The Appointment
Introduction
Introduction! Grab a seat, make yourself comfortable and we will go over the microblading or shading procedure as well as answer any questions. Don't forget to bring a valid form of ID. Clients must be 18+.
Outline
Using a software system, pencil and charcoal-infused string, we create a non-permanent outline using your facial structures and natural eyebrow hair to create the best symmetrical eyebrow shape for you. This custom process takes 60-90min. The outline is dark and intense, but don't let it overwhelm you!
Numbing application
Prior to the procedure, we apply a numbing cream for approx 10 min. Now is a great time to go to the bathroom, grab some water and stretch your legs.
The Procedure
We use a manual tool for microblading each hair stroke, or a machine for powder/ombre brows. Each microblading tool/tattoo needle is single patient use,
Ink Mask
For microblading, after each hair stroke is created, an ink mask is placed to ensure proper pigment implantation. The process is repeated one more time on each eyebrow, with an additional numbing cream application in between to ensure comfort. Shading may be performed after if needed. For powder/ombre/bold brows, no ink mask is needed as ink is deposited evenly during the tattooing.
The Reveal
Voila! Brows are complete.
Healed Results (varies upon individual)

Microblading is often crisp and dark at first, but softens as it heals. If a client has skin that is compatible with microblading, then they will see results similar to this client where is is soft but the form is still there. The touchup will make the shape and strokes more precise.

The brows are fresh and crisp after first appointment, but soften as they heal. Microbladed hairstrokes soften in the front, and the powder brow lightens in color. Scabbing varies between clients.
