WHAT IS MICROBLADING?
FAQ
DOES IT HURT?
WHO IS MICROBLADING FOR?
MICROBLADING IS THE ART OF TATTOOING CRISP, HAIR-LIKE STROKES TO ADD FULLNESS AND DEFINITION TO YOUR BROWS. THE GOAL IS TO CREATE HYPER-REALISTIC, NATURAL RESULTS THAT COMPLEMENT YOUR FEATURES.
THE BLADING TECHNIQUE IS DELICATE AND METICULOUS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE SKIN. THE SHAPE IS DETERMINED BASED ON YOUR BONE STRUCTURE. THE FINAL RESULT IS SEMI-PERMANENT.
NOT AT ALL! THERE CAN BE SOME DISCOMFORT THAT RESEMBLES BROW THREADING OR LIGHT SCRATCHES. THE FIRST PASS IS PERFORMED WITH A DELICATE HAND, THEN NUMBING CREAM IS APPLIED TO MINIMIZE DISCOMFORT.
CLIENTS WHO WOULD LIKE TO RE-DEFINE THER BROW SHAPE, IMPROVE SYMMETRY, ADD FULLNESS, OR ALL OF THE ABOVE!
MOST PEOPLE'S BROWS ARE ASYMMETRICAL AND LACK FULLNESS IN SOME PARTS. WITH MICROBLADING, THEY BECOME MORE EVEN AND OFTENTIMES BETTER THAN REAL BROWS.
HOW LONG DOES MIROBLADING LAST?
1-3 YEARS, DEPENDING ON YOUR SKIN TYPE AND ACTIVITY. OILY SKIN FADES FASTER AND MAY REQUIRE MORE FREQUENT COLOUR BOOSTS TO MAINTAIN THE SHAPE.
CAN MICROBLADING COVER A SCAR?
ABSOLUTELY! OLD SCARS CAN BE COVERED UP WITH HAND DRAWN, INDIVIDUAL HAIR STROKES THAT BLEND SEAMLESSLY WITHIN THE REST OF THE BROW.
HOW IS THE COLOUR CHOSEN?
A SELECTION OF DIFFERENT SHADES ARE MIXED ON THE SPOT TO PERFECTLY MATCH YOUR BROW HAIR COLOUR AND SKIN TONE.
HOW LONG IS THE APPOINTMENT?
BETWEEN 1.5 TO 2 HOURS INCLUDING A THOROUGH CONSULTATION, MAPPING OUT THE OUTLINE OF YOUR NEW SHAPE WITH A PENCIL, AND MICROBLADING THE SROKES.
HOW WILL IT LOOK THE FIRST 24 HOURS?
CRISP, FRESH AND NATURAL, YOU'LL WANT TO HEAD BACK TO WORK TO SHOW THEM OFF. MOST OUR PHOTOS ARE TAKEN IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE TREATMENT. SLIGHT REDNESS MAY APPEAR AROUND THE TREATED AREA FOR SENSITIVE SKIN, WHICH GOES DOWN WITHIN 24 HOURS.
HOW DO I TAKE CARE OF MY MICROBLADING?
THE STROKES ARE BASICALLY OPEN WOUNDS AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH. DURING THE FIRST 14 DAYS, YOU MUST AVOID WATER ON YOUR BROWS, SWEATING, SUN-TANNING, MAKEUP, CREAMS, SAUNA, STEAM ROOMS, SWIMMING AND CONTACT WITH FINGERS OR OBJECTS TO AVOID INFECTION AND ACHIEVE OPTIMAL HEALED RESULTS.
WILL IT CHANGE COLOUR AFTER TIME?
NEVER! ONLY THE HIGHEST QUALITY PIGMENTS ARE USED AT ALL TIMES. NO MATTER YOUR SKIN TYPE AND COMPLEXION, THE PIGMENT WILL FADE AWAY OVER THE YEARS LEAVING NO TRACES OF RED, ORANGE, OR BLUE BEHIND. IF YOU DECIDE TO NO LONGER RECEIVE COLOUR BOOSTS, THE PIGMENT WILL SIMPLY CONTINUE TO FADE UNTIL IT DISAPPEARS.
WHEN DO I NEED A TOUCH UP?
A TOUCH UP IS REQUIRED AFTER 4-6 WEEKS TO REINFORCE ANY FADED STROKES IF NEEDED. THIS IS INCLUDED IN YOUR INTIAL PRICE. COLOUR BOOSTS CAN THEN BE DONE 1-3 YEARS LATER TO MAINTAIN THE COLOUR AND SHAPE.
WHY DO WE USE ONLY PHIBROWS PRODUCTS?
PHIBROWS PIGMENT FORMULA IS EXTREMELY PURE AND STABLE, MEANING IT DOES NOT MIGRATE UNDER THE SKIN (OR SPREAD). THEY CONTAIN 0% HEAVY METALS OR IRON OXIDE, HENCE NO DISCOLOURATION WILL OCCUR AS IT FADES OVER TIME. THEY ARE HYPOALLERGENIC, VEGAN, AND NOT TESTED ON ANIMALS.
