What is Microblading
Microblading is a permanent makeup process of the implantation of pigment into the second layer of the skin, creating little hair strokes into the eyebrow. Microblading was founded in Asia for cancer patients who had gone through chemotherapy and lost a significant amount of eyebrow hair. These days microblading eyebrows and microblading hairlines are done to enhance beauty and practicality.
Benefits of permanent makeup and microblading:
- It saves you time to get ready in the morning.
- Gives those with skin diseases like alopecia or hair loss secondary to chemo a natural-looking brow and hairline.
- It won't smudge or smear off, even with exercise, especially for those with an active lifestyle.
- No upkeep.
- It lasts up to 2 years; you may need to return for a color refresh.
- The pigment does not change color; it only loses saturation.
- You'll have a blueprint for your eyebrows.
- Saves you money in the long term.
Microblading is very safe in the hands of a professional/certified microblading practitioner. It is minimally invasive and has minimal downtime!

POST-PROCEDURE CARE
All permanent cosmetic procedures are multi-session processes. You must return for at least one perfecting visit before determining that your best microblading work is complete. Perfecting and touch-up visits are scheduled from six to eight-week intervals.
Be prepared for the color intensity of your procedure to be significantly larger, sharper, brighter, or darker than expected for the outcome. It will take time for this transition based on how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates.
While these injected tones may initially simulate the desired color and tone, they will not always remain a perfect match. Injected tones are constant, while your skin tones will vary depending on exposure to cold, heat, sun, and circulatory changes. For example, if you tanned your skin and had a scar camouflaged, your surrounding skin will be darker in appearance than the treated area.
Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or redden, some clients feel it best not to make any social plans for a day or two following any procedure. Wear your everyday makeup and bring your lip or brow pencils to the office on the day of the procedure.
Permanent makeup is not recommended for clients who have the following:
- Diabetes
- Viral Infections or disease
- Epilepsy
- Pacemaker
- Organ Transplant
- Skin conditions (sunburns, rashes, acne, etc.)
- Sick
- Botox in the past two weeks
Proper skin preparation for a microblading or tattooing procedure is a critical factor in color retention. Results may vary according to skin type, lifestyle, and other external factors. Carefully follow each step below for the best results:
-14 Days-
Discontinue Retin-A and Glycolic Acids.
Avoid injectables like Botox and Dysport, even with fillers, like Juvederm and Restylane.

POST-PROCEDURE CARE
Permanent Makeup (PMU) or cosmetic tattoo and microblading creates a wound to the skin, so you need to treat it like a wound, keep it clean, and prevent excessive stress on the healing area. Proper care after a microblading or tattooing procedure is a critical factor in color retention. Follow each step below carefully to ensure the best results.
What to Expect After Procedure
- Slight swelling
- Thickness and/or redness for 2-3 days
- Scabbing for 7-10 days
- Color darkening (due to scabbing) for 1-2 weeks
- Slight itchiness for sensitive skin
- Discoloration or light spots. These will be addressed in the touch-up.
- Scabs will fall off naturally like dandruff. DO NOT PICK AT SCABS.
- An annual color boost is recommended to keep the shape and color fresh.
- If the skin breaks into a rash, this is a reaction to the numbing solution and will resolve itself within two weeks.
Immediately the Following Procedure
I love a good acronym, so here's one to help you; just think of A - W - M, which stands for Absorb, Wash, and Moisturize!
In the first 48 HOURS after the procedure, scabs will naturally form on the brows or hairlines to protect the skin during this time.
Absorb (Day of)
- After the procedure, gently blot the area with clean tissue to absorb excess lymph fluid.
- Do this every 5 minutes until the oozing has stopped.
- Removing this fluid prevents the hardening of the lymphatic fluids.
- On your way home, gently blot the area with gauze & distilled water (provide). If you are sent home with pigment on your brows/hairlines, gently wipe the pigment off with clean, wet gauze after one hour. Proceed with the remaining healing instructions.
Wash (Days 1-7)
- Wash daily to remove bacteria, build-up of product and oils, and dead skin. (Don't worry, THIS DOES NOT REMOVE THE PIGMENT!)
- Gently wash the area each morning and night with water, gentle soap, or an unscented cleanser like Dial Soap, Cetaphil, or baby shampoo. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to cleanse the area gently.
- Rub the area in a smooth motion for 10 seconds and rinse with water ensuring that all soap is rinsed away.
- To dry, gently pat with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA) or exfoliants.
Moisturize and hydrate (Days 1-7)
- Apply a tiny rice grain amount of Aquaphor/healing ointment (provided) 3 times a day with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area.
- Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The product should be barely noticeable on the skin.
- NEVER put the product on a wet/damp tattoo.
Important Reminder
- Use a fresh pillowcase while you sleep.
- Let any scabbing or dry skin naturally exfoliate away. Picking can cause scarring or loss of color.
- No facials, botox, chemical treatments, or microdermabrasion for four weeks.
- Avoid hot, sweaty exercise for one week.
- Avoid direct sun exposure or tanning for four weeks after the procedure. Wear a hat when outdoors.
- Avoid long, hot showers for the first ten days.
- Avoid sleeping on your face for the first ten days.
- Avoid face-down swimming, lakes, and hot tubs for the first ten days,
- Avoid topical makeup and sunscreen on the area.
- DO NOT rub, pick, or scratch the treated area.
Important Instructions for Showering
- Limit your showers to 5 minutes, so you do not create too much steam. Keep your face/procedure area out of the water while you wash your body; then, at the end of your shower, wash your hair.
- Your face should only get wet at the end of the shower.
- Avoid excessive rinsing and hot water on the treated area.
Sterilization & Sanitation
We take health seriously. We uphold the highest safety standards and raise the bar on education and safety to benefit our clients, artists/technicians, and anyone who walks through our doors.
We believe that being a microblading/permanent makeup artist is a profession of care, and exceptional safety standards are required to perform our services. With that in mind, we warrant that our studio is blood-borne pathogens certified according to state regulations. We go above and beyond to ensure our studio is the safest and can be noticed as soon as you walk through our doors.
Tools and Supplies
We use 100% disposable tools, never to be reused on another client.
Hand Washing
We must wash hands for at least 20 seconds before/after procedures.
Cleansers and Disinfectants
We use medical-grade cleansers, barrier film, and an autoclave that keeps all bloodborne pathogens at bay to ensure the safety of our staff and clients. Our needles are properly disposed of in an FDA-approved sharps container, never to be reused. After each procedure, we are required to properly dispose of all tools and wipe down our station with medical-grade cleansers. Anything we might have touched throughout the procedure must be wiped down with this medical-grade cleanser. The new barrier film is replaced on any plastic tool to ensure no contamination occurs. Anything made from metal (such as tweezers, scissors, etc...…) is placed in barbicide and put into the autoclave to be sterilized.
Needles
We use only the best tools for our clients. The Harmony microblade by Tina Davies is our most trusted microblade on the market. All Harmony microblades are 100% disposable and have been pre-sterilized using EO Gas. Each needle is individually packaged and has a unique lot number and sterilization date. You can even download the sterilization certification using the needle’s lot number to ensure your needles are sterile.
Plastic
Plastic can not be sanitized; therefore, anything that is plastic used during our procedures is disposed of or wrapped in barrier film that is replaced after each procedure. We cover our chairs and trays in plastic and replace them after each procedure.
Gloves
We are required to wear gloves throughout the entire procedure. Any time an artist removes her gloves, she is to wash her hands and put on a fresh pair of gloves; never use the same pair twice. No artist is allowed to leave the procedure room with gloves on, even if they are clean. No gloves mean hands are clean, making it safe to walk around our studio.
Drawing Tools
We use a black China marker to outline the brow design. The pencil is pre-sterilized before touching a client’s face and is wrapped in barrier film. After each procedure, artists must sharpen the pencil by shaving off any part that touched a client’s skin. This prevents any cross-contamination.
Double Dipping
NEVER! No one is allowed to ever double dip. Artists must use a new disposable tool if they need more products.
We will never risk your and our health, meaning we are a little extra when it comes to sanitation and sterilization.
