Microblading or the Japanese method of drawing eyebrows is one of the newest and currently most popular manual techniques of drawing hairs in the industry of semi-permanent make-up.

The microblading is a perfect solution for non-exitent or disobedient eyebrows that lasts 12-24 months, depending on the skin type, the type of pigment and the post-treatment care of eyebrows. A tiny blade, which is actually a group of densely packed needles, shallowly cuts into the epidermal layer of skin in the form of hairs that are wanted to be drawn.

Using a unique hand-held instrument, the process of manual eyebrow drawing creates a very natural look and enhances the natural facial features. Maintaining the eyebrows after treatment is very simple: hairs that grow out of the box are occasionally plucked while at the same time a surface on which hair has not been growing due to many years of plucking renews, and in some cases hair re-grows.

Permanent make-up performed with a device is done with certified micro-mineral pigments that do not present any health risk and ensure compliance with the skin.
