[ What is Microblading ] by Helen Lavette of Studio Huex Eyebrows are arguably the most important facial feature. Everyone knows the faceframing, transformative power of a great set of brows. Whether you like them arched and feathered or straight and bold, a great brow is a must! Microblading, also kn own as eyebrow embroidery or 3D hair stroke, will give you the ideal brows you’ve always desired. The enhancement is achieved by tiny pen strokes with a pigment-filled needle. The process is semi-permanent, lasting anywhere from 6 months to two years depending on your skin regimen and skin type. Microblading is so precise in both color and shape, that you would never be able to tell the real hairs from the tattooed ones. Unlike permanent makeup there is no machine used during the process, which eliminates vibration and gives smoother and more precise strokes. Micropigmentation of the brows (microblading), is a two-part process: your initial appointment plus a touch up appointment 4-6 weeks later. The initial appointment will include a brow consultation. During the consultation the new brow shape is outlined and penciled on. The actual process of reconstructing the new brow includes the brow area being numbed, and then the pigment is implanted into the skin using very tiny needle strokes. The brows are built up into the new shape, and the area gradually made denser with lots of tiny hair strokes achieving the desired look. The brows will fade, often considerably and unevenly. That’s what the touch up is for. It’s also a good time to address concerns and make changes to your brow if something is off to you. The treated brows are usually a little tender, and the color a little darker than the healed results. They will lighten over time. Normal activities like work and socializing can generally be resumed the same day. They lighten considerably to a softer tone over the next 10-14 days. continued to page 29 “EVERY FACE HAS A BEAUTIFUL STORY” Looking to improve your selfie?
