GENERAL FAQ

What is Microblading?

Microblading is a newer technique that is designed to cosmetically enhance your natural eyebrows. This method is ideal for any client looking to improve their existing shape that they are lacking. The result is fine hair-like strokes that replicate the natural eyebrow hairs. This opens a wide spectrum for clients that suffer from natural density, alopecia, or hair loss due to chemotherapy.

How long does it last?

Depending on the client’s lifestyle, skin type, and how well they follow the after care instructions, the results can last anywhere from 6 months up to 2 years.

Do I have to get 2 sessions?

Yes, it is required. Not everyone’s skin will retain pigment as well as others. The second part of this procedure is to perfect the lines that didn’t retain as well. Some clients may need the smallest touch up. We will not know how you heal until you get through the entire healing process the first time.

Does it hurt?

I get different reviews all the time because everyone’s pain tolerance varies. I have some clients that experience no pain at all and some clients that experience an annoyance, but nothing severe. Numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure to keep you comfortable.

Is it safe?

Yes, absolutely! I provide the best sterilized, disposable needles, and supplies.

Will I be swollen?

It is rare that I experience a client swelling but you may have some redness around your eyebrows that will go down after a couple of hours.

Will I look crazy right after? Should I take the day off of work?

No, you will leave with natural looking eyebrows. The next day the color will intensify. This happens when your skin is in the healing process but doesn’t stay as dark. It will fade 20/40% after 10 days.

How long is the procedure?

3 hours. Please allow enough time so you are in no rush on the day of your appointment. I truly like to take my time with each client, this is very important to me.

How long is the healing process?

It takes about 10-14 days.

What can’t I do after the procedure?

You can NOT do the following:

Get them wet
Workout heavily / Sweat
Put make up or lotions near the treated area
Exfoliate
Sun tanning
Sauna / Hot tub
Swimming
Waxing, tweezing / shaving
Sleep on your face

I will give you an after care sheet to take home as your guide during the healing process.

What is the upkeep like? When will I need to come in for an annual visit?

Usually clients that are oily will come in 6 months after to keep their eyebrows fresh. Oily skin has a tendency to not heal as sharp as dry skin would. It truly depends on the client’s skin retention as time goes on. I suggest most clients to make an appointment to come by so I can take a closer look and assess their eyebrows.

Usually, brides will book a month or a year before. It depends if you are definite about using an certain artist.
That will be totally up to you.

How should I prepare for my makeup trial?

Please come with a fresh moisturized face. No makeup at all. If you are coming from work, we do provide a cleanser to wash your face. If you have any ideas in mind, please bring photos for your artist to go over with you.

Can I bring in some of my own products for the trial?

Yes, that is no problem. We are open to using some of your products if it works best with your skin!

The trial is about 2 hours. We like to get to know our brides and take the time with what their needs are and how they envision the look on their wedding day.

Is there a minimum number of people required for off site makeup?

We require a minimum of 5-6 people for bridal makeup services. For other services, the minimum does vary.
Please inquire us for more information!

Will you hold my wedding date once inquired about?

When you first inquire for wedding makeup, if we are available, your date will be on a “soft hold”. Meaning, if we get another inquiry for your date, we will reach out to you before taking payment from someone else. Your date will not be permanently on hold until you put down a deposit. After a deposit is made, your date will be held permanently.

When do I need to send back the contract by?

We ask that you please send back your contract filled out to us 6 months before your wedding date.

What are your travel fees?

Travel fees vary depending on the location that our artists will be traveling to. Please inquire for more information about this regarding your event.

Is gratuity included in your pricing list?

Gratuity is not included in our prices and is entirely at the client’s discretion.

Do you create a schedule for the day of the event?

We leave scheduling up to the bride / wedding planner. We just ask that you assign 1 person per each makeup artist first thing in the morning, and have other clients flow in from there on out throughout the day. Depending on the time everyone needs to be ready, we will determine what time we need to start/set up the morning of.

Am I responsible if someone in my bridal party backs out at the last minute?

Yes, this is also in all of our contracts. You must confirm the number of clients that are receiving makeup services when you send your contract back, 6 months before your wedding date. If there are any changes made a month prior to your wedding date, you will still be responsible for full payment of what amount is written on the contract.

Can you accommodate day-of add ons?

We will do our best to try and accommodate an additional person that wants their makeup done, but we do only have a certain amount of time. If there is enough time after everyone who was originally on the contract to have makeup services done, and only if the artist is available to stay longer, then we will gladly accommodate!
