microblading
Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of eyebrows. This technique involves the use of a specialized handheld tool equipped with fine, sterile blades to deposit pigment into the upper layers of the skin, mimicking the natural look of eyebrow hairs. The process allows for precise, hair-like strokes that can be tailored to the individual's desired shape and color, resulting in fuller, more defined eyebrows.

This technique is designed to create a more defined lip contour, correct asymmetry, and impart a natural-looking tint to the lips, resulting in a fuller and more vibrant appearance.

What is Mircoblading? Microblading is a form of permanent makeup (PMU) where a small blade is used to create thin hair-like strokes throughout the eyebrow to give the illusion you grew hair overnight! These results can last anywhere from 1-3 years with annual color refreshers & touchups. Microblading is intended to be a natural enhancement but it will only blend seamlessly and heal naturally on clients who have full brow hair and are only looking to perfect their shape and add natural fullness. This is not a services for those with little to no natural hair or hair that is patchy. Microblading heals best on younge, normal/dry skin. Those with combination/oily or aging skin are not canidates for Microblading and are better suited for combination or ombre powder brows. Many clients think Microblading is the only way to achieve "natural" results however unless a client is an ideal canidate, Microblading can at times look more unnatural as time goes by. If you have oily skin, aging skin, or are in the sun frequently the hair strokes of Microblading will blur together looking blotchy over time.
what is the aftercare for micro blading? Following the aftercare given is crucial to obtain the best possible results! All clients are expected to follow the following instructions exactly to get the best healed resuts! All products needed for your aftercare will be provided to you at your initial session. Cleanse morning and night for 10 days with the provided cleanser Apply a thin (grain of rice size amount) of aftercare balmto the brows 2-3 times a day for 10 days Keep your new brows competely dry for the full 7-10 days. This includes showers, sweat, steam, and saunas No makeup can go on the brows for the full 14 days. You may wear makeup around the brows but lleave 1 inch around them at all times to avoid infections Avoid direct sun exposure for a full 2 weeks. Please plan all outting accordingly to avoid as much sun as possible Do NOT touch, pick, rub, scratch or pull the brows during the flaking process. As the flakes come off if you pick/pull them it will remove the pigment and cause scarring and patchiness No anti-aging products on the brows ever (anything with Retinol, Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, etc.) Contact your doctor immediately at the first sign of infection
I've had my eyebrows done before, will you cover/touch them up?" I will only go over another artists previous work if its at LEAST 80-95% faded (practically gone). All new clients to me are to be considered an initial session and will require the 8-10wk touchup. Some cover-ups require more than 2 sessions to fully see desired results. Cover-ups are taken on on a case-by-case basis so please fill out the form at the bottom of this page and attach photos of your brows so we can further assess if you're a candidate! If not, we do offer laser PMU removal at Seamless and you may text me for more information!
What can I expect immediately after my appointment? Immediately after getting your brows done you may experience minor redness or swelling around the treated area, which typically goes away within 24 hours. Over the next few hours, the pigment in the skin will oxidize, making the brows appear darker and warmer (red) opposed to the initial color. This is completely normal and expected. Pigment typically fades anywhere from 20-40% once fully healed. Around day 3-4 you may notice light flaking on the treated area. This is normal! Do NOT pick, scratch, pull or touch the areas during this time! Doing so will result in premature pigment loss in those areas as well as scarring and patchy healed results. Once the flaking is completely done (around day 10) the brows will appear much much lighter. This is our "ghosting phase" as the new epidermal layer of skin casts a milky-hue over the pigment we deposited behind the surface. The pigment will continue to darken over the next 4-8 weeks and the pigment will return to the skin in it's healed 15-20% lighter color. At 6-8 weeks, your brows will be fully healed. Any pigment that does not return will be addressed during your touchup appointment. This is completely normal for some areas to stick better than others! Once you're fully healed from your touchup session your brows are good to go for the next 18-36 months!
How should I prep for my appointment? Preparing for your appointment is just as important as aftercare when it comes to good healed results. Failure to follow pre-care may result in you being sent home the day of the appointment, so please read the following carefully! You coming prepared to your appointment mean sbetter healed results and a more comfortable experience! 2 Weeks Before: Botox: If you regularly get Botox or Dysport, it must be done at least 14 days prior to your appointment. It takes at least that long to settle into the skin. Waxing/Threading: I recommend coming to your appointment with your brows grown out. I will clean them up according to my mapping outline and the more hair to work with the better the final results! Retin-A: Please refrain from using any retin-a products in the brow area for 2 weeks leading up to your appointment 24 Hours Before: To minimize excessive bleeding during hte procedure, please avoid any alcohol consumption and excessive caffiene. Blood thinning medication such as Ibuprofen and Advil should also be avoided unless prescribed by a doctor. Map out directions to the studio! I have a very strict 10 minute late policy, so please plan accordingly! Also please plan ahead for traffic and parking if appropriate. Day of Appointment: Wash your hair!!! You won't be able to get your brows wet for the next 10-14 days to wash your hair beforehand to give yourself a few extra days before your next wash! NO Caffine - Including coffee, tea, sode, etc. Avoide exercise. Excersing increase blood flow and will cause excessive bleeding, leadidng to poor healed results. Makeup: You are welcome to come to your appointment with or without makeup on. We will be taking lots of photos, so come however you are most comfortable. If you regularly fill in your eyebrows you're more than able t ocome in with them filled in how you typicaly do to help me get a feel for your regular shape. RELAX! Feeling nervous is totally normal but I take everything step-by-step and we work together to create your dream brows!
How long does it last? Permanent Makeup is designed to fade naturally over time. Factors such as skin type, lifestyle, age, metabolism, medications, sun exposure, and igment color affect the longevity of the tattoo. Following the given aftercare instructions is crucial to getting your best healed results and routine touch-ups to your brows every 24-36 months (as needed). Touch-ups are normal and expected for PMU. *Please not that final results vary and CANNOT be guarenteed due to the nature of the skin as it heals. A follow up appointment is required 8-12 weeks after your initial session where we can assess your pigment retention and perfect your permanent makeup.*
