Microblading

A permanent cosmetic procedure ideal for many people 18 years of age or older wanting to enhance the look of their eyebrows, especially for those with little to no hair. Unlike traditional machine applied permanent makeup, microblading is applied manually by using a tool to tattoo fine eyebrow like hairs into your own eyebrows, creating the appearance of the full, perfectly shaped eyebrows you’ve always wanted! When performed correctly by a qualified microblading artist, it is difficult to tell the difference between your real hairs and the microbladed strokes.

What is the difference between microblading and powder/ombre brows?

Microblading

Created using a hand held manual tool that inserts high quality pigment into the upper dermal layer of the skin via shallow slits created to closely resemble individual hairs. The artificial hairs follow the hair pattern of the natural brow if there is hair or an artists realism design if there is no hair

*Both microblading and powder/ombre brows are considered different forms of tattoos.

Powder/ombre brows

Created using a manual or electric hand held tool to insert high quality pigment into the upper dermal layer of the skin via an up and down needle motion. This creates mass amounts of pigmented dots into the upper dermal layer of the skin to create a soft shaded effect. The more dots in one area the darker the area. (Much like pointillism art) The front body of the brow (bulb) is lightest and the arch
and tail is the darkest in an ombre effect.

*Both microblading and powder/ombre brows are considered different forms of tattoos.

Health Risks of microblading

When pre and post care instructions are followed, the risk of complications are rare. However, should you suspect an infection, it is necessary for you to contact your health care provider immediately to avoid any complications. This is at the cost of the customer. I am not qualified to diagnose or treat any medical issues that should arise.

If you have sensitive skin or allergies to topical makeup products, gold, silver, nickel, or hair dyes you should contact me to set up a patch test a week or two in advance of your procedure. Should you chose to skip this step, I can not be held liable for any reactions you may experience.

Microblading Procedure

Pre Procedure Instructions

It is not necessary or ideal to tweeze or wax your brows in advance of your service.

Bleeding can result in poor pigment retention. 24 hours pre procedure, please avoid blood thing agents such as ibuprofen, aspirin, niacin, vitamin E and alcohol. Tylenol can be a good alternative. (always consult your doctor)

Please do not bring a guest to your appointment. I take this service very seriously and feel it is necessary to have zero distractions for both parties involved.

Avoid caffeine the day of the procedure for best results.

Come with a clean face free of lotions, creams and foundations in forehead, lids and brow area.

Ware comfortable clothing.

You may bring your own blanket should you tend to get chilly. I can not provide one to you for sanitation purposes.

Please bring a hair tie and/or headband. Hair needs to be completely off the forehead.

The Procedure

After signing the consent forms and addressing all questions, I clean your entire brow area and take a few photos for reference. I then discuses the desired outcome you may have in mind and/or gives suggestions based on your facial morphology and natural thickness and general shape of you existing brows. (should you have any) Using special tools I then draw the design and verify the symmetry for the best possible outcome. After we both agree to the design, I then go over the color options that would best suit your skin tone and natural brow hair color. I make several passes using a sterile single use microblading tool to go over each brow making sure the pigment is implanted into the correct depth of skin. After the brows are completed I show you the end result and explains in detail how to care for your healing brows.

Post Procedure Instructions

More detailed after care instructions and supplies will be provided and discussed at length at the close of service. Although there are artists that recommend different ways to care for your healing brows, it is imperative that you follow my directions for the best result possible.

F.A.Q.

Am I A Canidate For The Microblading Service?

Personal preference determines whether someone should get powder/ombre brows or microblading however, this service is not ideal for oily, large pore, and mature skinned people as they have a higher chance of an undesirable outcome. You must prefer a realistic hair stroke look over the makeup filled look of a powder/ombre brow.

Microblading either needs to be delayed, does not offer the best outcomes, or is not available to individuals:

with rosacea, eczema or psoriasis in the brow area
on chemotherapy drugs
pregnant or nursing
diagnosed with serious medical conditions (must consult a doctor for approval)
using Accutane (must discontinue use for at least 1 year)
using Retin-A or Retinol (must discontinue use for at least 1 week in advance)
who had Botox within a minimum of two weeks of service
who have had a chemical peel within a minimum of one month of service
who requires anesthetic and is allergic to lidocaine, tetracaine, or epinephrine
on blood thinning medications. (may affect the results)
under the age of 18 (Wisconsin law)
with extremely sensitive or thin skin
with oily skin
with large pores in brow and forehead area
with deep wrinkles, scars or large moles in brow area (may be possible to go around but will certainly have voids in the pigment)
with skin that keloids (some added risk)
with sunburned or deeply sun tanned skin
with any active acne in the brow area
with any open wounds in the brow area
who have waxed or colored their brows in the past 3 days
who have received microdermabrasion or dermaplaning within at least 2 weeks of service
who will be menstruating closely around the time of service (may hurt more is all)
who have old saturated pigment in the brow area already (in person consult is required)
who are ill or on any antibiotics at the time of the procedure

**Powder/ombre brows may be an alternative to microblading in most cases.

Booking Fee

A non refundable booking fee is collected to protect my time. A mandatory 72 hour notice may allow for me to fill your spot on the schedule should you need to reschedule or cancel. If you do not allow for a 72 hour notice, it is
within my right to retain the booking fee. If you allow for the 72 hour notice or keep your scheduled appointment I will discount the fee from the full price of the service; the balance of which is due at the close of the first session. (Nothing at the perfecting session) If you do not allow for the 72 hour notice and would like to book for the future, another non refundable fee is assessed. Same goes for the perfecting session only you will have to pay an additional fee.

Is the perfecting session for microblading service necessary?

Can the perfecting session be preformed sooner than 4-6 weeks?

How long does microblading last?

It is impossible to say for certain how long your microblading will last. Multiple factors such as age, skin type and lifestyle determine the longevity. As a general rule you should return for a refresher at around the year mark. (some longer, some sooner) I will discuss tips to get the most longevity. Use of Retin-A, Retinols and acidic products after the procedure before 30 day mark may cause premature fading. Even after fully healed, continued use of these products in general can decrease longevity.

What if I do not like my microblading service?

The healing process can be difficult for people to adjust to. “Brow shock” is a very real thing. If you find you are regretting your decision in the first 24 hours based on the current look of your brows, it is very important to remember it takes a FULL MONTH at least to see the true outcome of the first session. The brows WILL be darker and slightly larger in the first week or so. Slight asymmetry is not uncommon. Depending on the pigment used you may see more warmth for a short time. To avoid unwanted results, you must fully understand what you are getting yourself into and choose a practitioner you feel 100% comfortable with. Review images of their healed work. Discuss your expectations and desired outcome with your artist, including the shape, style, and color you wish to have. Realize that faces are never perfectly symmetrical and your artist is not a copy machine. Brows are sisters not twins.
Adjustments may be made during the perfecting session. Remember that microbladed brows will fade and touch ups are necessary. If worse comes to worse, and you just can’t wait to remove them, emergency removal can be done but only within 48 hours of the initial service and should be avoided if at all possible. This is done at the customers expense.

Is microblading really permanent?

When referring to any form of make up like enhancing tattoos, it is important to understand that the term “semi-permanent” and “permanent” are commonly misconstrued. The term “semi permanent” only refers to the fact that the pigment does not wash off daily. The color must be refreshed in a time frame based on a case to case basis to look its best. There will always be some trace of pigment molecules in the skin, therefore it is in fact a “permanent” procedure. Not only does the pigment used for permanent cosmetics consist of slightly different sized molecules, the skin on our face metabolizes the pigment faster than other areas of the body.

What if I have old permanent make up brows from another artist?

An in person consultation is mandatory if you have received any form of tattoo eyebrow enhancements form another artist. I have the right to refuse service to anyone should I not feel you are a good candidate for my services. If
I feel I am able to go forward with booking your services, you will be considered a new client and must complete both the first procedure and return for the perfecting session for best results.

Is Microblading considered a tattoo?

Does Microblading hurt?

It is impossible to say for certain how painful the service is, as everyone has a different level of tolerance. Most people liken the feeling to multiple brow hairs being tweezed at once during the first pass across each brow. To help ease discomfort, I do use a topical anesthetic containing lidocaine, epinephrine and tetracaine.
It is worth noting that, to my surprise, I have had several people fall asleep while getting the service.

*It is not uncommon to be more sensitive to pain around menstruation
