FAQ

Although both services are permanent makeup procedures, the difference in look is quite evident. Microblading is a method used to create hyperealistic hair strokes by using a hand tool (Microblade) that will last up too 3 years. Microblading does not work on: Oily skin (would require several touch ups), chronic acne and skin complications such as eczema, dermetits, psoriasis, keratosis pilaris. Ombré powder is a method used with a nano needle machine to imitate the look of makeup giving it a soft powder and ombré effect. This procedure lasts up too 3 years Ombré powder works on: All skin types

While PMU and tattoo could be very similar, there are some major differences PMU (Permanent Make-Up) also known as micropigmentation is a method used with a much lighter and finer needle/blade to insert small amounts of pigment right above the dermal layer on the skin that will last up too 3 years. Tattoo machines use ink that reach deep into the subcutaneous layer (hypodermis) that could last a life time and over time change the colour of your brows to red or blue

Microblading, Microshading and Ombré powder all last between 3-5 years. Your permanent brows will fade due to many factors such as: natural skin exfoliation, sun exposure, medications and the use of creams/chemicals, etc. Depending on you skin, you may need to maintain your permanent brows every 1-2 years to keep them looking the way they did when you initially got them done.

Depending on your pain tolerance you may or may not experience uncomfort and pain during the procedure. We take all necessary steps to try to reduce the pain or uncomfort you may feel during the procedure by using a topical anesthetic cream of 5%. The treated area may feel slightly tender immediately after the procedure. Tenderness will go down within a few days.

For clients with previous eyebrow tattoo i always recommend Ombré powder or Combo brows (mix of Microblading with either Ombré powder or Microshading) due to the fact microblading on its own will not cover up the previous tattoo and it will look unusual to reshape the brows using just hair strokes. Depending on the colour of the eyebrow tattoo i may need to use a colour correcting pigment to conceal/cancel out (red, purple, blue, green) looking brows

With proper maintenance, your eyebrow tint could last you anywhere between 1-3 weeks. Although eyebrow tinting is a low maintenance procedure, there are a few things you could do to pro-long the tint such as: Trying to keep it dry by 1. Avoiding overly cleansing your brows 2. Avoiding makeup wipes on the brow area 3. Avoiding oil based products on the brows It is also highly recommended to come in with no spray tan on as this could affect the results of your tint. Please allow 24 hours after your tint appointment to tan.

Throw away your brow gel! Brow lamination is the latest and hottest brow treatment to hit 2019. It is essentially a perm for your eyebrows, but without the same harsh chemicals! This treatment will stimulate hair growth while also straightening the brow hairs, it will redirect and lift the brow hairs so they could stay in place all day without having to always brush them upwards using your brow gel This treatment will last up too 8 weeks (2 months)

POST PROCEDURE: For atleast 48 hours before your procedure do not consume any alchohol, Caffeine, Vitamin E, Aspirin, Niacin, Fish oil supplements or Ibuprofen. If you've been on Accutane in the past you must wait atleast a year before getting this procedure done It is highly recomended to avoid sun exposure and tanning beds atleast 30 days before and after this procedure. If you come in with a fresh tan or sun burn we will have to reschedule until your skin has fully healed. Due to the fact, sun burns will cause your skin to shed and this will take your pigment away with it If you get fillers it must be done 6 weeks before getting permanent makeup or 6 weeks after. DAY OF PROCEDURE: Because the aftercare requires you to avoid steam, hot water, sauna's, pools for 7-10 days. I highly recommend showering before your appointment GET COMFY! Depending on the PMU procedure you are getting done, be aware that you will be laying down for a long period of time. Therefore, i recommend dressing comfy, and bring some earphones/pods if you like Please do not come in with heavy makeup, especially foundation on your forehead and makeup on your brows as it will be wipped off anyway during the procedure. If you'd like your brows done a specific way, please bring a photo as refrence (must be realistic, as each individual's brows are unique to fit their facial features)
