WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MICROBLADING AND NANO?
AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR EITHER?
Microblading and nano are both the look of individual hair strokes. Microblading is only good for dry-combo and not too dark skin, whereas Nano is good for ALL skin types. Microblading lasts 1-3 years, Nano lasts 2-5 years. Microblading is only good for skin types from Fitz 1-4, sometimes 5 on the Fitzpatrick scale. The more melanin your body produces, the darker your skin/hair/eyes, and the more likely you are to keloid. A keloid is when a scar keeps growing and becoming bigger.
WHAT IS THE AFTERCARE LIKE?
Aftercare for microblading is a dry heal for about 10 days. Keep them clean gently with a mild soap and dab dry 2-3 times a day. No ointment is applied. Do not soak them in the shower, bath, or pool and avoid sweating or saunas. Do not put makeup on them or any other face products. Avoid picking, scratching and sleeping on your face as it will lead to an uneven and patchy heal. Your brows will continue to change colour over the next 21 days as that is the full amount of time it takes for them to heal.

FAQ - Machine Brows
Appointment time: 180-240 min
Longevity: 2-5 years
WHAT DOES MACHINE BROW MEAN?
Machine brow means your brows are tattooed with a machine vs. a blade. A Powder brow is a filled-in makeup look, fully shaded. A Nano brow is all single needle hair stokes. A Combo Brow is a mixture of shading and Nano hair strokes, giving you the best of both worlds. Don't be intimidated by a powder brow or any shading. It still heals very soft and natural. The kind of brow you want depends on how you wear your brows on a day-to-day basis. Any brow tattoo you chose to get will fade anywhere from 30-50% when healed.
WHAT IS AFTERCARE LIKE?
Healing takes about 10 days. You will clean your brows gently with a mild soap or cleanser, then apply the ointment provided 3-4 times a day. Do not soak them in the shower, bath or pool and avoid sweating or saunas. Do not put makeup on them or any other face products. Avoid picking, scratching and sleeping on your face as it will lead to an uneven and patchy heal. Your brows will continue to change colour over the next 21 days as that is the full amount of time it takes for them to heal.

Appointment time: 90-120 min
Longevity: 3-6 years
DO I HAVE TO TAKE MY LASH EXTENSIONS OFF, OR STOP USING MY LASH SERUM?
Yes, we will not be able to tattoo your eyeliner with lash extensions on. You must keep them off for the whole healing period, 5-10 days. We also recommend that you leave them off until after your healed from your touchup appointment as well. You should stop using your lash serum 2-3 weeks prior to getting your eyeliner tattooed as it will cause hyper sensitivity and make you bleed more easily.
CAN I WEAR CONTACTS DURING THIS SERVICE?
You should take out your contacts before your appointment and wait 24 hours to put them back in. When you do put them back in, wash your hands thoroughly first.

Avoid picking, scratching, rubbing and sleeping on your face as it will lead to an uneven and patchy heal. Your liner will continue to change colour over the next 21 days, as that is the full amount of time it takes for it to heal.

​
WHAT IF I GET COLD SORES FREQUENTLY?
We recommend that if you have EVER had a cold sore in your life, you take an antiviral 2-3 days prior and after your Lip Blush appointment. You can get an antiviral medication over the counter at any pharmacy, just let them know you are getting your lips tattooed.
WHAT IF MY LIPS ARE DARK?
If your lips are dark in some areas or as a whole, you will need Lip Neutralization before getting Lip Blush done. This service is a total of 3 sessions. The first session is to neutralize any of the dark areas to even out lip tone as well as to brighten naturally darker lips. Your second session is for any additional neutralizing and/or adding colour. And your third session is a perfecting session.
WHAT DOES AFTERCARE LOOK LIKE?
Lips heal very quickly, in about 5 days or so. In this time, you should drink through a straw and avoid spicy or salty foods, plus, eat with a utensil. Cleanse with a mild soap and apply provided aftercare ointment 5 or more times a day, as they will get very dry on day 3-4. Avoid picking or rubbing as it will lead to an uneven and patchy heal. Your lips will continue to change colour over the next 21 days, as that is the full amount of time for lips to heal
