The entire process takes only 2 hours and there is no downtime.
Absolutely!!! I pride myself in doing the most natural work possible. Microblading is achieved by using a manual hand tool. Resulting in thin, crisp, hair-like strokes. You’ll receive the most natural looking brows.
It’s for anyone who wants and/or has struggled with achieving their perfect brows. If you want to save time on your makeup routine, this is for you. If you’re a busy mom, business woman, have an active lifestyle, have alopecia, have sparse brows, or is just tired of filling in your brows with makeup everyday, this is for you. If you’re tired of sweating off your brows when it’s hot outside, avoiding the pool during pool parties, or having them rub off on your boyfriend or husbands face, this is for you. If your sick and tired of being sick and tired of not having the brows of your dreams, this is for YOU!!!
Some swelling and tenderness following your treatment is normal. It will quickly disappear. Immediately following your treatment, your brows will appear darker than how it will actually heal. It will look darker than you expected but remember it will fade up to 40%. After about 5-7 days, the color will be lighter, maybe lighter than expected, and that’s why a touch up is recommended 6-8 weeks after the initial treatment to achieve a rich color.
Microblading lasts up to 18 months. Pigment retention depends on skin type, aftercare, use of certain skin products, pigments used, immune system, medications, sun exposure and other factors. Touch ups are recommended yearly or sooner to prevent natural fading but frequency depends on factors listed above. 1 touch up is included which is recommended 4-6 weeks after the initial procedure.
With eyebrow microblading, our artists create beautiful, semi-permanent eyebrows, using delicate process of hand drawing small tattoo strokes to mimic natural hairs. The results leave you with defined, natural-looking brows that will enhance your unique face shape.
Eyebrow microblading, also known as eyebrow feathering or eyebrow tattooing, allows us to achive your desired look by implanting color micro-pigment beneath the surface of the skin by means of a tiny, sterile, disposable needle.
Whether your brows are sparse and uneven, or you're looking for a low-maintenance, polished appearance, eyebrow microblading can enhance your current arches.

The benefits to eyebrow microblading include:
  • The look of full and even brows
  • Sweat and waterproof
  • Camouflages sparse areas for a natural look
  • Hides scars
  • Semi-permanent, which allows adjustment to your brow shape as you age or as beauty trends change
Pre Appointment:

For best results, we recommend taking the following precautions prior to your eyebrow microblading appointment:
  • Stop using skin thinners (vitamin A, glycolic acids, exfoliation) on the eyebrow area 2 weeks prior to your appointment.
  • Do not consume alcohol, caffeine, or blood thinners (aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, Niacin, etc.) 48 hours before your procedure to avoid excess bleeding.
  • Avoid sun/tanning bed exposure for 30 days BEFORE and AFTER your procedure. If you show up for your appointment with a new tan or a sunburn you will need to reschedule and will forfeit your deposit. As your skin exfoliates from a sunburn, it will take the tattoo pigment with it.

Some cosmetic procedures should be completed prior to your brow tattoo:
  • Eyebrow waxing and shaping (2 days in advance)
  • Eyebrow tinting (1 week in advance)
  • Cosmetic Botox or fillers (2 weeks in advance)

Appointment Day:

Consultation & Brow Design:
As artists, we will work with you to shape and design a set of brows that highlights your natural facial features. From there, we choose a pigment match based on your skin tone and hair color.

Numbing:
We want you to be as comfortable as possible! Prior to the procedure, a topical anethetic (4% lidocaine ointment) is applied. We also layer an additional numbing agent during the tattooing.

Tattooing:
Your tattoo artist will carefully create small strokes of pigment that mimic the appearance of natural brow hair within the designed shape.

Post Appointment Healing:
The full, deep healing process takes 6-8 weeks; however, your visible top layers of skin will heal after 10-14 days. Your brows will experience a few normal mild side effects (slight redness, itchiness and peeling), which clients compare to the feeling of sunburn.

Expect your tattoo to appear darker for the first 3 to 5 days. After day 4 or 5, light peeling will occur, revealing lighter and softer hair strokes. Long-term aftercare is crucial for the longevity of your eyebrow investment. More information is available on our After Care page.
Your results will vary depending on skin type, lifestyle, and the immediate and long-term aftercare of your new tattoo. Once fully healed (after 6 weeks), the colour will reduce by 30 to 50 percent. Patchiness and lightness can be perfected during your touchup session.
The majority of our clients require 2 sessions to have their brows perfected. Touch up appointments can be made 6-8 weeks after your first visit. Clients with fuller brows may not need additional touchups; however, clients with little or no natural brow hairs, or have corrected work, may need further density added.
After we've achieved your desired brow, an annual touchup is highly recommended to maintain the tattoos.
Your brow tattoo will last 1-3 years depending on lifestyle, sun exposure, and skin type. Oilier skin types tend to fade quicker than drier skin types.
To ensure maximum comfort during the procedure we use a topical numbing with 5% lidocaine prior and during your procedure. Since pain tolerance and sensitivity varies individually, we can't say exactly how it will feel for you. The procedure uses a smaller needle than traditional tattooing and should hurt significantly less. Clients have related the procedure with eyebrow threading, plucking multiple hairs at once, or a light scratching of the skin.
You may experience more sensitivity if the procedure is performed during or near your menstrual cycle.
We incorporate as much of the natural brow hairs as possible. Any strays that lay outside of the brows design will be removed.
Yes, it all depends on how much pigment is left from the existing tattoo. In some cases, I can cover it up with Microblading and a mix of color correcting pigments. In other cases, you will need to have as much of the existing pigment removed first. This process may take a few sessions. After that, you can get a fresh Microblading treatment.
Yes, I use a two step process to numb the area. Please note that you will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle
Do not tan or have a sunburned face Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, or Ibuprofen 24 hours before procedure No alcohol or caffeine on the day of procedure No waxing, threading, or tinting 2-3 days before. Please read pre-procedure advice
Permanent makeup is NOT recommended
  • Sick (cold, flu, etc.)
  • Used Accutane in the past year
  • Pregnant or nursing
  • Diabetic
  • Undergoing chemotherapy (consult your doctor)
  • Viral infections and/or diseases
  • Epilepsy
  • A pacemaker or major heart problems
  • Had an organ transplant
  • Skin irritations (rashes, sunburn, acne, etc.) or psoriasis near the area to be treated
  • Had Botox in less than 2 weeks
please refer to Pre-procedure & aftercare. A copy of the full aftercare procedure will be provided at your appointment . Please note: Eyebrows will appear darker and bolder due to natural scabbing and healing for the first 7 days. It will fade up to 40%. This is normal for permanent makeup.
Although microblading is a safe and low risk procedure, for your own safety and peace of mind, we will not tattoo any clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If you discover you are pregnant and have an appointment scheduled, please notify us so we can reschedule and make future arrangements.
We will not tattoo anyone who is on Accutane, as the medication places you at risk for hypersensitivity, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. Your skin needs 12 months to normalize prior to eyebrow microblading.
If you have extremely oily skin, the hair stroke eyebrow technique will NOT work well for you. The constant production of oil will cause the hair strokes to heal with a diffused, softer look. Your end result will look more powdery than defined.

If you have little to no existing hair, your tattoo will appear more two-dimensional than those clients who have more hair naturally.
If you are a frequent smoker, your pigment may fade sooner.
If you are iron deficient or anemic, your pigment may fade sooner and bleeding/bruising may occur during and after the procedure.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have had your eyebrows previously tattooed, you must provide a picture before scheduling. We cannot guarantee results for cases such as these. In some instances where the previous work is too dark, dense, discoloured, or large, tattoo removal will be highly recommended before our services will be considered. Previously tattooed areas will almost always require additional sessions and will be charged accordingly. Some special cases may be considered. Please contact us with any further questions.
During your appointment, we will analyze your skins undertone to anticipate how pigment colours will fade in the future. We also mix pigments to ensure the colour blends well with your existing eyebrow and hair colour.

The majority of our clients' tattoos stay true to colour and lighten naturally over time; however, in some cases colours may fade to different tones according to the individual's response to the pigments.

Many factors affect these changes, such as lifestyle and iron deficiencies. At your follow up appointment, we will analyze how your body has responded to the initial colour. Special formula alteration to correct the colour and to prevent futher change is made at this time. Your eyebrow tattoo will eventually look softer and have more of a "powdered" look. This happens with all clients as the skin ages. To keep your hair strokes looking good, a refresher appointment is suggested every 1 to 2 years. Results vary with each client.
Absolutely! We pride ourselves on having an immaculate and sterile studio space. We only practice with single use, disposable needles and supplies. This means each set-up for a new client is safely discarded afterwards. Each of our stations are thoroughly disinfected before opening and after each procedure throughout the day. We are blood borne pathogens certified SNHD (Southern NEVADA Health District) approved.
The results and longevity of the eyebrow tattoos will depend greatly on how you take care of your brows during the healing process and beyond. Each client's skin responds differently, both in the length of time it takes to heal, and the number of sessions required to achieve your desired results and colour retention. This information acts as a guideline only; we cannot guarantee your results.

EYEBROW TATTOO HEALING PROCESS:
Most clients require at least 2 sessions for ideal results. The 1st session is to build shape and gain symmetry; the 2nd session is to perfect the brows and add density.

Adjustments and touch-ups can be made 3 months after your first visit. Due to high demand, please plan to book your touch-up appointment 2 months in advance.

The complete healing process takes about 6 to 8 weeks; however, the visible top layer of skin should heal after 10-14 days.
Immediately following the eyebrow microblading procedure, you may experience some minor discomfort on the treated area. Many of the clients who receive eyebrow tattoos at our Calgary studio compare the sensation to that caused by a sunburn, with redness and swelling. Symptoms typically subside within 24 to 48 hours.

During the first 3 to 5 days, your brows will initially appear to be darker and more sharply defined than the final result. The hair strokes may blend and look wet/painted on. This is normal and will lighten after a few days when the skin sheds. Give your brows a few weeks and the hair stokes will become clearer.
Minimal scabbing, flaking, and dryness of the skin are normal after the first few days of the healing period. To avoid loss of eyebrow hair stroke pigmentation, do not itech or remove scabs. They will naturally fall off on their own.

Results vary client to client. Not all eyebrow tattoos heal clean and crisp. Hair strokes for oilier skin types tend to heal more solid and powdery, while drier skin types heal more crisp and defined.
  • Application of any brow makeup for 2 weeks.
  • Scratching or removal of scabs, dry skin/flakiness.
  • Direct water on the eyebrow tattoo and the use of cleansers, soaps, and heavy creams.
  • Wash around the areas using a cleaning cloth or oil-free makeup wipe.
  • Vaseline, Neosporin, and any other petroleum based products.
  • Activities that will cause sweating for 10 days.
  • Swimming pools, hot tubs, or other bodies of water for 14 days.
  • UV exposure (including tanning booths).
  • Laser light therapy, as it can darken/lighten or distort the pigment.
  • Exfoliants, retinol acids or AHA's on the area for 30 days after the appointment (causes premature fading).
  • Massages, facials, or skin treatments.
  • Eyebrow tattoos normally last 1 to 3 years depending on lifestyle, skin type, and aftercare.
  • Exposure to the sun and tanning beds can cause fading and discolouration of the pigment. Once completely healed, always apply sunscreen (50 SPF or greater) on brow area.
  • Avoid using chemical exfoliants on the brows, as it will cause fading.
  • Do not do laser to your brow area (IPL). Some lasers may change the colour of the ink.
  • Additional eyebrow makeup application may still be required post tattoo to achieve your desired look.
  • Yearly touchups are recommended to maintain your results.
