everything you need to know about microblading.

---

Microblading is an advanced brow technique that uses a superfine row of needles to deposit pigments into the skin, to create thin, hair-like strokes. Rather than giving you a block of colour like traditional tattooing, fine strokes are done by hand to create the illusion of real hairs. 

Microblading is not implemented as deeply as machine brows (ombre/powder brow)

Microblading heals best on normal to dry skin types.

You cannot have microblading if:

You are prone to keloids, have super thin skin, Rosacea or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

You have a transmittable blood disease such as HIV or Hepatitis. It is best to not work with these conditions for the safety of our clients as these conditions greatly impact the immune system and healing process of individuals.

You have an auto-immune disease.

If you’ve had Botox in the brow area. We ask that clients wait 4 weeks after botox before getting Microblading done. Alternatively, you can do the Microblading treatment first and then wait 4 weeks to do your botox.
