What is microblading?Microblading is a cosmetic tattoo that creates thin hair-like strokes on the brow line. This technique creates the look of thicker and fuller brows and lasts about 2-3 years at most without getting annual touch ups. The special tool used consists of anywhere between 12 to 18 tiny needles which are used to lightly deposit ink into the bottom layer of the epidermis on the brow line.

What is the difference between Microblading and shading?
Microblading is the uses small needles to create thin, hair like strokes. Unlike Microblading, Microshading does not create the illusion of individual hairs, but fills in sparse areas using a fine tipped needle. Instead of a more natural hair stroke, microshading creates a look that looks as if they were airbrushed or powdered. These techniques can be combined to create a unique, full and natural look. There are many different shading techniques we offer, such as Microblading, Ombre Powder Brows, or Combo-Brows. We also offer touch ups and color boosts which are recommended annually to prevent fading.

The Artist will start with the Brow Mapping Process. It is a process that makes your brows proportionate to your face size and shape. This process can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour depending on if there are any corrections that need to be made. After that, the therapist will apply a numbing cream to leave on for about 20-30 minutes. After the numbing cream has taken effect, the artist will then begin microblading. The actual microblading can take an 1.5-2 hours or more depending on the amount of work that needs to be done on the client, and if the client would like to add on the Combo-Brows upgrade. Typically, the total amount of time spent on a client is no more than 3.5 hours.

Microblading and Shading can last anywhere from 6 months for oily skin types, to 3 years for dryer skin types. The Shading is a better option for oily skin types because it tends to last a lot longer.
