For those who are not in the know regarding the microblading process, it is a form of tattooing where the aesthetician utilises a microblade in order to apply subtle marks on a thin eyebrow to make it look fuller. While it has been around for quite a few years, it has recently started gaining traction, with more and more people giving microblading a shot.
Microblading is a subtle alternative to tattooing, for those who wish to have fuller eyebrows but do not want the deep marks of a traditional tattoo. It is also something of an exact science, which is why microblading courses are so popular. Here are just a few facts about microblading for those who are still on the fence.
Unlike the traditional tattoo, microblading is not a permanent process
One of the reasons why many people are considering microblading over a traditional tattoo is that it is not permanent. It will make your eyebrows look fuller, and you will get to enjoy its effect for about two to three years. Microblading delivers a subtler effect while simultaneously offering an option for those who might not be happy with the results.
While there are methods to remove tattoos, they are generally invasive, whereas microblading ensures that the effects eventually fade after several years. While it might not seem like much, it can make all the difference for those who are not committed to fuller looking eyebrows.
Microblading can cause infections if done by an inexperienced aesthetician
Similar to tattooing, microblading involves the tool breaking into the skin in order to deliver the correct aesthetic. It means that the odds of getting an infection are relatively high if it is done in unhygienic conditions. It is more than enough reason to do a bit of homework before choosing an establishment in which to have your eyebrows done. Fortunately, the Internet is a hot pot of user reviews, and you can easily spot a shady establishment from the number of questionable reviews. Considering the risks, always research before coming to a decision.
How to prepare for microblading sessions
To adequately prepare yourself for a session, the aesthetician will provide you with a checklist of things that need to be performed. For example, it is critical not to consume alcoholic drinks or caffeine on the scheduled day of your procedure. The brow must also not come into contact with water for a week, which means that you will have to wash and style your hair beforehand thoroughly. Another vital thing to note is that most painkillers have blood thinning properties, which can ruin a microblading operation.
While there are a few risks that come with microblading, there are undoubtedly more than a few happy customers, granting them fuller looking eyebrows without having to do anything drastic. So long as you follow the instructions of the aesthetician to the letter, there is little to no risk involved in having a microblading procedure done on your eyebrows.
