Manual microblading is a traditional technique using a handheld blade to create fine, hair-like strokes that blend seamlessly with your natural brows. At Brow Brilliance®, our skilled artists design each brow to suit your face, delivering a soft, natural result.
This method is ideal for clients with dry to normal skin who want subtle definition or have sparse areas needing realistic texture.
Manual microblading is done using a handheld tool with tiny needles that etch pigment into the skin in hair-like strokes. No machine is used, giving the artist direct control over stroke placement and pressure.
Manual microblading uses a blade and hand pressure, allowing for extremely detailed, natural strokes. Digital microblading uses a machine, which can be better for oily skin or clients wanting longer retention.
Microblading typically lasts 1 to 3 years depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.
Most clients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure as a topical numbing cream is applied beforehand. Sensitivity levels can vary from person to person.
Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and blood-thinning medications for 24 hours before the appointment. It’s also best to avoid tanning and waxing the brow area beforehand.
Aftercare involves keeping the brows dry and clean, avoiding direct sunlight, and refraining from picking or scratching the treated area. Following specific aftercare instructions is crucial for optimal healing.
Microblading is suitable for most skin types, but very oily skin or certain medical conditions may affect the results. A consultation with a technician can determine suitability.
