What is Microblading?
Microblading is a manual method to recreate, correct and improve the appearance of natural eyebrows. Measurements are taken to map out the best shape brow based on bone structure, no two brows are alike!
See Emily microblading on youtube here!
This procedure is ideal for both people who have natural eyebrows and those who don't. We can even do partial add-ons if you only need some areas worked on, contact for individual pricing. The results are natural looking and long lasting. It is a form of semi-permanent makeup. Ink is deposited with a manual pen that allows the artist to draw crisp, thin and natural looking hairs. A touch up "perfection" appointment is required within 30-42 days of first treatment to perfect shape and hair strokes. Refreshes are required every 6-18 months to keep color intensity and your eyebrow shape on point. . .each person's refresh requirements will vary based on a number of factors that can be discussed at a consultation. No stencils are ever used! The shape of eyebrows is calculated according to each person's facial morphology and golden mean (phi 1.618). Ink pigments used are the best on the market, they are vegan, and do not contain heavy metals such as iron oxide. Interested in microblading? Texts/calls welcome @ 484-894-8194!

-
DO NOT take Aspirin, Niacin, Advil, Ibprofin, Aleve, or any blood thinning or painkiller medications within 24 hours of procedure. These will make you bleed excessively. Excessive bleeding during procedure will negatively affect your semi-permanent makeup application. In some cases, application may need to be prematurely stopped.

DO NOT tan or sunbathe one week prior to procedure
-
DO NOT wax brows, tint, do microdermabrasion or use chemical peels, or topical Retinals one week prior to procedure.
