booking suggestions… keeping in mind that your brows may be darker, bolder or patchy for up to 14 days during the healing period. dry or wet healing instructions will be given after your appointment depending on your skin type and how you react during your treatment. during the 7-10 day scabbing phase, you cannot exercise, swim, tan or excessively touch your brows. touch-ups required will vary depending on the natural starting point of the brows and the end results desired. annual touch-ups are recommended for best results and maintenance.

style options… unlike the old block, sharpie-esque effects of the past techniques, microblading / micropigmentation is natural, customizable and best of all, realistic. pick a more structured, natural look with fine detailed hair strokes; a combination of hair strokes with enhanced shading; go for a full blown shaded ombre brow; or go more ‘real’ with big, fluffy, unstructured and stray hair strokes.

expectation vs reality… choosing a natural look will give you the guidelines to enhance for a night out with ease; combination brows are great for those ‘I woke up like this’ mornings; an ombre brow will give a more dramatic, bold and solid look; while a fluffy brow will look‘imperfectly unkept’ perfectly. brows should be built up over multiple treatments when wanting to go bigger or bolder, to ensure proper implantation and to avoid scarring or crowding.

what to expect… color pigments are implanted throughout the brow to either fully reproduce, define, cover gaps or fill-in over plucked brows. longevity will vary with many factors taking place - lifestyle, ethnicity, skin type, environment, skincare, etc. - because inks are no longer used, your tattoo should naturally fade away but can last up to 8 years. expect some swelling for up to 24hrs after your treatment, icing is recommended if needed.

EYEBROWS

EYELINER

style options… eyes can be enhanced on the upper and / or lower lash lines to give a more accentuated look and added definition. go with a subtle lash enhancement to keep makeup options open, a natural day-to-day line for a little extra boost, or go for a bold dramatic winged or smokey eye look.

expectation vs reality… while the convenience of a smokey eye may be desirable, remember that you should think about your lifestyle and everyday upkeep. if you don’t leave the house without a full face of makeup, than smokey may be your convenient style. remember that you can always add more to enhance for a night out, but you can’t take it away and run to the bank.

what to expect… color pigments are placed into the eyelash line giving your eyes a brighter and more youthful appearance. longevity will vary with many factors taking place - lifestyle, ethnicity, skin type, environment, etc. - because inks are no longer used, your tattooing should naturally fade away but can last up to 8 years. expect some swelling for up to 48hrs after your treatment.

booking suggestions… keep in mind, you will not be able to wear any eye makeup for up to 14 days after your treatment, do not book if you have a special event planned. book with the ability to take at least 48hrs for any possible swelling to go down. annual touch-ups are recommended for best results and maintenance.

style options… highlight the natural shape of your lips or balance out any imperfections. choose to just define your outlining lip contours; add a natural blushing of color; or you can pump and plump it up to enhance - within limits - your natural lip structures.

expectation vs reality… going with defining your lip contours will blend the pigment inwards from the lip line for an ombred, more defined look; the blushed look will give you the appearance of a subtle lipstick or tinted balm, with colors enhancing when hydrated - chap stick - but still able to be covered with a darker color for variation; if you’re a ‘one color for all occasions’ than you are able to go big and bold, while also having the option to exaggerate the natural lash line.

what to expect… pigments are implanted into the lips to provide subtle color and enhancements. since you used your lips the most, scabbing is quite common and should not be picked and left to flake off naturally. final results will vary and depend on natural lip color with longevity varying with many factors taking place - lifestyle, ethnicity, skin type, environment, etc. -. expect some swelling for up to 72hrs after your treatment, icing is recommended if needed.
