What is Microblading?

Microblading is similar to permanent makeup but is performed with a manual hand piece and performed not as deep into the skin as a traditional tattoo. Because the pigment is not implanted as deep, microblading fades sooner than typical permanent makeup. Most people need a touch up 1 to 3 years. Usually people with oily skin, will not produce as crisp strokes and will fade faster than someone that has dry or normal skin. There is three different techniques that I perform with microblading. The first one is the hair stroke method. This is what most people think of when they think microblading. The technician takes a blade that has multiple needles that are in a line and implant hairlike strokes into the skin. This method gives a more natural and hairlike appearance. The second technique is called a powder brow or shading method. This is performed if the client likes a more solid or ombre effect on their brows. Someone that likes to fill in their brows heavily with makeup would most likely prefer this method. The third method is a combination of the two mentioned above. The combo of hair strokes and shading gives a more dimensional look.
Hope this helps to understand what exactly microblading and check out my service page to check out pricing.
