What is microblading? It is a type of eyebrow architecture that is all about creating the best brow shape for your face. Whether you have skinny/sparse brows, are tired of have them wear off throughout the day or simply don’t want to have to fill them in, microblading may be your solution! It delivers semi-permanent ink under the surface of the skin with tiny, hair-like strokes. The result? Natural, fuller brows you wake up with.
The procedure starts with sanitizing your brow area. A numbing cream is then applied, which, makes this a painless experience! Your brow specialist will then draw out the shape that best fits your face and choose the proper pigment. Once the numbing cream has activated, your specialist will begin drawing strokes, which, will last about 30-40 minutes. An ointment is applied when finished to help soothe the area.
After the initial appointment, you will need to schedule a follow-up appointment in 6 weeks to fill in any faded areas within the brow. After that, your brows will last between 12-18 months depending on your skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure and products you use.
Aftercare is extremely important for this service! Immediately following your appointment, brows will be slightly darker and slightly red but will fade with healing. Scabbing will occur, which also causes brows to look darker, and will heal within 3-4 weeks. An ointment may be applied to aid in the healing process.
