Microblading Eyebrows

While it might sound intimidating, microblading is quite simple. Also known as eyebrow feathering, hair stroke eyebrow tattooing, or cosmetic eyebrow tattooing, it is a type of semi-permanent makeup that creates hair-like strokes on your skin. Brow artists can use this technique to fill out sparse brows, enhance or reshape eyebrow, and shade them to create an illusion of fullness.

The term microblading comes from the procedure itself. Your microblading eyebrow technician will use a maniple, a pen-like tool, to draw each hair stroke. It scratches the skin like a tiny blade, leaving space for the ink to set in.

Microblading eyebrow tattooing is easy to maintain: you won’t have to shape and fill your brows daily! Just choose an experienced stylist with a good reputation, and you won’t be disappointed with the results.

Microblading is the best way to get incredible-looking beauty perfect eyebrows effortlessly. The process allows brow artists to precisely replicate the direction and style of your natural eyebrow hairs with ink pigment.

At Face Figurati, we use our own microblade eyebrow maniple technique. This particular pen helps artists draw delicate strokes to mimic the growth of natural brow hairs. Depending on your preferences, we can make your brows look thick and full, light and expressive, or fill them out to make them look natural.

It’s important to remember that the results of microblading eyebrows would look different for everyone: the style or brow shape you see in a celebrity may not look good with your facial structure.

There are plenty of reasons why clients come to us for microblading. These include correcting blemishes in certain areas of the brow, cleaning up the shape of their brows, or wanting a complete and radical brow transformation. Remember that you can customise your eyebrows exactly the way you want them:

• Save time. Forget doing your makeup every morning because they already look amazing!
• Save money on regular makeup and cosmetics
• Improve the expressiveness and brightness of your eyes
• Make your eyebrow look symmetrical
• Correct the colour and shape of your brow
• Make your brow look fuller or thinner – it’s up to you!
• An excellent alternative for people who are allergic to makeup products
• Get perfect, beautiful brows in a single one-and-a-half-hour session
• Effortlessly look incredible every day of the week

It can be painful when not performed by an expert. Even though the blade will only cut the skin’s surface, the skin area affected is quite large. Therefore, your specialist should only perform microblading after applying the suitable numbing cream. This anesthetic gel will reduce pain and discomfort to almost zero.

We do not recommend eyebrow microblading procedures to pregnant and lactating women.

Microblade eyebrow tattooing costs depend on the brow artist’s skill, the studio’s location, and the microblading technique used. A guaranteed good microblading treatment at Face Figurati costs around $550.

Other eyebrow treatments like powder eyebrows, microshading, hybrid brows tattooing, ombre brow, combo brows or require different techniques and pricing.

On average, microblading lasts anywhere between 8 months and 2 years. Over this time, the colour will not change, but the pigment will gradually fade. Your brows may appear thinner, eventually returning to how they initially looked.

When this happens, you need to have your microblading redone. However, getting a touchup before the color pigment disappears is faster (and cheaper!!) as your brow artist would be able to trace their original work.

The results of brow microblading might stay on the skin longer or shorter than expected.
If you’re wondering how long does microblading last on you, you need to consider these four factors.

Skin Type

Having oily or overly sensitive skin can shorten the life of tattooing. Thick skin can absorb more implants pigment than thin skin, and oily skin types releases pigments faster than normal skin.

Age

As a rule: the younger you are, the faster the microshading eyebrow tattoo pigment dissolve. This is because skin cells renew faster in younger people.

Skincare

You should be extra careful in the first three weeks after your first treatment. Keep the brow area clean and moisturised so the pigment stays in place! Don’t forget to use sunscreen outdoors because direct sunlight can also cause fading.

Touch Up

We recommend getting touch-ups occasionally so that the results last as long as possible. Once a year is ideal, but your eyebrow specialist will give you more information on your consultation.

As long as you follow the recommendations of our brow artists, your tattooing will last for a considerable time.

Here are our top tips:

1. Remember to take proper aftercare of your eyebrow during the healing period. Gently remove all of your makeup before cleansing, avoid scrubbing your microblade eyebrows, and do not use strong cleansers to wash your face.
2. Do not go to saunas and baths the first week after the tattooing because hot, humid air can cause dyes to loosen quickly. It would be best to allow the pigments to take hold of the skin.
3. Don’t go overboard with sunbathing or tanning beds when you have your tattooing.
4. Do not get cosmetic surgery like lifts or fillers on the microblading eyebrow area.

As with every treatment, there is always a risk that you might not get the look you are trying to achieve. However, if you choose a professional and highly-rated artist, you basically can’t go wrong. Never Play with your luck. Always look first at the cosmetic tattoo reviews and  before after tattoo portfolio!

At Face Figurati, we use only high-quality products from leading brands, including Permablend, Lik Super Nude, Lik Colorful Eyebrow, and IColor.

All dyes we use are hypoallergenic, meaning there’s a low risk of an allergic reaction. We also review our supplies to ensure they are certified in Australia.

We get this question a lot from those considering microblading. The requirement to keep your brows dry is one of the biggest challenges our clients face during recovery and healing.

When you get your brow tattooed, a crust forms on the skin. This crust keeps the pigment in the skin, helping it sink in and stay. Of course, you can damage this crust by rubbing it or putting on clothes, but the main danger is moisture. Washing your brow zone will also remove the pigment, which will not make the procedure effective.

Usually, the microblading healing process will takes 1 to 2 weeks. During this time, you mustn’t get your eyebrows wet! Make sure to keep an eye on the area throughout the healed time.After the redness from the initial feathering session has gone down, the crust will begin to form. This generally happens after a few days; they will start peeling off after 7-10 days. Don’t panic! Peeling is normal, and it just means your body is healing. Once this is over, the process is complete, and you’ll be free to take showers, hit the beach, jump in the pool, or do whatever you feel like!

If you find you don’t like your microblading brow, the good news is it is reversible. The bad news is that it can take some time.You will get your original brow back naturally when the pigment from the tattooing session completely fades. Again, the duration depends on different factors but expect to wait at least eight months.If you’re not a fan of waiting that long, many studios offer tattoo removal services. One method for removing the tattooing is using an “acid” remover. It is the cheapest way to accelerate the fading process. However, it also has its drawbacks.

The healing process will take up to 6 weeks, and the removal process is unsuitable for everyone, especially those with sensitive, dry skin.Another option is to overlap the old brow tattooing with a new one. This is the method we recommend for most of our clients who come in looking to remove lousy microblading from other salons.Because fixing is more complex than applying tattoos, it can get pretty expensive. However, we can usually fix it and make things look good again.Other options are also available, and we can talk about them thoroughly when you book an appointment with us.
