Semi-permanent makeup

Microblading

Microblading is a form of semi permanent makeup tattooing in which a small handheld tool made of several tiny needles is used to add semi-permanent pigment to the skin. Microblading differs from standard eyebrow tattooing, as each hairstroke is created by hand using a blade which creates a natural realistic finish to the brows. Suitable for non oily skin, and younger skin. This price includes your 4-8 week top up.

What's included in the service?

1) Step 1

Consultation: Begin with a client consultation to discuss eyebrow shape, colour preferences, and address any concerns.

2) Step 2

Numbing: To minimise discomfort during the procedure, a topical numbing cream or gel is applied to the eyebrow area. It needs some time to take effect, usually around 20-30 minutes.

3) Step 3

Design and Mapping: The artist uses a specialised tool to measure and mark the desired eyebrow shape, ensuring symmetry and proper alignment with the client's facial features. This step is crucial for achieving the desired look.

4) Step 4

Pigment Selection: The artist selects a pigment colour that matches the client's natural eyebrow colour or complements it. Pigment selection is an essential part of achieving a natural appearance.

5) Step 5

Microblading: Employing a microblading tool, the artist delicately etches hair-like strokes into the skin and deposits pigment, carefully crafting the desired eyebrow shape and fullness.

Pre-treatment advice
Do's
  • Consultation: Schedule a consultation with your microblading artist to discuss your expectations, desired eyebrow shape, and any questions or concerns you may have.
  • Research the Artist: Choose a qualified and experienced microblading artist with a good reputation. Look at their portfolio and read reviews from previous clients.
  • Communicate Your Preferences: Clearly communicate your desired eyebrow shape, color, and any specific concerns you have with your artist during the consultation.
  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Minimise sun exposure to the eyebrow area for at least two weeks before the treatment. Sunburned or tanned skin can affect the pigment absorption.
  • Stop Using Retinol and AHA: Discontinue the use of skincare products containing retinol and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) at least one week before your appointment. These ingredients can make the skin more sensitive and increase the risk of bleeding and uneven pigment absorption.
Don'ts
  • Don't Wax or Thread: Avoid waxing, threading, or plucking your eyebrows for at least two weeks before the procedure. Your artist needs to work with your natural hair for the best results.
  • Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications: If you're taking blood-thinning medications or supplements, consult your healthcare provider about temporarily discontinuing them before the treatment. This can help reduce the risk of bleeding during the procedure.
  • Don't Use Aspirin or NSAIDs: Avoid aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for at least 24-48 hours before your appointment, as they can increase the risk of bleeding.
  • No Exfoliation: Avoid using exfoliating skincare products on the eyebrow area for at least one week before the treatment.
  • Don't Rush the Decision: Take your time to make a well-informed decision about the shape and style you want for your eyebrows. Microblading is semi-permanent, so you want to be sure about your choices.
  • No Alcohol or Caffeine: Refrain from consuming alcohol and excessive caffeine the day before your appointment, as they can contribute to increased bleeding.
Post-treatment advice
Do's
  • Follow Aftercare Instructions: Pay close attention to the aftercare instructions provided by your microblading artist. These instructions are essential for proper healing and long-lasting results.
  • Keep the Area Clean: Gently clean the eyebrow area with a mild, non-alcoholic, and fragrance-free cleanser as recommended by your artist. Avoid using harsh or scented products.
  • Apply Healing Ointment: Apply the prescribed healing ointment or cream to the treated area as directed by your artist. This helps with moisturization and prevents infection.
  • Protect from Sun Exposure: Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds during the healing process, as UV rays can fade the pigment and cause irritation. Use a wide-brimmed hat or sunglasses if necessary.
  • Keep the Area Dry: Avoid excessive sweating, swimming, and submerging your face in water for at least a week after the procedure. Moisture can interfere with the healing process and pigment retention.

Don'ts

  • Don't Pick or Scratch: Resist the urge to pick, scratch, or rub the treated area, as this can remove pigment and potentially lead to infection.‍
  • Avoid Makeup: Steer clear of makeup, especially eyebrow makeup, for at least one week post-microblading. Makeup can introduce bacteria to the healing area.‍
  • Avoid Chemical Peels and Facials: Refrain from chemical peels, facials, and other skincare treatments that involve exfoliation on or near the treated area for a few weeks.‍
  • No Saunas or Steam Rooms: Avoid saunas, steam rooms, and excessive sweating from intense workouts, as heat and moisture can affect the healing process.‍
  • Don't Overexert: Minimise physical exertion that causes sweating during the initial healing phase. Sweat can affect the pigment's retention.
