Manually created micro incisions on the surface of the skin filled with pigment create individual hair strokes following the natural growing pattern of the hair. Microblading is best for anyone with normal to dry skin. Oily skin does not hold microblading well, powder brows are recommended for anyone with oily skin. It is also only recommended to anyone who has not had previous permanent/semi-permanent makeup. The length of time microblading lasts is typically between 6-18 months. **This varies depending on many facotrs such as pigment retention in the skin, sun exposure (indoor and outdoor tanning), lifestyle, everyday product ingredients, and AFTERCARE.
