Yes. The procedure is performed with proper sanitation and sterilization, along with the following guidelines:
- Pre-sterilized and disposable pigment cups

- New gloves for each client and changed when needed

Microblading is the form of semi-permanent makeup that gives the illusion of real hair like strokes. It is done with a manual hand tool where pigment is inserted into the skin. Very crisp strokes are created giving the most natural results!
If you are simply unhappy with your eyebrows or if you suffer from conditions that cause hair loss microblading is absolutely for you. No more spending time in the mirror each morning trying to make your brows perfect.
