What is Permanent Makeup?

This process of micro-blading involves inserting pigment into the dermal layer of the skin and is a form of tattooing.
All instruments that enter the skin or come in contact with body fluids are sterile and disposable. All instruments are single use only and are disposed after each use. Cross contamination guidelines are adhered to always.
Generally, results are positive but please take into consideration that a perfect result is not realistic. It is common to expect a touch-up after the healing is completed.
Initially the color will appear much darker than the end result. Typically the color will fade 40-50% within 5-7 days, resulting in a softer and more natural appear. The pigment is semi-permanent and will fade over time thus needing to be touched-up within 6 months - 2 years.

FOR YOUR COMFORT:

Orlando Brow Studio recommends wearing comfy, warm clothing and/or bringing a sweater.

For your comfort during your microblading session, we recommend bringing headphones or earbuds to listen to music, podcasts, or anything else that helps you relax. Some clients find the sounds associated with the process noticeable, and having something to listen to can enhance your experience. Your comfort is our priority, and we strive to make your appointment as pleasant as possible
