What is Microblading?
A micro blade tool is used to manually create individual hair strokes in the upper layer of the dermis. Artists use your bone structure combined with your unique features to shape a natural looking, enhanced brow that immediately polishes your look. The final result is seen 6 weeks after your initial touch up. It is normal for Microblading clients to require regular touch ups to maintain freshness, sharpness and boldness of colour. Retainment of pigment depends on several factors including skin type, aftercare, age, skincare routine or treatment, personal healthcare (smoking, supplements), quality of pigment and technique of artist, and other environmental factors such as sun exposure.
What are "hybrid" brows?
Hybrid brows are a combination of manual microblading and manual or machine shading. The blended result of these two techniques creates a deeper 3D appearance. The front of the brows is where we focus on creating natural looking hair strokes with microblading, while perfectly transitioning into a bolder tail with the use of a manual shading blade, or the PMU machine.
What are Infinity brows?
Infinity brows are also referred to as powder brows. Infinity brow is the technique used and taught to me by Canadian PMU artist Shay Danielle. Shay has built an empire in the PMU industry based on her artistic talent, precise attention to detail, extensive knowledge and ability to teach. The infinity brow is a bolder technique that resembles a makeup filled brow when healed, hence the term "powder" brow. Powder brows can be done manually using special blades, or with the PMU machine and special cartridges. Pigment is deposited into the skin creating a pixelated appearance that heals beautifully. This technique is less traumatic to the skin and typically lasts longer - up to five years. It is the optimal choice for anyone with oily skin.
How long is each appointment?
Every appointment is made for 3 hours. This promises that each client receives a thorough consultation and adequate time to be meticulous.
Every appointment begins by going over the pre-procedure information you were emailed when you booked your appointment. We will also discuss your client consent agreement and aftercare. It is imperative you follow the aftercare instructions closely, as it plays a huge role in the longevity of your brows.
I will show you the tools used throughout the procedure and explain to you what you may experience.
We will discuss your desired shape, style and thickness before I begin the process of mapping out the placement of the head, arch, and tail.
We also choose a pigment together using the Fitzpatrick scale, your hair colour as well as considering your personal preference. It is required that you confirm, with signature, the pre-draw and coluor choice before begin any microblading.
How long will microblading last?
The procedure is categorized under permanent make up, but it is less invasive and considered semi permanent, because we are only working in the upper layer of the dermis. Microblading typically lasts 8 months to 3 years depending on several factors such as skin type, age, skincare routine and hygiene, sun exposure, diet & nutrition etc. It is normal for microblading clients to require an occasional touch up, or "perfecting" appointment. The regularity of these appointments is left for personal preference to each client.
The Healing Process
Day 1-3 - Dark & thick. The microbladed hair strokes will feel embossed along the top of the skin. Do not pick at the pigment. Use aftercare.
Day 3-5 - Scabbing, flaking and itching is to be expected. The skin will be exfoliating, DO NOT pick at the scabs or you may pull pigment out or induce scarring. You want these flakes to fall off naturally.
Day 5-9- Pigment appears to fade as the skin around the brows is healing, causing it to become less transparent.
Day 9-14 - Around this time, the pigment will start to “come back.” You will notice that the pigment has faded to about 30-50% lighter than day 1. They may also appear patchy - you will start to realize why the touch up appointment is required to perfect the final appearance.
Aftercare
No water, creams, cleansers or make up for 10 days. If they happen to get wet, carefully pat them dry and avoid rubbing. Aftercare gel is included in your appointment cost, and it is recommended you apply with clean fingers, three times a day. You will want to avoid tanning and direct sun exposure for 14 days. It is recommended that you avoid any activities that will cause excessive sweating such as working out, having hot baths, using saunas, hot yoga etc. Avoid facials, Botox, chemical or laser peels, and microdermabrasion for 4 weeks.
Long Term Care
Use sunscreen on your brows.
If you are getting a chemical or laser peel/ procedure or an MRI, let the technician know.
