Fibrows in Amman: what they are, and is it the fiber technique?

Alaa Al Masri — Amman, Jordan Updated 4 min read

Fibrows are a style of microblading strokes, so they last 3 to 9 months and do not suit oily skin. They are not the fiber technique, which is a different technique lasting one to three years and suiting every skin type.

If you are looking for fibrows in Amman, this page answers plainly: what fibrows are, whether they are the fiber technique, how long they last, who they suit and who they do not, and where to find them in Abdoun.

What are fibrows?

Fibrows (also written fiber brows) are a style of microblading strokes. Microblading is manual work: I open a very fine incision in the surface layer of the skin with a thin blade and deposit pigment in it, and each incision becomes a hair stroke with a direction, length and curve that follows the growth of your own brow hair at that exact spot.

Fibrows and the fiber technique are not the same thing

The names are close, but they are two different techniques:

In short Fibrows take microblading's wear and its limits, because they are microblading. If you want the strokes closest to natural and the longest wear, the technique you mean is the fiber technique.

Who fibrows suit

  • Normal to dry skin. There the incision stays fine and keeps its edge.
  • A light brow or one with gaps, which needs filling rather than rebuilding.

And who they do not suit — said before you book

  • Oily or combination skin. Oil pushes the pigment out of the incision, so the edges of each stroke spread and within months it turns into a faded shadow. The alternatives: powder brows or micropigmentation.
  • A brow with an earlier tattoo. A fine incision cannot cover the old colour, so it is lightened first with removal sessions.
Why I say “no” Someone who has microblading on oily skin pays twice: once now, and again for the correction months later. Turning the case down is cheaper for you than accepting it.

How the session goes

  1. Consultation: skin type, any previous work, and what you want.
  2. Measuring and mapping: I draw the shape on your face to measure, and nothing begins until you see it in the mirror and approve it.
  3. Choosing the pigment to match your skin and hair.
  4. Topical numbing, then the work.
  5. Instructions: ointment and written aftercare before you leave.

Aftercare

  • Seven days: no water directly on the brow.
  • Two weeks: no pool, sea, sauna or hard exercise.
  • Do not pick the flakes — they pull pigment out with them and leave permanent gaps.
  • The colour looks dark in the first week and then lightens. Do not judge the result before healing is complete.

Where to get fibrows in Amman

The studio is in Abdoun, Queen Zein Al Sharaf Street, Amman, open every day from 10:00 to 19:00. I started working on brows in 2013, and before that I was a portrait painter.

Many clients come from outside Amman. Approximate driving time: Zarqa 40 minutes, Salt and Madaba about 45 minutes, Irbid an hour and a half. The session takes about 90 minutes, so it is done the same day, with follow-up over WhatsApp.

To book or ask about your brows, message me on WhatsApp at +962797373015. Details of the manual strokes are on the microblading page, and of the fiber technique on the fiber technique page. See also: which brow technique suits your skin?

A consultation settles which technique suits your skin and your face — no general rule fits everyone.
