How is microblading done?

Microblading is a manual technique, during which hair strokes-like incisions are made, to resemble natural brows hairs. If done well, by experienced microblading artists, it looks perfectly natural. The treatment itself is 1 to 2 hours long and the procedure is not painful just a little bit uncomfortable.

Before the procedure, you will have consultations with your artist, who needs to decide whether you are a suitable candidate for microblading. You need to inform your artist about any illness or skin conditions you have as well as the medications that you use.

How do I maintain my microblading?
