Microblading

Semi Permanent Brows - Digital brows vs Microblading?

Both are a form of semi permanent Makeup but different methods to implant pigment into the skin. 

Digital Machine, using an electronically powered machine and a needle to implant the pigment. This method lasts approximately 3-4 years until completely faded. A wider range of effects can be created with this method such as shading, ombre and super natural hair strokes. 

Microblading will last 1-2 years, pigment is implemented with a hand tool creating a slightly finer hair strokes. This method is not recommended extremely pale skin which have a very rosy/ red tones, rosacea sufferers, mature or very delicate skin, large pores and extremely oily skin.

Both are amazing methods of naturally enhancing your eyebrows. 

Can I have the treatment?

- I have botox and filler?
Yes you can, but you can not have them near the area to be tattooed two weeks either side of the beginning of the treatment and two weeks after your top up appointment. 

- I am pregnant?
No, I am afraid you will have to wait until after your baby has arrived and if you decide to breastfeed once you have stopped breastfeeding.

- I am going on holiday/ use sunbeds?
You will need 2-3 weeks after your brow appointment before you can go in the sun, on sunbeds, sun holiday or get them wet.

- I'm nervous so would like a drink?
Please don't consumer alcohol 24 hours prior to your appointment as this can cause excessive bleeding and will impact your results.

How much is the treatment?

£300 which includes your initial treatment and your top up appointment 4 - 12 weeks later. Split payment across the two appointments is also an option.

What can I expect at my appointment?

Please allow 3 hours for your appointment. We will discuss your consultation form, choosing a colour to suit your skin tone and mapping your brows out; Once the brow shape has been mapped out, stray hairs will be removed. This initial stage will take approximately half of the appointment.

The procedure is not completely painless as the face is more sensitive than the body in terms of tattooing, however  semi permanent makeup goes into the epidermis whereas a normal tattoo goes deeper. Most clients find the plucking more uncomfortable it just feels a bit tender towards the end of the session.

What is the aftercare and what can I expect after the appointment?

Please keep your eyebrows dry for two weeks, this is how long it takes them to heal. I will give you some cream to put over your eyebrows every evening. You can expect the pigment to flake in the first two weeks and in some cases even scabbing, it is very important that you do not pick at your eyebrows. You can wear makeup but no makeup over your eyebrows in these two weeks. No sauna, steam rooms, hot baths or showers.
