Techniques like hyperrealism and nano brows create soft, gradient effects with lifelike hair strokes. Ombre or powder brows, start lighter at the front and gradually darkening towards the tail. These different methods mimics the appearance of naturally filled-in brows, adding volume and definition while maintaining a soft, natural look.
