FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT IS MICROBLADING?

 Microblading is a form of semi-permanent tattooing. We use a hand-held microblade to create the finest "hair-like" strokes to achieve the most natural looking results.  This less invasive form of tattooing allows the lines to heal thinner and more sharply, with less blurring over time. 

Each set of brows is designed specifically for the client, together we will decide on the best size, shape, and colour to compliment your features, making any adjustments necessary in your follow-up appointment.  

Because Microblading is a two-part process, we always aim to book you in for your follow-up appointment 6-8 weeks after your initial appointment. 

AM I A SUITABLE CANDIDATE FOR MICROBLADING?

Microblading is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their brows.  If you have sparse brows, no brows at all, or just want to amp up their shape, microblading is an amazing alternative to temporary makeup.

 It is important to note every person and skin type is different, so healed results can vary.   

*PLEASE NOTE: If you have had your eyebrows previously tattooed, you MUST disclose this information to the artist prior to booking and provide a clear photo via email for assessment. We do not guarantee results for cover-up work and additional appointments may be needed to achieve the best results (which will be charged accordingly). 

WHO IS NOT  A  SUITABLE CANDIDATE FOR THIS PROCEDURE ?

Anyone who is -

· Pregnant / Breastfeeding

· Have a history of Keloid or Hypertrophic scarring

· Diabetic (may require doctor’s clearance)

· Chemotherapy (please consult your doctor)

· Viral infections and/or diseases

· Epilepsy

· Pacemaker or major heart problems

· Organ transplant

· Skin irritations or Psoriasis near the treated area (rashes, sunburn, acne, etc.)

· Sick (cold, flu, etc.)

· Accutane within the past 12 months

· Heart conditions, Uncontrolled High Blood Pressure, Poor general health

· Any treatment, medication, or illness that compromises the immune system.

WHAT IS THE BROW HEALING PROCESS?

Immediately after the procedure is how you can anticipate the healed result to look.  In the hours following the appointment, your brows will darken noticeably and the hair strokes will appear much thicker than initially due to swelling.  This will cause the brows to look incredibly dark, much larger, and misshapen 1-2 weeks after the procedure.  The appearance of much darker brows is due to the pigment oxidizing as each hair stoke is essentially an open wound.  They will lighten by atleast 50% and the strokes will appear thinner 1-2 weeks after, and they will continue to lighten through the 4 weeks following the appointment.  Please consider the timing of your appointment in relation to any upcoming events.  You are likely going to have more intense looking brows for the first two weeks of healing. 

WHEN DO I BOOK IN FOR MY TOUCH UP?

Touch up’s should be booked 6-8 weeks post the initial treatment. This allows time for eyebrows to completely heal before perfecting them second time round. 

*PLEASE NOTE: Our our 6-8 week touch-up Price is only valid up to 8 weeks from initial procedure date. It is very important that clients prioritise their touch up just as much as their initial treatment as this can affect obtaining the best results possible.

HOW LONG WILL MY NEW BROWS LAST?

You can expect results to last up to 12-18 months dependant on how well you maintain your brows post treatment. The results may be effected by your skin type.

We recommend a 6 or 12 months Colour Boost to upkeep the appearance of fresher fuller brows
