Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
WHAT IS MICROBLADING?
Microblading is the manual skill of semi-permanent eyebrow drawing. The pigment is applied into the upper layers of the skin using a disposable microblade to create the desired fullness and shape of the eyebrows.
Strokes are then drawn in the direction of the natural hairs' growth to achieve a hyper-realistic look. The pigment is specifically chosen to match natural hair color of eyebrows which may become lighter after healing creating a very natural effect.

WHAT IS SHADING?
Eyebrow Shading is a semi-permanent makeup that gives a soft shaded brow pencil look. This technique creates a shadow or gradient appearance with teeny-tiny dots of pigment instead of fine hairs like microblading almost like using a brow powder.
During this procedure, pigment is applied into the upper layers of skin using disposable needles and machine. Depending on skin type, shading procedure needs to be repeated once or several times.

MICROBLADING AND SHADING (COMBINATION OF BOTH TECHNIQUES)?
It is a combination of both techniques. This style will create a makeup/powder look but with natural microbladed strokes. This combination might vary being shading on spine only which is a microbladed eyebrow and shading is placed on the spine of the brow, shading on the tail and lower line with strokes towards the middle of the brow giving a more intense look, and eyebrow shading + strokes in the front which is mostly shading and then microblading strokes are added only in the front.

DOES EYEBROWS TREATMENT HURT?
Most people explain that they feel only mild pressure or discomfort and less pain than a typical tattoo due to the use of an anesthetic cream. Of course, this will depend on your own personal tolerance for pain. Some level of pain or discomfort should be expected.
IMPORTANT: Treatment is avoided during the menstrual cycle because of increased sensitivity to pain and extreme bleeding that may occur during the work.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER EYEBROWS TREATMENT?
Slight swelling, thickness, and/or redness for one or two days following the procedure. It is normal to lose approximately 1/3 of the color during the healing process. After the initial procedure, the color may be a shade too dark; in six days it will appear to light after 10 days the color will show more. It will appear softer when completely healed because the color will come from dermal layer of the skin to the epidermal layer of the skin. Healing takes up to 45 days.
In the second session more hairs or shade can be added and make them perfect. Results may vary depending on the skin type, proper aftercare, sun exposure, taking medicine, etc. In case a severe infection occurs, client must contact his/her physician/doctor immediately.

WHAT IS THE BEST EYEBROW TREATMENT FOR ME?
If you have oily skin type with or without large pores around the eyebrows area, shading or the combination of both techniques can be performed. Only if you have dry or normal skin type, you are able to chose any treatment up to your preference.
HOW MANY SESSIONS DO I NEED FOR EYEBROWS TREATMENT?
Microblading, Shading and the Combination of both techniques are normally a two session treatment. People with oily skin type, people who are always exposed to the sun, and/or take medicines, etc., may need more than 2 sessions. Two sessions are included in the payment only.
HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT LAST?
This treatment is NOT a tattoo and will not last forever. Treatment will last from 12 to 18 months.
Oily skin type, sun exposure, taking medicine, etc, may cause the treatment to fade faster and you may probably need a touch-up a before the estimated time.
