Frequently Asked Questions
Microblading is a semi-permanent make-up technique which uses a manual pen that inserts pigment into the upper layers of the skin. This technique creates realistic hair-like strokes that can fill, restore, and shape your ideal brow.

How Long Does The Service Take?
The service will typically be completed within 2 to 2.5 hours.
Why Do I Need a Touch-Up Session?
Semi-permanent make-up is a two step process. You can expect up to 70% color loss within the first 4-6 weeks. The touch-up session is essential for this reason, and also to perfect your ideal brows. The touch-up session typically lasts 1.5 hours and will be with your original technician.
What If I Wait To Do My Touch-Up Session Past 4-5 Weeks?
Semi-permanent Touch-Ups included in the standard pricing must be done within the 4-5 week time period to ensure proper maintenance. Delays at 7-10 weeks start at $200, and past 10 weeks is subject to full price. The deposit of $150 is required on delayed touch-up appointments.
We start the procedure by applying a topical numbing cream that minimizes discomfort, and use a numbing agent throughout the service. Some clients may experience slight discomfort, but the overall procedure is relatively painless.
How Long Will My Results Last?
Clients usually retain pigment 12-18 months after the first touch up. Clients with oily skin may experience faster fading (6-9 months) than those with normal or dry skin.
