Question 1

What is microblading?

Accepted Answer

Microblading is an artistic technique of tattooing individual 3-dimensional hair strokes with a hand held tool called a microblade - made of up tiny micro needles. Unlike traditional tattooing, miroblading artists (aka Rita & Jordan) hand draw each hair to match the color, coarseness, and natural hair growth pattern of your eyebrows.  It's very important to only let certified and licensed artists do this process as it has to be done with precision and accuracy.

Question 4

What's the difference between microblading, shading and combo brows? "

Accepted Answer

Microblading is done by using a manual blade to create hair-like strokes. This technique gives the brows a more natural appearance as if it was your own hair.

Microblading & Shading are two techniques combined to give the brows a more filled in appearance that resembles makeup while still appearing natural. This specific technique combination can benefit clients with little to no hair by adding more density to help blend the areas with less.     Ombre/Powder is a technique done specifically by a machine and a makeup lovers favorite! It resembles a powder filled in brow where the tails of the eyebrow are darker and fade into a light start of the brow leaving a soft powdery look. Ombre/Powder is a also a great technique for clients that have very thick eyebrows.

Question 5

How do you pick a shape and color?

Accepted Answer

Whether you're just looking to enhance the fullness of your natural eyebrows, correct symmetry issues, or create an entirely new brow, we will take it one step at a time. We work together to choose the shape of your new brows according to your preference, our professional opinion, and measurements. Measurements are based on your brow bone structure and facial features.Because the 3-dimensional strokes are so small there is no real way to show you what they will look like, we will show you an outline of the new shape using a cosmetic pencil.

The goal is for the pigment to blend in with your natural brow color to achieve a realistic appearance. To do this, we have a variety of colors and only use a high-quality pigment that is a perfect match based on your skin tone, hair color and preference.

We will NEVER start microblading until you are 100% satisfied with the shape and color!

Question 6

Who is not suitable for microblading?

Accepted Answer

We would love to offer microblading to every client who requests it but it's important to remember that not everyone is a candidate for microblading. Below are a few scenarios that would NOT be good fits for microblading:  Using Accutane Have had Botox in the last four weeks Have gotten a deep tan or chemical/laser peel in the last two weeks Allergic to lidocaine, prilocaine, benzocaine, tetracaine or epinephrine Anyone who has a serious medical condition may require a physician's medial release (skin disease, irritation, diabetes, etc.)   Pregnant or nursing women who want to have microblading done can do so at their own discretion and will be required to sign a consent form. We highly encourage you to discuss this with your doctor first since microblading is still considered a form of tattooing.  ​ For more information about restrictions view our LBC Policies.

Question 7

Can microblading lead to scar tissue in the future?

Accepted Answer

Microblading should never lead to scar tissue! The goal of microblading is to cut the skin down the dermal-epidermal junction (top layer of the dermis) and place the pigment in this area. Scarring isn't seen until the dermis is completely broken. When you choose to get microblading, always make sure your artist is licensed and certified.
