What the term means.
Colouring fine or pale hairs can reveal more of the existing outline. The fuller-looking result comes from making hair visible, rather than increasing the number of hairs. Shade selection concerns the intended finish as well as natural colouring.
A traditional tint primarily targets the hair. Some products leave a temporary surface mark, but a deliberate skin-staining product is a different choice. Tinting, waxing and lamination therefore describe separate effects even when combined in one appointment.
The technical details.

- Existing eyebrow hair

These are industry definitions. Product names, profiles and availability vary; your artist selects the actual system and construction for your appointment.
A common question.
Will tint fill a completely hairless gap?
Hair tint needs hair to colour. A temporary skin stain and permanent makeup are different options with different treatment processes.
