What is microblading?

Microblading is a specialized cosmetic treatment, which consists of depoziting pigment under the surface of the skin to achieve a semi-permanent effect of defined arches. Depending on the chosen method, microblading is performed using tiny fine-point needles or various types of small blades. Microblading is aimed at: correcting the shape of the eyebrows, thickening the arches, emphasizing the color and filling in any sparse areas with realistic-looking hair-like strokes.

How eyebrow microblading works

Does microblading hurt?

It is considered painless. It's because brows aren't considered as a particularly senstitive area and the entire procedure doesn't cause intense pain. Howerer, prior to the treatment, the brow expert covers the skin with lidocaine, which numbs the skin topically and prevents discomfort during the procedure. Additionally, at the client's request, the eyebrows can be further anesthetized, just before the treatment.

Is it necessary to shave the brows prior to microblading?

In order to look natural, there's no need to shave the entire eyebrows. However, your brow expert will certainly remove any unnecessary hairs from the arches. This ensures a nice and natural shape, matching the client's face shape. We recomend leaving eyebrow mapping to the professionals but if you prefer, you can remove the unwanted hairs yourself. All you need is a good pair of precise tweezers, which painlessly grab every hair, even the shortest ones.
