FAQ
Who is the Microblading Artist?
Meredith Little Sky is the Eyebrow Microblading Artist at BROWMA. She was trained by a beauty academy based in Orange County, California.
What is Microblading?
Microblading is a specialized technique of eyebrow tattooing that creates realistic looking hair strokes, resulting in natural looking eyebrows. Microblading will completely fade over the course of a few years. Microblading is sometimes referred to as feather brows, 3-D Brows, and eyebrow embroidery.
Is Microblading permanent?
What is the difference between Microblading and a Tattoo?
Microblading varys from a traditional tattoo in that it is a semi-permanent procedure that uses pigments engineered to fade away completely after 1-3 years. Tattoos are permanent but will still discolor as they age. This means that adjustments to the brow shape and hair density are achieved much easier with Microblading than with tattooing.
Does Microblading hurt?
Microblading is designed to be a gentle procedure, however you may still feel some discomfort. During the course of the procedure, our Brow Artist will apply 2 different topical numbing creams that immediately go to work reducing pain and minimizing redness and swelling.
What's expected after Microblading?
Mild swelling, itching, light scabbing, light bruising and dry skin is expected shortly following the procedure. Applying Buddha Butter (as instructed in our aftercare instructions) helps moisturize the skin, lessening scabbing and tightness.
How is the eyebrow shape and color determined?
The shape of the eyebrow is determined by the position of the browbone, eyes, nose and any existing eyebrow hair. The pigments are chosen to complement the skin tone and enhance the existing hair color.
