MICROBLADING & MICROSHADING

Microblading and Microshading are two forms of eyebrow micropigmentation. Both treatments are ideal for people who have patchy, uneven, or nonexistent eyebrows due to over-plucking or medical conditions.

​

Microblading implants pigment into tiny etches in the skin to resemble hair strokes. On the appropriate skin type, this should blend seamlessly into existing eyebrow hair (if present), creating a soft and "wispy" look.

​

Microshading (aka Powder Brow) implants pigment strategically in a diffuse fashion, rather than mimicking hair strokes. The healed result is soft and powdery, and can range from being "barely-there" to bold and defined depending on the client's wishes.

​

Regardless of the technique used, our artists take a conservative approach to create a soft and understated look.

​

Two sessions are necessary to perfect the design, performed 6-12 weeks apart. If you have an existing brow tattoo, you are required to send clear, makeup-free photos for approval before setting an appointment.

 

A 20% booking fee is required to secure your appointment. The booking fee will be applied to the cost of your treatment and is non-refundable. In the event that you need to reschedule, please allow 48 hours advance notice so that your booking fee can be applied to the new appointment time.

​

Oily, thin, sun damaged, scarred, sensitive or mature skin will not retain tattooed hair strokes (Microblading) and may be better suited to a shaded powder technique (Microshading) at your artist's discretion.

Before your appointment:

​

  •  Please take a moment to read the Microblading/Microshading FAQ and Microblading/Microshading Aftercare Instructions. You can find these attached to your appointment confirmation email as well.

  • Discontinue use of blood thinners such as aspirin, ibuprofen, or fish oil supplements for 3 days prior to your treatment.

  • Keep alcohol consumption to a minimum 3 days prior to your treatment.

  • Do not wax or tweeze your brows for one week prior to your treatment.

  • You might want to wash your hair, as you will need to avoid getting your brows wet in the week following your procedure.

  • No chemical peels or use of retinol for two weeks prior to procedure.

  • Sign the digital consent form located in your confirmation email.

​

On the day of your appointment, it's a good idea to minimize caffeine intake. Please wear your makeup as you normally would (or no makeup, if that's your style) so that we can get a feel for your aesthetic and the way you like your eyebrows.
