Microblading
HOW IT'S DONE
​
Microblading is done manually with a small blade made up of tiny needles that are used to insert pigment into the upper layers of the skin. Microblading has more of a natural look once healed. Numbing cream is used and reapplied if needed to make the process painless!
What to expect at your
microblading appointment
​
When you arrive for your microblading appointment, you will first fill out a consent form. We then apply numb cream that sits for 10 minutes while we discuss the process, any questions you might have and what you would like them to look like.
We will wipe off the numb cream, then map and shape out the brows. This is called the predraw and is done with a brow pencil.
This way you get to approve the size and shape before we begin!
Any adjustments you would like are done at this point, the predraw is perfected and then we are ready to begin!
We will have you lay down for the procedure (cozy blanket optional!)
With microblading, we use a microblade that looks similar to a pen/pencil. We will start on the inner brow and work our way to the outer brow, inserting hairlike strokes into the upper layer of the skin.
Every so often we switch to the other brow, we always numb the opposite brow while working, this way you’re thoroughly numbed the entire time.
After the first pass, we will sit you up to take a look, we can still make adjustments before the next pass.
With your approval, we will finish the brows, wipe them clean and you’re ready to sit up and admire your new look!
We discuss aftercare instructions and provide you with an aftercare balm to use while healing. We also send you a link to the instructions so that you can review it again later.
