Answers to the most frequently asked questions
Microblading and SofTap, which is done 100% by hand. The instruments we use are only used once by you and then discarded, making it the most sterile method. Because everything is done by hand, we have more control over placement of the pigment, quicker healing times, and we are able to achieve a more natural look.
Your first appointment takes about 2.5 to 3 hours. That includes your consultation, mapping and designing your shape together, numbing, and the procedure itself — We never want to rush the design part, since that’s what makes your brows look right on your face. Your touch-up session is quicker, usually about 1.5 hours.
Most clients are surprised by how manageable it is. We apply a numbing agent before we start and keep it on throughout, so what you feel is more of a light scratching or pressure than actual pain.
No. Your body needs time to heal each area properly, and I want to give my full attention to one procedure at a time so the result is as precise as possible. We can map out a timeline together at your consultation.
You’ll see some light flaking or peeling in the first 7 to 10 days — that’s totally normal, so don’t pick at it. The color will look bold at first, then soften as it heals, with your final result settling in over about 4 to 6 weeks.
Yes. Most clients go right back to their normal routine the same day or the next. Your brows will look a bit darker and bolder for the first several days while they heal, so if you have an event or photos coming up, plan your appointment a few weeks ahead.
Yes, we use topical numbing products before and during your procedure to keep you as comfortable as possible from start to finish.
No, unfortunately. For the safety of you and baby, we don’t perform microblading or permanent cosmetics on clients who are pregnant or nursing. This is standard across the industry since the numbing agents and pigments used haven’t been tested for that. Once you’re done nursing, we’d love to get you in.
Absolutely — some of my favorite clients are women who’ve been drawing on their brows for 30 years and are just done with it. Permanent cosmetics is wonderful for thinning brows, low vision, or hands that don’t cooperate with a pencil the way they used to. We’ll just look at your skin’s texture and health together and adjust the technique to get you the most natural result.
Think of the first session as laying the foundation — we shape it, color it, and your skin does its healing. As it heals, some of that pigment naturally softens and fades, and every client’s skin takes it a little differently. The second session lets us come back, see exactly how your skin held the color, and perfect the shape and saturation so it’s exactly right.
No. Without it, your brows can heal patchy or uneven, and the color won’t be as rich or long-lasting. The second session isn’t a touch-up add-on — it’s part of the process, and it’s what makes the difference between good brows and brows you love.
No, and that’s actually a good thing! Right after your procedure the color will look bolder and darker than your final result — that’s normal as the top layer of skin heals. It softens over the following few weeks and settles into a more natural shade, which is exactly why we do that second session, to fine-tune the color once we see how it settled.
No, microblading does not last forever. It is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo designed to fade over time. Results typically last between 1 and 3 years, depending on your skin type, skincare routine, and sun exposure
