What is Microblading?
Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that creates natural-looking, fuller eyebrows. Using a handheld tool with ultra-fine needles, a trained technician deposits pigment into the upper layers of skin to create hair-like strokes that mimic natural brow hairs.
Unlike traditional eyebrow tattoos, microblading creates a more natural, realistic appearance and fades over time rather than changing color. It's ideal for those with sparse, thin, or over-plucked eyebrows who want to wake up with perfect brows every day.
How It Works
The technician uses a manual handheld tool with a blade made of tiny needles to create small incisions in the skin, depositing pigment with each stroke. The strokes are designed to follow your natural brow hair pattern and direction. The pigment sits in the upper dermis, making it semi-permanent and allowing it to fade naturally over 1-3 years.
Ideal Candidates
Ideal candidates have naturally thin or sparse eyebrows, have lost brow hair due to over-plucking or medical conditions, or simply want to enhance their brow shape and fullness. You should not be pregnant, nursing, or have certain skin conditions. Those with very oily skin may not retain pigment as well.

Frequently Asked Questions
Microblading typically lasts 1-3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Oily skin types may find it fades faster. Most people get annual touch-ups to maintain the color and shape.
Most clients describe the sensation as minor discomfort, like small scratches. A topical numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure to minimize pain. Most people find it very tolerable.
Traditional eyebrow tattoos use a machine and deposit ink deeper into the skin, often resulting in a solid, blocky look that can turn blue or green over time. Microblading uses a manual tool to create fine, hair-like strokes with pigment that fades naturally without color change.
A touch-up 6-8 weeks after the initial session is essential because everyone's skin heals differently and retains pigment differently. The touch-up allows the technician to fill in any areas that faded and perfect the shape and color.
Absolutely! Your technician will work with you to design the perfect shape for your face using brow mapping techniques. Color is custom-mixed to match your natural hair color and skin tone.
Microblading is not recommended for those who are pregnant or nursing, have diabetes or bleeding disorders, are on blood thinners or Accutane, have active skin conditions in the brow area, or have had recent Botox in the forehead.
