Microblading is a popular semi-permanent makeup technique used to create natural-looking eyebrow hair strokes. It involves using a handheld tool with tiny needles to deposit pigment into the skin, resulting in fuller and more defined brows. This procedure is often chosen by individuals with thin or sparse eyebrows, or those looking to fill in gaps or reshape uneven brows. During the procedure, a technician carefully measures and maps out the desired shape and placement of the new eyebrows to suit the individual's face. The pigment chosen matches the client's natural hair color or desired look, and it is deposited into the skin through small incisions made with the microblade tool.

How Long Does Microblading Last?
Permanent makeup may undergo slight fading or color changes over the years. The longevity of the pigments varies depending on factors such as skin type, sun exposure, and individual healing processes. Nevertheless, advancements in pigment formulations and application techniques have led to improved color retention, providing lasting results. Microblading should last anywhere from 1 year to 3 years before requiring a touch-up.
How Long Does Microblading Takes to Heal?
Your new eyebrows will go through several phases during the healing cycle. The pigment will appear very unnatural looking immediately after the procedure. The color of the pigment will appear much darker the next day.
The entire healing process will take from 10 - 14 days depending on your body regeneration and age. Please avoid wet activities that expose your skin heavily to water or your own sweat like workout or swiming for the first two-week. The area will be fully healed 30 days after the procedure was done.
Is Permanent Makeup Expensive?
"You get what you pay for"
You are paying for the value, detailed and skill of a well trained professional artist who is performing the microblading technique on you. Hence the price is uncomparable and may vary depend on who you are working with.
What Kind of Food to Avoid after The Procedure?
After a microblading procedure, it is important to avoid certain types of food in order to ensure proper healing and the best results. Some foods to avoid include spicy foods, as they can cause irritation and inflammation in the treated area. Additionally, it is advised to avoid foods that are high in salt, as they can lead to retention of fluids and swelling. Alcohol and caffeine should also be avoided, as they can dehydrate the body and slow down the healing process.
Avoid Water for The First 24 Hours !
After having microblading done, it is recommended to avoid water for at least 24 hours. This is because during the healing process, the pigment needs time to settle into the skin and any exposure to water can disrupt this process. Water can cause the pigment to fade or be washed away completely.
It is important to follow this recommendation as it will ensure that the microblading results are long-lasting and satisfactory. During the first 24 hours after the procedure, it is best to avoid activities that involve water, such as swimming, showering, or washing the face.
Does Microblading Hurt?
Because a numbing cream is applied, discomfort is typically described as minimal.
A lot of our clients describe the experience similar to intensified tweezing or threading, while some fall asleep during the procedure.
Who Should Not Get Microblading Done?
There are many factors to decide whether or not a person is a good candidate for microblading. The most crucial deciding factors depends on the client's skin health and condition. This type of permanent tatoo is not suitable for only skin or if you have any pre-existing health conditions or are on any kind of medications, it may be best for you to wait untill you body is heal before booking a microblading procedure.
Does Microblading Scar?
Microblading itself will not cause scarring. What can cause scarring after a microblading procedure is picking at the healing skin. This is why it is extremely important to make sure you WILL NOT pick at any shredding/flaking skin after they have gone through a microblading procedure. Picking could result in the loss of pigment as well as scarring.
How can I retain good color with microblading?
Microblading works best for those with normal to dry skin. Those with more oily skin can still get great results, however, details may fade sooner. For very oily skin, we recommend a combination or powder brow. Please avoid blood thinners (alcohol, caffiene, nSAID pain relievers, fish oils, etc.) and heavy sweating the day of your procedure and during healing. Any fluid that comes from inside the body (such as oil, sweat or blood) can flush pigment out of the skin while healing, which is why oily skin does not hold hairstrokes as well. With ombré or powder brows, there is more pigment placed in the brow, so even if some doesn't stay, there will be plenty of color left to heal.
