FAQs- Permanent Eyebrows
WHAT IS MICROBLADING
Microblading is a semi-permanent eyebrow procedure that uses a fine blade to place semi-permanent pigment into the surface of the skin. The effect very closely mimics the look and detail of actual brow hairs, creating a bolder, natural-looking brow.Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.
WHAT ARE COMBINATION BROWS?
This is the best of both worlds – combining microblading and ombré shading together. Usually microblading is completed at the fronts of the brows to keep it looking more hair-like and fluffy and ombré shading is completed in the middle of the brows to the tails to keep the shape looking defined and more filled-in. Usually if your skin-type is more oily, this method is great for retention longevity.
DOES THE PROCESS HURT?
We will numb your area before we begin. Every person numbs differently. You may experience slight discomfort during the treatment, but most compare the sensation to plucking their eyebrows. We keep you as comfortable as possible.
WHAT ARE CONTRAINDICATIONS OF RECEIVING PERMANENT MAKEUP?
Being pregnant or having major medical conditions may restrict you from having permanent cosmetics done. Text or call if you have any questions.
WHY DID MY COLOR DISAPPEAR AFTER MY INITIAL APPOINTMENT?
During the initial healing process, your skin will begin to flake. Once the flakes have fallen off, a shiny layer of healing skin will completely cover the treated area. It may appear as though the tattooed area has completely disappeared. Within 1-2 weeks, the color will slowly reappear at a lighter shade as your skin regenerates.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR MY BROWS TO HEAL?
The initial healing period is 7-10 days. The complete healing process takes between 6-8 weeks.
WILL MY SKIN BE RED OR SWOLLEN?
Swelling and redness is minimal with most clients and will dissipate within 24-48 hours. In rare cases, bruising may occur.
WHAT DO THEY LOOK LIKE AFTER THE PROCEDURE?
Immediately following your procedure, the tattooed area will appear to be darker and bolder in color and more sharply defined. This may last until they are fully healed. Have faith in the process and know they will soften in appearance.
WHY DO I NEED A FOLLOW UP APPOINTMENT?
The complete healing process takes 4-8 weeks, at which time the true color of the tattoo is evident. During this process, your tattoo will soften and lighten and may heal uneven in color. Be patient, even if you think too much color has been lost, we can make all needed adjustments during the second session.
