What types of brow treatments do you offer?

Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo that creates hair-like strokes with the use of a manual pen containing very small needles. These needles implant pigment into the basal layer (bottom layer) of the epidermis.

Microblading is perfect for someone who:

- has thin or patchy brows

- wants a subtle shape enhancement

- doesn’t regularly fill in their brows

Ombre brows Ombré shading is a semi-permanent eyebrow styling technique that uses a small machine to place extremely thin dots of pigment into the skin, creating a soft-shaded brow pencil look. ... Ombré shading graces you with one to three years of low maintenance for your brows.

Who is it best for: If you are someone with oily or combination skin, or who fills in your brows regularly with pencil or shadow, then this is the method for you! It mimics the look of filled in brows, without all the effort each morning.

Combo brows is a combination of two forms of semi-permanent techniques: microblading and powder brows (shading). Microblading hair-strokes are placed with a manual tool around the border of the brow to give the brow a natural look.

I really love this technique for everyone to be honest. All brows are customized specifically for each individual client based on your desired look, skin type, colouring, bone structure etc. There are no two clients with the same brow design.

What happens after the microblading treatment?

It is normal for your new brows to go through several phases. Immediately following the procedure, they may seem dark and the strokes will appear very crisp. Throughout the weeks, the pigment will soften gradually as it settles into the skin. Once the skin starts to heal, it may appear dry and flake a bit. It will look like the pigment has disappeared and come back again in a few days. This is a normal healing process. Once your results are healed completely, the use of SPF is strongly recommended in order to prevent premature fading.



How long does microblading last?

The results of microblading vary by client and can last up to 2 years. Various factors can determine how well the pigment will retain – such as amount of pigment implanted, the client’s skin-type, immediate aftercare, the client’s skin care regimen and medical history.

Who is a candidate for microblading?

One common misconception about microblading is that it is only for individuals that have severe hair loss. Although these clients can benefit from the service immensely, anyone looking to add depth and color will find great value in microblading. It’s also a great choice for those wanting to correct their brow shape after years of follicle damage from various epilation methods.


Does microblading hurt?

Procedure is relatively pain free for the Ombre powder brows but can go up to moderate for Microblading. Some, feel a little bit of discomfort and some have gone through the process without the numbing cream with ease. If you prefer not to take a chance, we offer numbing cream to ALL CLIENTS!

What do I need to do before the microblading treatment?  

Do not drink alcohol or take ibuprofen in the previous 24 h 



Why is microblading only semi-permanent?

Traditional methods of permanent makeup consists of implanting pigment to the dermis. The dermis is live skin made up of blood vessels, sebaceous glands, sweat glands and nerves. Since this layer of skin is alive, it usually retains pigments permanently. In microblading, pigment is deposited right above the dermis into the basal layer of the epidermis. Because the cells of the basal layer continuously divide, the pigment is then broken down and eventually migrates to the surface causing the pigment to fade away.

What is the maintenance for microblading?

A mandatory 4-6 week touch up is required to ensure the skin has retained the pigment and/or to insert additional strokes for a fuller look. We recommend that clients schedule a touch-up visit once a year to maintain the shape and ensure pigment retention.

Clients who are NOT eligible:

  • Women who are breastfeeding.

  • Clients who are keloid prone.

  • Clients who are currently using Accutane.

  • Clients who are currently receiving chemotherapy.

Skin treatments that include the exfoliation of the brow area (such as microdermabrasion), certain chemical, fruit peeling or laser treatments may affect the result of microblading. Clients must abstain from retinols for 30 days after the treatment. Sunlight – both natural and artificial – can also affect the results.
