Eastside Microblading Studio & Academy
Bellevue microblading is a method of semi-permanent makeup, which creates the appearance of fine hair strokes in your brows. It can be used to fill in gaps, define your brow shape, and give you the fuller brows you've always wanted. Also known as eyebrow embroidery, feathering, or 3d brows, it is a safe and effective way to achieve your desired look without the use of permanent makeup. It is also a great solution for those who are losing their eyebrow hair due to alopecia or chemotherapy.
Before the procedure begins, the artist will provide a consultation to assess your face shape and color preferences. Then, the brows will be measured to ensure they fit your unique facial structure and are the correct size for your eyes. Then, anesthetic is applied to reduce discomfort. Next, the artist will begin the process of tattooing the brows.
You will need to allow the brows to heal for a few days before you can start wearing makeup again, but this doesn't usually interfere with your daily routine. It's recommended to avoid using eyeshadow or mascara until the brows are fully healed, and to keep them protected with a balm or ointment. In addition, you should contact your artist if any rashes or redness develop around the area.
For those who want to avoid the irritation and expense of having to apply a new liner each day, lash enhancement lines are an ideal option. This type of specialized eyebrow tattoo is more effective than traditional permanent eyeliner because it focuses on the outer edges of the lashes instead of the inside corner, and it creates a darkened effect that looks more natural.
If you have a history of cold sores or herpes, you should take an antiviral medication prior to your appointment to avoid the risk of infection. Additionally, you should schedule your appointment during a time when you are feeling well, as the procedure cannot be performed when you're experiencing an outbreak.
Training to become a microblading artist is offered as part of larger courses such as beauty or cosmetology school programs, or as standalone classes. Regardless of which course you attend, it's important to find an experienced instructor who can guide you through the process. Your instructor should also be able to provide you with the tools and skills that you need to succeed in this rewarding career. The best way to do this is by enrolling in a class that is fully licensed and accredited, and by checking reviews of previous students.
