No, but it can sting. I’m trained with multiple types of numbing creams to help keep you comfortable.
Yes! Tattoo pigment is being placed under the skin – it is permanent!
Microblading is a 3D hair stroke eyebrow tattoo that uses a small handheld tool to implant pigment under your skin. What makes this technique so natural is the skin space between each stroke. This technique makes a very natural realistic 3D brow customized to enhance each individual’s natural beauty!
If you have sensitive skin or have oily skin this technique may not be the best option. In this case, a powdered eyebrow will be a more suitable option.
Kara will mimic the stippling movement done in drawing and painting to create a filled-in brow. The stippling movement is done by ‘drawing’ dots that together produce a color throughout the brow!
The Combo Brow is a combination of the Microblading and Powder Brow techniques. This gives the brow more fullness and definition.
Kara can perform a color correction and in some cases, a LI-FT removal process.
Eyeliner has the greatest longevity. You are likely looking at wanting a re-touch approximately 5 to 7 years after your initial procedure.
Powder Brows can last anywhere from 1 to 3 years depending on skin type (normal, oily, dry), age(youth, mature) and lifestyle (retinol creams, sun exposure, chemical peels). On average most people will want a refreshment around 18-24 months.
Microblading can last anywhere from 1 to 3 years depending on skin type (normal, oily, dry), age(youth, mature) and lifestyle (retinol creams, sun exposure, chemical peels). On average most people will want a refreshment around 18 months.
Permanent Lip Color, if you do them light and natural-looking you’re going to maybe consider touching them up 3 to 5 years. If you happen to do your lips a bit of a darker color there’s a good chance you could last about five years without a re-touch.
The aftercare phase is roughly 10 days long. Your brows will be darker the first few days following the treatment. You may experience some flaking – this is normal!! By day 3 or 4, your brows will be lightening up. After the 10 days, the top layer of skin has healed!. You will be given instructions and everything you need to have a successful healing process at the treatment appointment.
