What Is Microblading?
Microblading is an art and science of beauty. With precision and creativity, your artist will craft a customized eyebrow “tattoo” that lasts from 18-30 months. In other words, say goodbye to the 20 minutes in your mirror trying to even out your eyebrows!
Wakeup with brows, swim with brows, feel beautiful and put together 24/7 with brows!
Is Microblading Right For Me?
Contrary to what you may think, microblading is not for everyone and actually there are very few perfect candidates for microblading. An artist who tells you otherwise is probably more concerned about making money, than about creating long lasting and beautiful results.
I will connect with you before your appointment for a brief consultation if needed to decide which is the best option for you. I want to make sure that microblading is going to work well with your skin type, cosmetic history, and ideal brow shape. This is your investment, as your artist I’m here to make sure that you invest wisely.
What Brow Service IS Right For Me?
Depending on what style you like best, it’s now time to decide what service is correct for you.
Microblading Only: A semi-permanent manual tattoo technique that mimics the look of fuller yet natural-looking brows with realistic hair-like strokes - done using a sterile manual blade depositing pigment into the broken skin. This is typically best for clients with sparse brows who want fullness. This is best for clients with normal to dry skin, as oily skin with large pores can heal with thick, blurry, faded, and/or blended-together strokes
Fusion/Hybrid Brows: Works on all skin types, existing full brows, or sparse brows, can fix asymmetrical brows or missing gaps of hair. Can be as natural or as soft as client desires
Powder/Ombre: Best for those with combo/oily skin but works on every skin type. Great for clients who want a precise dramatic brow, but also can be designed for clients with a natural look in mind.
Nano: For those who wishes to achieve the microbladed strokes but were not candidates; nano strokes are created with machine by an extra fine needle to create the finest realistic hair strokes. Less invasive and traumatic to the skin compared to microblading.
What Is 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. Microblading is ideal for creating a very full and realistic looking brow, it is becoming an increasingly popular method in permanent makeup. Microblading is best suited for those with dry to normal skin, naturally fuller eyebrows, and those who still want to apply makeup to their brows as microblading heals very natural.
Nano brows are done with a machine – some artists call this treatment digital hair stroke brows. The machine features an extremely fine needle, which vibrates and pierces the skin, depositing pigments in tiny dots that add up to strokes. The needle is flexible and thin, so it causes very little trauma to the skin.
I Have Combination / Oily Skin, Can I Still Get Microblading?
Yes! Oilier skin is usually a concern when you have larger pores or textured skin on the brow and forehead area. If this is the case, then it is definitely recommended to start off with an ombré style brow, or at least a combination brow, as the microblading alone is likely to fade away on this skin type.
If your skin can get oily in the T-zone, but does not have large pores or is not textured, then microblading is just fine! You also always have the option of adding shading (whether to do a combo brow or an ombre brow) when you come back in for your touch up! You're also not tied to whatever service you chose at the time of booking, we'll do a full consult and decide together what's best for you!

Do Any Of The Brow Procedures Hurt?
I use two types of topical antiseptic numbing creams prior to and during your procedure to ensure that the experience is as comfortable and painless as possible. Of course pain tolerances vary person to person and with that in mind, I will take the absolute most care to assess your numbness and comfort level throughout the session.
How Long Will The Microblading Procedure Last?
While the inks I use are semi-permanent, you can expect the ink to fade gradually. Once the pigment has faded about 50% (usually around 1-1 & 1/2 years) it is recommended to come in for a touch up.
How Many Brow Procedure Sessions Are Needed?
For optimal results, two sessions are needed with a 6-10 week window between the two appointments. At the touch up appointment we will assess the color retention, shape and make adjustments as necessary.
Do I Need To Know Anything Before I Book?

Can I Book It If I Have Old Eyebrows From Another Artist?
I don’t take many clients from other artists for Microblading, most have to be covered up by doing a fusion/hybrid brow or powder brow, and results are never promised due to the factor of scar tissue. To find out what you are a candidate for, text our business line three photos of your current brows with no makeup in them. These photos need to be taken in natural light using your front camera (not selfies camera) taken by someone else is preferred. Side profile of brow, right profile of brow, front profile for symmetry close enough to the brows but not too close we can’t see the shape.
Do The Treatments Cause Scarring?
It can if done multiple times over the same area without ample time in between sessions. This is why I only allows for 2 sessions of microblading in one year. The inital and second session together will not cause scarring. If done every 6 months, your brows may scar. It is up to the client to decide if they would take the risk to continue microblading. After the two sessions of microblading, you must wait until the pigment fades 90% before coming in again or powder may be done. The brow artist will give the best recommendation to the client.
How Often Do I Come Back?
I recommend for a client to come back at least after 1 year and before 4 years from the initial touch up. Refreshes can be done every year, every two years, or every 3 years. After 4 years or if the brow is completely faded, client is subject to first session pricing. Refresh prices remain steady regardless of when the client comes back and how much pigment is on the brow. Please DM for refresh pricing as it differs for clients based on the time of their first appointment.

I only accept cash.
Please zelle or venmo the deposit and it will be deducted from the final price at your appointment.
