I'm I a good candidate for permanent makeup?
-
Is it painful?As we all know, pain is subjective and everyone has different tolerances. Prior to the start of any procedure we ensure that we apply topical anesthetic to the procedure site. I always tell my clients that the first pass is always the hardest, as the initial pass is to "open" the skin. After the first pass, a secondary anesthetic is used to help restrict the nerves thus minimizing the pain considerably. Additional anesthetic is applied throughout the procedure as needed for comfort. We do all that we can to make sure you are comfortable during the procedure even more so, we've had clients who has fallen asleep during their sessions.
-
Is microblading the right service for me?Microblading is more suitable for individuals who has dry skin and is not recommended to people who has oily skin. Excessive secretion of our skin's natural oils, with time, will push the pigment out of the skin thus will have a greater chance of premature pigment loss. Clients who have opted to move forward with microblading despite having oily skin has had a shorter service life expectancy. Results typically last up to 1.5 years on oily skin. For lasting results, we highly recommend our ombre brow, combination brow and nano brow services as they are favorable for ANY skin type. Permanent makeup is a lifestyle choice. We always tell our clients to think about their life style before selecting their service. With that said, microblading appears very natural and in most cases non-delectable to strangers ( only you and close family and friends will be able to tell the difference). If you're the wake up and go type that wears little to no makeup, then this service is for you!
-
Do I have a say on what my artist design for me?Absolutely! Our clients are our partners when it comes to selecting the proper color and shape. The first part of the session is dedicated to mapping and measuring the design based on your facial structure. Before proceeding with the service we show and discuss our ideas and vision and allow you the opportunity as the client to approve or reject the design before moving forward. Adjustments would then be made if needed!
-
How long does it last?Depending on skin type, generally, results last up to 2.5 years.
-
Is there any downtime that I need to consider?Yes! For microblading, ombre and combo brows we ask that the first seven days to keep your brows dry as possible. Please stay away from activities that may cause excessive sweating or exposure to water. No intensive workouts and or swimming!
-
I think I may need a session before my 1 Year TouchupThis is popular question and many people my need a color boost in between thier touchups. Color Boost sessions can be scheduled as early as 6 month after
-
When should I schedule my touchup?Brows: Touchup should be scheduled between 6-8 weeks after your initial session. Lips: Touchups should be scheduled between 6-8 weeks after your initial session. * We encourage our clients schedule their touchup sessions the day of their initial session to ensure appointment availability and so that it isn't forgotten.
