Microblading FAQs

  • Microblading is a non invasive procedure where semi-permanent pigment is placed in the skin using a tattooing technique to create hair like strokes. This creates the illusion of more defined, fuller, thicker eyebrows.

  • The longevity of microblading can vary depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Generally, microblading can last between 12 to 18 months before a touch-up is required to maintain the desired shape and color.

  • Discomfort levels during microblading can vary from person to person. While some individuals may experience mild discomfort or a scratching sensation during the procedure, others may find it relatively painless. Topical numbing creams are typically applied beforehand to minimize any potential discomfort.

  • The microblading procedure typically takes about 2 to 3 hours to complete, including the consultation, brow mapping, numbing process, microblading treatment, and aftercare instructions. The duration may vary depending on the client's desired brow shape and thickness.

  • After microblading, the eyebrows may appear darker and more intense initially, but they will gradually fade as the skin heals. It's common to experience mild redness, swelling, and flaking in the treated area during the first week. Following proper aftercare instructions, such as avoiding excessive moisture and sun exposure, is essential to ensure optimal healing and pigment retention.

  • While microblading is suitable for most people, individuals with certain skin conditions, medical conditions, or contraindications may not be suitable candidates. It's important to consult with a qualified microblading artist who can assess your eligibility for the procedure and address any concerns or questions you may have.

 Microshading/Powder Brow FAQs

  • Microshading also referred to as “powder brow” or “ombre brow” technique is a cosmetic tattooing procedure that involves the application of semipermanent ink into the skin. Using a handheld device and tattooing needles, a shaded appearance is given to the eyebrow. This creates a fuller appearance to the eyebrow while providing a more sculpted arch.

  • While microblading involves creating hair-like strokes using a handheld tool, powder brows create a soft, powdered effect by depositing pigment into the skin using a machine or manual shading technique. Powder brows tend to have a more filled-in and defined appearance, making them suitable for clients who desire a bolder brow look.

  • The longevity of powder brows can vary depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Generally, powder brows can last between 1 to 3 years before a touch-up is required to maintain the desired shape and color.

  • Discomfort levels during the powder brows procedure can vary from person to person. While some individuals may experience mild discomfort or a scratching sensation during the treatment, others may find it relatively painless. Topical numbing creams are typically applied beforehand to minimize any potential discomfort.

  • The powder brows procedure typically takes about 2 to 3 hours to complete, including the consultation, brow mapping, numbing process, powder brow treatment, and aftercare instructions. The duration may vary depending on the client's desired brow shape and thickness.

  • After powder brows, the eyebrows may appear darker and more intense initially, but they will gradually fade as the skin heals. It's common to experience mild redness, swelling, and flaking in the treated area during the first week. Following proper aftercare instructions, such as avoiding excessive moisture and sun exposure, is essential to ensure optimal healing and pigment retention.

  • While powder brows are suitable for most people, individuals with certain skin conditions, medical conditions, or contraindications may not be suitable candidates. It's important to consult with a qualified powder brow artist who can assess your eligibility for the procedure and address any concerns or questions you may have.
