Microblading and Ombre Brows FAQ

• How should I prepare before my appointment?

  Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medication (like ibuprofen) for 24 hours before. Don’t tan or use retinol/skincare acids around the brow area for at least a week, and come to your appointment with clean, makeup free skin.

• What’s the difference between Microblading and Ombre Brows?

  Microblading creates fine, hair-like strokes for a natural look, while Ombre gives a soft, shaded powder effect. We’ll help you choose the best technique for your skin type and brow goals!

• Will I need a patch test?

  Yes, absolutely. A patch test is required at least 48 hours before your appointment to ensure you don’t have any reactions to the pigments or numbing cream.

• What should I expect after the treatment?

  Your brows will appear darker for the first few days, and mild redness or swelling is normal. They’ll start to soften and lighten during the healing process, usually around 7 to 14 days.

• When will I need a top-up?

  A top-up is usually required around 6 to 8 weeks after your first appointment to perfect the shape and colour. After that, a yearly colour boost will keep them looking fresh.

• Can I go back to my usual skincare routine straight away?

  Wait until your brows are fully healed before reintroducing active ingredients like retinol or acids around the area.

• Will it hurt?

  We use a high-quality numbing cream to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment. Most clients describe the feeling as a little scratchy, but totally manageable!
