows will be carefully mapped, and the shape will be reviewed with you before the treatment begins.
