My eyebrow method is a tattoo done by hand and not machine which is called microblading. Microblading is also known as eyebrow embroidery, feathering or 3-D eyebrows.
This method is the finest form of eyebrow tattooing, using a pen-like device with a disposable micro blade attached to scratch and etch very thin lines into the skin mimicking eyebrow hairs.
When using the hand held microblade, the colour is deposited closer to the surface than when a machine is used, leaving very fine and crisp hair strokes with no spilling under the skin so these lines heal thinner and sharper and there is less blurring over time.
With this method I can create almost any look, from a very natural light finish or a beautifully bold brow. Each set of brows I design is bespoke to you and your measurements and the colour we choose should compliment you without any makeup.
When you’ve tried every pencil, powder, pigment, gel, and stencil at the makeup counter and your brows are still sparse, that’s when microblading comes into place! It’s a more permanent fix for thin brows that promises to change your brow life
Microblading is great not just for anyone looking to improve or enhance the appearance of their brows, but also for those with fine and gappy brows, and even those suffering from alopecia, as sparse or missing brows can be completely restored. The strokes are more visible when there is high contrast between skin and ink color, and they can last up to a year depending on the skin type and colour chosen.
Microblading has grown steadily in popularity over the past couple of years and now everyone’s mother knows about the once under-the-radar service. And with good reason: Nothing out there is as long-lasting nor natural-looking.
There are some things you need to avoid before getting microbladed, namely, anything that will thin out your blood. If you drink a lot, take aspirin, or use retinol, stop one week before your treatment. Retinol makes your skin thin and then you will bleed a little more. Profuse bleeding pushes out pigment so that it doesn’t stick as well. Avoid blood thinners, aspirin, anything caffeinated, and alcohol during the healing process.
Pain is relative. Some feel more than others. Overall it feels like little scratches. You feel it, but it’s not unbearable. I will numb the brows with topical numbing cream. There are three phases, each phase I will add more numbing cream to help you have very little to no pain at all.
Aftercare means protecting freshly bladed brows from all moisture–no sweaty workouts, swimming, or washing your face with water for a whole week. “If you get them wet, the scab comes off too early and you just lose the pigment.
Some patients experience itching and redness during the first week, which Vaseline can alleviate. Brows will look slightly darker at first, but the color will fade 30 to 40 percent. Aftercare ointments are provided during your first appointment. Overall they look great right away and you don’t have to hide. Slight redness and mild swelling is normal.
You will also have to avoid using any makeup and other products on the brows while they heal. Treat it like an open wound.
Depending on the skin and lifestyle, clients come back for touch-ups once every six months. The brows’ pigment will change over time. While they will be long-lasting, clients should have realistic expectations and understand the brows will naturally fade. Your body might metabolize pigment faster, or if your skin is oilier, the pigment breaks down faster. Strokes soften and blur a bit. If you think it’ll stay looking exactly like hairs forever and stay sharp, that’s not going to happen. I find I don’t need to do ‘shading’ technique because the body does it on its own.
