Does it hurt?
I use a combination of surgical-strength anesthetics so most people feel little-to-no discomfort. It is a tattoo so it is possible that there will be slight discomfort at times, but anesthetic is reapplied throughout the procedure to keep you as comfortable as possible.
Can I go to work right after the procedure?
There is no down time! Most people typically experience very little swelling or redness so if you are comfortable you can continue on with your regular activities. Just remember to keep the area clean and practice great aftercare by avoiding sweating, swimming, or contact with dirt, dust, or other airborne debris.
Does it look natural?
Microblading or the manual hairstroke technique is the most subtle form of brow enhancement. It is meant to look as natural as possible.
Ombre shading can also look very natural, especially when combined with microbladed strokes and/or the client's natural hairs. It adds "fluff" and density to really up your brow game!
How is the pigment implanted in the skin?
Ombre/powder shading is implanted using a motorized tattoo machine equipped with different needle configurations to create a soft, shaded effect using a technique that is very similar to a typical body art tattoo.
Will I need to come back for a touch-up?
The initial procedure is a 2-step process. After the first appointment you will come back for the "perfecting" appointment no sooner than 6-8 weeks following.
It is strongly suggested that you come in for a color boost appointment every 1-2 years to keep your brows looking fresh. These additional appointments will be charged depending on how much work is required.
PLEASE REMEMBER
Healed results will differ greatly from client to client. There is NO guarantee. Additional sessions may be needed or desired to achieve the best results -- additional charges will apply. There are many factors that may cause a less than desired outcome -- each client heals differently. While I always give my best efforts to provide the best service that I can, it is important to understand that results differ from client to client and NO guarantee can be made. It is your responsibility to make sure the Pre-Care and Aftercare fit your lifestyle.
