MICROBLADING

What is Microblading?

Microblading also known across the globe as Cosmetic or eyebrow Tattooing, Nano Eyebrows, Permanent makeup, hairstroke brows, Microstroking, feather tattooing, 3D brows and Brow Micropigmentation first rose to fame in Asia in the the early 2000's, however the treatment technique (depositing pigment into the skin) originated centuries ago and has evolved over time. Microblading of the eyebrows is a manual technique whereby tiny needles clustered together in a row to fo
rm a thin blade to deposit pigment into the first layer of the skin to create and replicate hairstroke like patterns. The technique when performed correctly results in natural, realistic looking brows.

Aftercare Advice for Microblading
