Microblading
Microblading is an innovative semi-permanent procedure that is used to enhance ones existing brows. The pigment is manually deposited into the first layer of skin (epidermis), using a featherlite needle. Each set of brows are measured and specific to each client, highlighting the shape, contour, eyes and structure of each individuals face. The pigments are also specific to each client, and are able to match or enhance existing brow hair. Ombre and powder brow (shading) techniques are now available to add to an initial Microblading session, or to freshen existing work. A small fee may be added for this additional work.

Why Microblading over alternative procedures?
Microblading is semi-permanent and much less invasive than other forms of cosmetic tattooing. Because it only penetrates the first layer of skin, the strokes will naturally fade out, and disappear with time. As personal preferences chance, trends change. This allows clients to change and one is not stuck with the same look. It is more natural looking than the other forms of cosmetic tattooing. It is a safe procedure, and works really well on clients who have lost their hair due to illness or other reasons.
How long does the procedure take? How long do results last?
The initial appointment takes about 2 hours from start to finish. The touch ups are anywhere from 1.5 hours to 2 hours. Results, with proper care and healing, can last anywhere from 8-24 months. It is so important to follow the aftercare steps provided!
Does it hurt? How long does it take to heal?
There is a topical numbing agent that is applied to the area. The effectiveness of the agent is quite dependant on the client. In most cases, the numbing agent works really well and slight, if any level of uncomfortable is experienced.
Microblading takes 30 days to full heal. It is recommended to return for the Touch up appointment 4-6 weeks after the intial application. It will then be determined how your skin reacted, healed and if any adjustments need to be made.
