Why We’re Seeing More Colour Corrections Than Ever

Lately at LondonBrowClinic, I’ve noticed a worrying trend: more and more clients are coming to us to have their brows corrected after work done elsewhere. The most common problem? The colour has shifted to greeny-blue or orange tones — something that should never happen when the correct pigments are used.

Why is this happening?

The truth is, many artists and clinics are cutting corners. Instead of using professional-grade semi-permanent makeup pigments (formulated specifically for delicate facial skin), they’re turning to tattoo inks. Tattoo inks were never designed for brows — they’re created for body art, not for work that sits in the face and is expected to fade naturally and gracefully.

So why do some artists use them?

Because they’re cheaper. In fact, true semi-permanent pigments can cost up to 50 times more than tattoo inks. With today’s economic pressures, clients are understandably searching for cheaper treatments, and many artists are trying to maintain profit margins by cutting their own costs. Unfortunately, this compromise comes at a very real cost to the client — your face, your confidence, and your long-term results.

Why we would never make this compromise

At LondonBrowClinic, our philosophy is simple: your face is priceless. We will never jeopardise the quality of our work or the health of your skin by using inferior products. Every pigment we use is carefully chosen, premium-grade, and designed for semi-permanent makeup. That means:

• Natural fade over time (no strange colour shifts)

• Safe and consistent healing

• Long-term confidence in your results

Brows are not the place to gamble with shortcuts. What saves money in the short term often ends up costing more in the long run — both financially, when correction work becomes necessary, and emotionally, when your self-confidence takes a hit.

The takeaway

If you’re considering a brow treatment, please do your research and ask the right questions: What pigments are being used? Are they true semi-permanent pigments or tattoo inks? Your future self will thank you.

At LondonBrowClinic, we will always prioritise quality, safety, and artistry over profit margins. Because your brows should enhance your confidence — not leave you searching for a fix.
