Hybrid eyebrow tinting combines the best of both worlds: the intense color depth of a permanent tint and the skin tinting effect of a henna treatment – but without the typical disadvantages of classic henna dyes.
While henna often involves long processing times, uneven color results, and a rigid paste consistency , Hybrid Dye offers a liquid, precisely applicable formula that is also perfect for fine lines and clean mapping. The pigments penetrate deep into the hair structure , so the color doesn't just adhere to the surface like henna, but is intensely anchored in the hair and lasts longer .
The result? Perfectly defined brows with a rich, multidimensional color that looks powdered on the skin without appearing too blocky.
Furthermore, Hybrid Brow Dye offers flexibility : layering for ombré effects, precise lines for defined contours, and even skin coloring without patchy results – all in a shorter treatment time than with henna. And while henna is often perceived as drying, Hybrid Dye, thanks to nourishing ingredients like KeraVeg 18, Amla, and Aloe Vera (from the Elleebana brand), provides a treatment that combines color and care .
Hybrid Brow Dye is not just a trend, but a future-proof solution for studios that want to offer rich, well-groomed and defined brows with a long-lasting effect, without the effort of classic henna treatments.
