FAQ

What is Microblading?

Microblading is the process of implanting pigment into the skin to give the appearance of natural hair. Although it’s classified as a permanent makeup tattoo, due to skin regeneration of the process, it will fade over time. For this reason, touchups are suggested once annually in order to keep the color fresh and the shape precise. Microblading is a subtle, natural enhancement that will create fuller and more natural-looking brows.

How long does this take?

The initial appointment will last between ninety minutes and two hours. First, we’ll have a design consultation, discussing the specifics of your ideal look. After we’ve created a design to your specification, the remainder of the session will consist of numbing the area and completing the permanent cosmetics procedure.

How to prep for my appointment

If you have reference pictures, please feel free to bring these to your appointment, along with the pencil or powder you’re currently using!

If you tint your brows, you will want to do so a minimum of 72 hours before your appointment.

Do not use Retin-A near the brow area for two weeks before or after the procedure.

Plan to avoid water for 7-10 days following your appointment. This includes pools, lakes, saltwater, extreme sun exposure, and even excessive sweating, so plan your vacations accordingly!

No Botox, fillers, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, or any similar skin process for at least two weeks prior to the procedure, and for two weeks after.

Can I still book an appointment if I've had previous tattooing or Microblading?

You will need to email me a picture of your brows without makeup on

What I can expect after my appointment?

  • In the hours after your appointment, your brows will appear much darker and bolder than they will heal, due to oxidation in the surface layer of your skin. This is normal. Your brows may also appear warmer in color, and you may experience some redness or swelling around the treated area, which typically disappears within 48 hours.
  • Around day three, you may notice some flaking or light scabbing. Do not pick! Doing so could result in a loss of pigment in those areas.
  • Please also note that brows may appear spotty or patchy until the entire brow has finished healing. You may notice that some areas appear very light, or as if they’ve lost pigment entirely. This is also normal: after the brows peel, the epidermis will be thicker, causing muting, hiding, or diffusing of the pigments underneath. The epidermis will normalize over the next 4-6 weeks, at which point the softened pigment will appear more clearly on the surface of the skin."
