What are Combo Brows?

Combo brows (also called hybrid brows) combine the best features of microblading and ombré powder brows into one stunning technique.

The front of the brow features delicate microblading hair strokes for a soft, natural, feathered appearance. The body and tail of the brow are filled with powder shading, adding depth, dimension, and a polished finish.

This combination creates the most realistic, multidimensional brow result possible. At A Pretty Girl Matter in Raleigh, NC, Victoria expertly blends these techniques to create brows that look naturally full and beautifully defined.

Benefits of Combo Brows

Most Dimensional Look

Combines texture and depth for the most realistic, multidimensional brow result.

Works on All Skin Types

The powder shading component makes combo brows suitable for oily skin types too.

Longer Lasting

The powder portion lasts longer than microblading alone, extending your results.

Natural Front

Hair strokes at the front create a soft, natural start that mimics real brow hairs.

Fuller Appearance

The shading adds density and fullness that microblading alone can't achieve.

Customizable

Adjust the ratio of strokes to shading based on your preferences and brow goals.

Who Should Get Combo Brows?

  • Those who want the best of both - Natural strokes AND defined fullness
  • Oily skin types - The powder component holds up better on oily skin
  • Sparse or thin brows - Creates maximum fullness and definition
  • Those who fill in brows daily - Replicate your makeup look permanently
  • Anyone wanting long-lasting results - Combo brows tend to last longer

The Gold Standard

Frequently Asked Questions About Combo Brows

Combo brows combine two techniques: microblading hair strokes at the front of the brow for a natural, feathered look, and powder shading through the body and tail for added depth and definition. This creates the most realistic, dimensional brow result.

Combo brows typically last 1-3 years depending on your skin type and lifestyle. The powder shading portion tends to last longer than the microblading strokes. Touch-ups are recommended annually to maintain optimal results.

Combo brows are often considered the best option because they combine the natural hair-stroke look of microblading with the longevity and fullness of powder shading. They work well on all skin types, including oily skin where microblading alone may fade faster.

Combo brows are ideal for those who want the most natural-looking yet defined brows. They're especially great for those with oily skin, sparse brows, or anyone who wants fuller, more dimensional brows that last longer than microblading alone.

Healing takes 4-6 weeks. Your brows will appear darker initially and may go through a patchy phase as they heal. The true color and texture emerge after full healing. A touch-up appointment 6-8 weeks later perfects the results.
