No this is NOT Semi-permanent. Any technique done in permanent makeup is a tattoo and regardless of the techniques, tools, pigments, or the depth in the skin the work- it is a tattoo!!
Microblading is semi-permanent and not a tattoo is a popular misconception. There is NO way the artist to tell you how long the pigment will retain in the skin. Each person is so unique and lifestyles vary so greatly. So, yes while most of these techniques will fade with time, calling them Semi-permanent is very misleading.
Pain is experienced differently but everything but I do believe in keeping my clients a comfortable as possible. I apply an anesthetic or Numbing medication both before the producer and during to insure my clients are comfortable for beginning to end.
Several factors play into how long your permanent make up will last. Things such as skin type, life style, sun exposure and skin care can affect how long the client can go between touch ups. Depending on the treatment done most will last between 1-5 years.
- To keep your treatment looking the best annual touch ups are recommended.
Microblading is now a popular term for a form of permanent make up for your eyebrow. However the style and techniques are often confusing. When most people think of "Microblading" they are thinking of the manual tool used to create hair strokes. The hair stroke look and be achieved by this manual tool the looks like a small blade but it can also be make by a digital Permanent makeup machine. This PMU machine is what is used when most refer to when they use the term "Nano Brows".
- I do not use the manual tool to create my brows. Everything is done with a digital PMU machine.
Nano-strokes is a technique used to create what looks like a hair stroke. Shading is a soft deposit of color the looks more like make up.
Yes and no.
Yes, you will need a consultation if you have previous work that was done by another artist, If you have skin conditions such as Alopicia, severely unsymmetrical brows, Large scars/moles over the area, Would like a patch test or if you are are still on the fence about having the treatment done.
- Not all previous work and be gone over or touched up. Some people may require lightening or removal, others may need a color corrections, and some can be worked over. This needs to be decided by the artist.
No, You dont need a consultation before if you dont not have previous work, if you have no skin conditions and if you are sure you would like the treatment done.
