Hi guys, it's Wengie

ハイみんな、ウェンジ―です

Today I wanted to talk about my eyebrow tattooing experience

今日は眉毛アートメイクについて話したいと思います

And the reason why I got my eyebrows tattooed was a few reasons

眉毛アートをした理由は　いくつかあって

One of them was that my eyebrows don't grow back as quickly as they used to

1つは、以前ほど眉毛が早く生えなくなったから

And I used to have really thick eyebrows that didn't really need to be filled in that much

前はすごく眉毛が濃くて、そこまで描く必要も無かったの

In fact I would have to pluck them because my hair would be really long and really thick

眉毛が長くて濃かったから抜いてたの

Recently, I've made a mistake of over plucking and over shaving part of it

抜いたり剃ったりし過ぎたことに　最近気付いたの

And I found that is taking ages for my hair to grow back

毛が生えてくるまでに　すごく時間が掛かるって気付いた

And therefore I ended up with some sparse eyebrows that I've had to fill in regularly

その結果　眉毛がまばらになって、いつも描かなきゃいけなくなった

And if you're like me, I don't know why but I cannot fill in my eyebrows the same every single time

私みたいな人もいるかな。なぜか毎回同じ眉毛の形に描けないの

I must've missed out on the 'you can draw good eyebrows' gene or something like that

たぶん「キレイな眉毛が描けない病」でも持ってるのかな

But I've tried and it's very, very difficult

いつも頑張るけど、すっごく難しい

Also I was born with eyebrows that are a little bit uneven

しかも左右の眉毛がちょっと違う形なの

So even naturally, my eyebrows weren't exactly even

だから何もしなくても眉毛の形が違うんだよね

So it made it really hard for me to fill them in properly as well on top

だからよけい眉毛を描くのが難しくなる

Because I had to kind of like adjust the height of my eyebrows 'cause one is a little bit higher than the other

片方の眉の高さを調整しなくちゃいけないの。眉の高さが違うからね

And I think it's because maybe I like lift my eyebrows too much when I talk

たぶん話してる時に眉毛をよく上げるのが原因かも

And the muscles are different on one side of my face than the other

だから表情筋が均等じゃないんだね

But yeah, my eyebrows are a little bit uneven as well

だから眉毛も均等じゃないの

The other thing was I also bleached my brows as well

2つ目は、眉毛をブリーチしたから。

So when I wake up in the morning my brows are really, really light almost like I don't have any eyebrows

だから朝起きると眉毛がすごく明るくて無いように見えるの

And they've kind of grown back dark again, recently

最近少し眉毛が生えてきたし

But yeah, I just wanted to make things easier for me

ただもっと楽にしたいの

So that I don't have to fill them in as regularly

毎日眉毛を描く必要もなくなるし

And then I could wake up in the morning without looking like I have no eyebrows

それに朝起きて眉毛が無いなんてこともないし

So I decided to do this eyebrow tattoo because I just felt like it'll make everything easier for me

楽ちんそうだから眉毛アートをすることにしたの

If I had someone to draw in my eyebrows to begin with, it would be a good guide for me when I put on makeup

始めから誰かに眉毛を描いてもらっていたら、メイクする時に簡単だしね

And yeah, I get to live with great brows all the time

しかもいつもキレイな眉でいられる

The reason why I've chosen to do this now and not before is that

今までしなかったけど、最近しようと決めた理由は

technology has changed a lot for eyebrow tattooing

眉毛アートメイクの技術がすごく変わったから

Previously, my mom has also tattooed her eyebrows but the previous technology was pretty much permanent

私のママも眉タトゥーしてるんだけど、以前の技術ではずっと消えなかったの

And any tattooing thing that you did would have pretty much lasted for the rest of your life

タトゥーってほとんど一生消えないよね

In addition, the pigments they use were black and it would turn this bluey, greeny shade as well

それに色素が黒で、しだいに青や緑っぽく色あせる

So it wasn't something I wanted to do and also I don't think I can commit to a brow shape for the rest of my life

だから私はしたくなかったし、これから一生　眉の形を変えられないのはイヤだったの

Or risk having to remove the tattoo

消すこともできないし

So recently Koreans have developed this technology, it's called 3D eyebrow tattoo

でも最近韓国で３Ｄ眉タトゥーという技術ができて

Or semi-permanent eyebrow tattoo

セミ・パーマネント（永遠）眉タトゥーともいうよ

And it's supposed to last anywhere between a couple of months to up to a year

2か月～1年くらいもつって言われてて

Now, the reason why this procedure lasts a lot less than the permanent tattoo procedure

以前の一生残るタトゥーより、かなり短くなった理由は

Is mainly because they are tattooing more on the superficial part of the skin

肌の表面に近い所に入れていって

They're not going as deep as the original permanent tattoo, so it will fade

前のタトゥーみたいに深くないから、色あせていくの

Because it's on the surface layer of the skin that sheds and exfoliates

肌の表面の層だから剥がれ落ちていくんだね

And so depending on how often your skin sheds and exfoliates it might last shorter or longer time

自分の肌のターンオーバーの早さによって、短いか長持ちするか変わってくる

So you can either do it again and change the shape if the trend has changed

だから眉のトレンドが変わったら　また違う形にできる

That's the reason why I decided to do it because I know it won't be permanent

一生じゃないって分かったから　することに決めたの

But I know it would last a couple of months and save me a lot of time from drawing in my brows

でも2、3ヶ月はもつから眉毛を描く時間を節約できる

So this Korean 3D eyebrow tattoo is super popular in Korea

だから韓国では　この眉アートがすごく人気だよ

A lot of women are going to do this now

今では　たくさんの女性がやってる

Because they realise it's a lot of work if you had to draw in your eyebrows every day

毎日眉を描くのが面倒だって気付いたんだね

And for people that have a career or go to work on a daily basis

毎日仕事などに行く人にとって

Yeah, it pretty much saves you so much time especially if you're busy

忙しい人には　かなり時間の節約になるよ

In addition, your eyebrows won't wash-off when you sweat, or when it's hot and when you go into the pool

それに汗をかいても、暑い日にプールに行っても消えないし

And it just stays there, which is amazing

ずっとキレイなままだから最高なの

The difference between a 3D eyebrow tattoo an a normal eyebrow tattoo is that

3Ｄと普通のアートメイクの違いは

3D eyebrow tattooing they actually draw the individual hairs

3Ｄは一本一本の毛を描いていくの

So when you look closely it almost looks like an eyebrow hair because they use little strokes

だから間近で見ても毛のように見えるから本物みたいなの

Instead of just doing a whole block of colour

眉毛全体を塗るよりもね

So that's another improvement as well and it looks super natural

これも進歩の一つで、すごく自然に見えるよ

And with 3D eyebrow tattooing you can have two types

3Ｄには2タイプのアートメイクがあって

One is machine drawn, which is they use a tattoo machine

1つ目は、タトゥーの機械で描く方法

And they basically draw lines and theses line will end up looking more straight and more parallel

線を描いていくんだけど、ストレートで平行な線になる

The other kind of stroke is actually a hand drawn stroke and this is the style that my particular tattooist use

2つ目は、手で描いていく方法で、私はこっちにしたよ

And I think it's much better because hand drawn stroke are, I guess, more imperfect

私は手で描く方が良いと思う。だってその方が完璧な線じゃなくなるから

Just like natural hair, they're not exactly parallel and they're all kind of different

自然な毛みたいに、正確に平行じゃないし、それぞれ違うし

And I feel that this kind of stroke actually makes your eyebrows look

それにこっちの線の方が

A lot more natural than a machine drawn stroke

機械より　もっと自然な感じがする

But it's completely up to you what style you choose

でも自分次第だから好きな方を選んでね

It's just good to know what you can choose from

知っていれば選べるから良いよね

So these are the two kind of strokes that you can actually choose from

この2つから選ぶことが出来るの

When you're choosing an eyebrow tattoo artist

自分の眉アーティストを選ぶ時にね

So now, I just want to walk you guys, through the process of actually tattooing your eyebrows

今から眉毛アートの実際のプロセスについて話すね

So I turned up to the tattoo place and basically

まずはアートメイクのお店に行くんだけど

What you need to do is to remove all the makeup from your eyebrows

眉毛の化粧は全てとらなきゃいけないの

Turn up with a clean eyebrow or they may wipe it off for you

化粧せずに行ってもいいし、お店の人が落としてくれるかも

And the next thing you do is you actually choose the shape of your eyebrow

次は眉毛の形を決めるよ

And my tattoo artist had all these pre-drawn shapes onto these pieces of paper, which was really awesome

私がしてもらった人は色んな眉毛の形が紙に書いてあって、すごく良かった

The great thing I loved about that person was she actually recommended

一番良かった事は彼女がおススメしてくれたのが

what was the most popular amongst young people in Korea

韓国の若者の間で一番人気の眉毛だったこと

And that was a straighter, thicker brow. Which is what I chose

まっすぐで、太めの眉を選んだの

And she'll basically draw on your eyebrows an outline of the shape the eyebrow that you chose

自分が選んだ眉の形を実際に書いてもらって

And then you can just kind of have a look at what it looks like on your face

どんな感じか見ることが出来る

And you can say yes or no or make them adjusted

それでokとかダメとか言ったり、調整してもらうの

And after the shape of your brow it's decided, then you just pick the colour of your brow

眉の形が決まったら、次は毛の色を選ぶよ

I chose a medium ash brown; the lightest colour is sort of like a medium brown

私が選んだのはミディアムアッシュブラウンで、それが一番明るい色だったの

Which is fine because it actually fades over time so it becomes a nice colour

普通の茶色だったけど、だんだん色あせていくからもっと良い色になるよ

For those of you guys, that have dark hair you can choose between like

暗い髪の色の人は

A warm brown, an ash brown or even a darker grey colour

茶色やアッシュブラウンとか、暗めのグレイでもいいね

So for people with black hair, a grey colour is actually better

黒髪の人はグレイの方が良いと思う

Than black per say cause actually looks more natural

真っ黒よりナチュラルに見えるから

Once you've chosen the colour she basically mixes that colour and the numbing cream it's applied

色が決まったら彼女は麻酔クリームとカラーを混ぜる

And the numbing cream is applied onto your brows just to make the whole process comfortable

麻酔クリームは眉毛に塗って痛くないようにするんだよ

Because the needle's actually going into your skin and can feel quite painful

だって針を使うから、けっこう痛いの

And this numbing cream really just makes you comfortable throughout the whole procedure

この麻酔クリームを塗ると施術中そんなに痛くなくて

And she had this special Korean numbing cream that was suppose to work really, really well

特別な韓国の麻酔クリームだったからすごく効果があった

So I laid there with relaxing music for about 15 to 20 minutes until the numbing cream worked

麻酔が効くまで15～20分くらい音楽を聴いてリラックスして

And then basically the numbing cream it's wiped off

そしたら麻酔クリームを拭きとるの

And then she uses this sort of needle, this hand drawn tattoo pen needle thing that she had

針のような、手書き用のタトゥーペン針を使って

And started drawing the colour in, stroke by stroke

一本一本描いて色を入れていくの

And she would work on one side of your eyebrow, then do the next

片方し終えたら、もう片方に移って

And work back onto the other side of the eyebrow

残った片方も終わらせるの

And depending on the style of strokes that you chose, will either be a machine tattoo pen

自分が選んだ一本の毛の形によって、機械のタトゥーペン

Or like her, she had a manual tattoo pen

もしくは私の時と同じ手動のペンを使うよ

Each individual stroke it's then drawn with the shape that you have in mind

一本ずつ自分が選んだ眉毛が描かれていくの

And this is the longest part of the process

ここが一番長い工程

After the numbing cream is applied, the actual tattooing process feels like

麻酔クリームを塗った後の感覚は

Kind of like someone's scratching your skin

誰かに肌を掻かれてるような感じ

Is not completely painful and if it is, you can ask them to apply some more numbing cream

そこまで痛くない。もし痛かったらもっと麻酔クリームを塗ってもらえるか聞いてみて

And wait while they move on to the other side of your eyebrows

今やってる方の眉毛が終わるまで待ってね

But it was very, very bearable. I had a tattoo done before

でも本当に我慢できる感じだった。タトゥーしたことあるけど

And this was much more painful because I didn't have numbing cream when I did this tattoo

こっちの方が痛かった。麻酔クリームなんてなかったから

So yeah, it just basically feels like someone's scratching your eyebrows, it's not too bad

本当に誰かに眉毛を掻かれてる感じでそこまで痛くなかった

On the scale of 1 to 10, I would say the pain would have been around a 5 so it's definitely bearable

痛みを1から10に例えるなら、5くらいだから我慢できるよ

And then that is the longest process, you basically have each stroke drawn in

一本ずつ描いていくから、ここが一番長くて

And after it's drawn in she basically applies an ointment

描き終わったら軟膏を塗ってくれて

And for the next week, you'll be applying this ointment about three times a day

翌週は1日に3回軟膏を塗るの

Just to keep the area moisturised and soft

幹部を保湿してソフトにするためにね

If you have a tattoo done as well, you'd have the same thing

タトゥーしたことある人は、その時と同じだね

And then you can use the ointment for three days and then Vaseline for the other four days for the week

3日間軟膏を塗って、あとの4日はワセリンを塗る

And just to keep the area moisturised, and so it won't scab

幹部を保湿しておけば、カサブタが出来ないの

Now, the whole process from beginning to end, took about an hour and a half and two hours

始めから終わりまでだいたい、1時間半から2時間で

Depending on the amount of strokes that you need, and the condition of the eyebrows and things like that

必要な毛の量や、眉の状態などによって変わってくる

It could take shorter or longer

早く終わるかもしれないし、長いかもしれない

Overall, I'm really, really loving the results

結果的に私すごく気に入ってるの

So this what my eyebrows look like before I got it tattooed

これは眉アートする前の眉毛

And this is straight after I got my eyebrows tattooed

これが眉アートし終わったばかりの眉毛

And for the first week or two weeks, it would actually be very, very dark

始めの1、2週間はすごく眉毛が濃いの

And for the first week as well, you're actually not allowed to apply any eyebrow products on it

しかも1週目は眉毛に何もつけちゃいけない

It doesn't look too bad. If you have dark hair, it would look completely normal with this eyebrow colour

そこまで見た目は悪くなくて、暗い髪の人には普通で

And you will look completely natural

ナチュラルに見えるよ

The first week, however you will just look a bit shiny 'cause you'll have gel on your eyebrows

でも一週目はジェルを塗るから少しテカってるの

So if you're planning to get this done and you have any major events

もし何かイベントがあって、眉アートしようと考えてるなら

Do it one week in advance or two weeks in advance

1、2週間前には　しておいた方がいいよ

For myself by the second week it was still quite dark

私は2週目でもまだかなり濃い色だった

And you guys have commented on how dark my eyebrows are compared to my hair colour

髪の色より眉の色が濃いって、皆コメントしてたよね

It has faded a lot now and I've actually created a light eyebrow colour simply by using an eyebrow mascara

今ではかなり色あせて、ブロウマスカラ塗るだけだよ

And I pretty much don't fill in my eyebrows anymore

眉毛はほとんど描いてないの

I just apply the eyebrow mascara and I've got a full brow

ブロウマスカラ塗るだけで整うよ

And that makes things so much easier for me. I'm super happy with the shape

だからすっごく楽になったの。眉の形も気に入ってるし

And the process is, after your first session, you might want to do a follow-up session

1度目の施術が終わったら、再度施術した方がいいかも

What happens is the colour will actually fade out

色があせていくから

And the actual shape might become thinner than you wanted

眉の形が理想より細くなることがあるの

So a touch-up needs to be done about a month after you do your first session

だから一か月後くらいに　お直しした方がいいよ

To just fix the shape up a bit, or filling in, or do any changes

形や色などを少し直すためにね

Because it's unpredictable how much it will fade the first time

一度目はどれだけ色あせるか誰にも分からないから

And usually after the second session you've got the perfect shaped brow

二度目の施術が終わると、たいてい完璧な眉に仕上がるよ

So I'm yet to do my second session but I'm still already really happy with how it turned out

私はまだ二度目をしてないけど、すでにとても満足してる

I would totally do it again and it's really made my life a lot easier a lot more convenient

またやると思う。だってすごく楽になったし、便利だから

Especially when it comes to my brows

私の眉は特にね

This procedure is perfect for people that don't have a lot of time to do their eyebrows

眉アートは忙しい人にピッタリだよ

May not be good at doing their eyebrows, and may find it difficult to draw in the shape everyday

眉毛を描くのが苦手な人や、毎日面倒だと思う人とか

Or people that have really sparse eyebrows from either genetically being born

眉毛がもともと薄い人とか

With less eyebrow hair or have over plucked

抜きすぎて眉毛がまばらな人

The price of this procedure it cost me about a hundred and fifty to two hundred dollars for your first session

初めての施術にかかった費用は約150～200ドル

And the follow-up session is around a hundred to a hundred and fifty dollars

再度の施術は約100～150ドル

This may change depending how much tattoo work is needed on your eyebrows and also who you go to

でも必要な眉の量や、お店によって違うかも

The person I go to is really, really, reasonable. You can pay up to 300, 400 dollars as well

私がしてもらった人はすごく安かったけど、300、400かかる所もあるよ

Depending on where you go to, so I don't know how much it costs in your local area

あなたの地域では　いくらか分からないし

You're going to have to find out who does this and who is best for you

どこでやってるか、誰がベストかは自分で探す必要があるよ

But I can only tell you how much I paid myself

私は自分が払った価格しか教えられないからね

So yeah, that is my 3D eyebrow tattooing experience
