What is Microblading?

Microblading method is a tattoo done by hand and not machine which. Microblading, also known as eyebrow embroidery, originated in Far East Asia and is taken from the bamboo tattoo method which is known as one of the oldest technique of implanting pigment into the skin.

 

This method is the finest form of eyebrow tattooing, using disposable  pen-like device to microblade  very thin lines into the skin. These thin lines flow in the same direction as your own hairs, and create the most natural results.

 

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 but can easily be amped up for an evening out with a little added brow makeup.

 

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 colour, and they can last 1-3 years depending on the skin type and colour chosen.Yearly color boost is recomended.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will you draw the shape first?

Yes, the design will be discussed with you and drawn based on the classic measurements of golden ratio for eyebrows. I won't start microblading  until you are completely happy with the colour selected and shape.

How long does it take to heal? 

 Initial healing period is 9-14 days with special attention needed for the treated area, however overall healing can take up to 28 days.

Can I get them wet or work out?

 No, not for at least a minimum of  9-14 days to keep the treated area dry and reduce the risk of complications or infection and to retain the maximum amount of pigment implanted. Should the brows still have scabs, it would need to be kept dry until all the scabs have fallen off naturally. It is generally advised to avoid hot Baths for a couple of weeks .

 When can I go out in the sun after the treatment?

The sun will be the main factor that accelerates the fading of the tattoo, it is essential that you avoid direct sunlight on the treated area for the longer life span altogether, not just during healing period. Wearing a hat, sunglasses and sun cream(after healing) will be of highly advice.
