Microblading: Get Perfect Eyebrows without Being a Makeup Artist

You’re done with having to pencil your brows every morning. You want a natural-looking brow that appears as though it was naturally yours.

Imagine waking up and not having to worry about drawing in your eyebrows anymore! With microblading, you can wake up with the most beautiful natural-looking brows that will last for years. It’s an affordable procedure that lasts longer than traditional tattooing techniques, so you’ll never have to worry about filling them in again!

Microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure used by many women who are unsatisfied with their eyebrow shape or color. The results look completely natural and last 24 months!

What is microblading and how does it work?

Microblading is a form of cosmetic tattooing with the intention to mimic makeup. It’s a semi-permanent procedure that involves using a fine blade to deposit pigment into the skin. The results are natural-looking, hair-like strokes that can fill in sparse brows or reshape them completely!

The microblading procedure is quick and relatively painless. Numbing cream is applied to the brow area before the brow specialist begins. The numbing cream helps to minimize any discomfort you may feel during the procedure.

After numbing cream is applied, the brow specialist will use a fine blade to create hair-like strokes in your brow area. The blades are so fine that they create a natural-looking effect. Pigment is then deposited into the skin using the blade. The technician will match the pigment to your natural hair colour so that it looks completely natural.

How Does the Microblading Procedure Work at Blink Beauty Salon?

Before Treatment

A thorough consultation starts our appointment to understand your unique requirements, style, colour and lifestyle factors.  This helps determine our custom made design for each client.

We proceed to map and design brows to compliment your beautiful facial features, show you the design to approve.  This step includes asking you to make different facial expressions, such as smiling or laughing.

Our goal is to create beautiful brows that compliments your facial features; finding the perfect colour and shape for just your face is what we do best as experts in the field.

A strong anaesthetic is applied on the area to numb the skin and ensure that the procedure is comfortable.

During Treatment

After the numbing is complete, the microblading will begin. The brow specialist will use a handheld tool to make fine, hair-like strokes in the brow area. The blades are so fine that they create a natural-looking effect. Finally, the pigment is deposited into the skin using the blade. The brow expert will match the pigment to your natural hair colour.

Most clients describe the procedure as a vibration/brow massage, and actually fall asleep.

Frequently asked question about microblading

Microblading is a form of cosmetic tattoo with the aim to mimic hair strokes. It's a semi-permanent procedure that involves using a fine blade to deposit pigment into the skin. The results are natural-looking, hair-like strokes that can fill in sparse brows or reshape them completely!

Microblading is a type of tattooing that uses a needle to deposit pigment beneath your skin to produce well-defined, natural-looking brows. Depending on your skin type, activity level, and how frequently you require touch-ups, the outcomes can last from 12 to 18 months.

Microblading is not suitable for all skin types. Mostly not for oily or mature skin, or those who have large pores.

In some cases, microblading might cause scar tissue.

We recommend Powder Brows to clients as it is safe for all skin types including oily skin, mature skin and large pores.

We use very strong anaesthetics to ensure the ultimate comfort of clients.  Most clients describe the procedure as a tickling or scratching sensation without any pain. 

Microblading & Powder Brows are the two most used techniques to create beautiful brows.

Microblading uses a manual tool and Powder Brows an electronic tool.

Microblading looks like fine hair strokes and Powder Brows look like soft powder on the brows.

Microblading lasts 12 to 18 months whereafter Powder Brows last 3 to 5 years.

Microblading is not safe for all skin types, Powder Brows are safe for all skin types.

Book your brow appointment with Blink, and we will provide you with an expert opinion on what will best match your unique style.

No, when done correctly, microblading provides a very natural look. The goal is to create the illusion of fuller brows, not to produce a "fake" look.

How do you shower after microblading? Do not put any water, lotion, soap, or makeup on your brow area during the first seven days after the procedure. Please carefully wash around the brow without getting water on the treated area while showering. Keep your face away from the shower head when taking a bath or using a shower.

Although less common, some people opt to get microblading removed with saline-removal or laser-removal.   Saline-removal process opens the skin and allows a concentrated salt solution to enter the top layer of skin, which then draws out the pigment. Laser-removal is the process to blast the pigment and remove for the brow region. Both removal methods should only be done by highly qualified experts

In some cases you may have some extra hair outside of the brow design.  We recommend to wax, tweeze or thread the excess hair outside of the brow design to fully benefit from your beautiful designer eyebrows.

You should expect some fading in one year, but your microblading will not be completely gone. Your microblading will be nearly unnoticeable after three years. However, regular touch-ups every 12 to 18 months can keep your microbladed brows looking natural for years.

Our brow experts do a custom design for each client to enhance their natural facial features.  Blink Beauty Salon Brow designs include professional mapping, consideration of personality, personal preference, age, skin type, lifestyle factors and type of look.

Rest assured, you will have a perfect looking brow design to enhance your natural features.

Leave it to us as the experts at Blink Beauty Salon.

You can do microblading from age 18.  We have done microblading on clients over 70 as well. 

There is no age limit as long as you are in good health and your health practitioner did not advise against any cosmetic procedures.
