Microblading, Nano, and Ombre Brows

We always do two sessions. This allows us to add color very lightly during the first session to see how your skin absorbs the pigment. It's important to go slowly with pigmentation because we never want to make your eyebrows too dark. So in our second session, when we are able to see how much pigment your skin absorbed, we can go back in and fix any missing patches, darken to your desired color, and really craft your perfect brows. The second session is no charge, as both sessions are included in the initial payment.

There's a few different options for getting all the information you need. In order to learn what eyebrow shape is best for you, what eyebrow color is best for you, and what method (microblading, nano, or ombre) might be suitable, you can either make a consultation with our East Lansing location or take our online quiz!

Our touch-ups are currently $240 every 3-5 years. Some places will charge more if you wait longer between touch-ups, but we actually encourage our clients to wait if their brows still look good. We check in on a yearly basis to evaluate whether you need a touch-up or not!

Less touch-ups means a more natural result. If you touch-up too frequently, the results can begin to look too solid and like a tattoo. 

People who lack eyebrow hair often think that microblading is their best choice, but the strokes created during microblading can actually look very unnatural on bare skin. Strokes are created to mimic the natural hairs of the brow, but when they don't have anything to blend into, they can look like they're just stamped onto your forehead. Microblading strokes also have a tendency to fade and bleed outward over time, resulting in thicker lines that look chunky on skin with no hair. In most cases of people without eyebrow hair, we recommend the ombre method.

We require consultations if you have any existing eyebrow scarring. Because it is impossible to predict how your scars may react to the pigment, we have to be very careful. Some people have scars that easily take pigment and end up darker than the rest of their brows, while others have scars that refuse to take any pigment at all. Consultations are very important for all cases of scarring.

Yes, within reason. If the brows were done unevenly by another artist, we may be able to correct and re-balance the brows for you. We are also able to offer color correction if your microblading strokes have faded gray or red. If we are not confident in our ability to fix your brows, we will not offer correction to you. For example, if your color was done too dark by another artist, adding more pigment to it is very unlikely to make anything better.

In these cases, we may recommend removal instead. We offer laser removal for clients whose old brow work is too dark, uneven, or unshapely to be corrected. We require a consultation for correction and removal work so that we can get a background of your previous experience and issues. 

Healing will slightly depend on the method. Microblading tends to have a harsher healing experience with some scabbing and peeling for the first few weeks. Ombre and nano methods are gentler and will usually not result in any scabbing. A more experienced artist will mean easier healing.
