Questions

What's the difference between Microblading & Natural Hairstroke Brows?

​

Microblading uses a U-shaped tool with 18 pins that etch pigment into the skin—but it often causes skin trauma, scarring, and uneven fading—especially on oily or delicate skin.

In contrast, Natural Hairstroke Brows use a powered device with a single, rapidly bobbing needle to implant tiny pigment dots. This gentler method offers smoother, longer-lasting results with minimal discomfort—and much less risk of colour smudging or scar tissue.

 

Is this treatment suitable for me?

​​​

Can I go on holiday during the healing phase?​

​​

We recommend avoiding sun exposure, swimming pools, saunas, and excessive sweating for the first 4 weeks post-treatment. Sustainable, glowing results depend on proper early healing.

​

I have a big event coming up — when should I book?

​

For best results, plan ahead. Allow at least 3–4 months before your event. This gives you time for your initial treatment, the necessary 6–8 week top-up, and a final healing period for the colour to soften naturally.

​

Will I experience scabbing?

​

Our tailored aftercare protocol is designed to prevent scabbing, so as long as you follow the instructions, you should enjoy smooth, flawless healing.

​

Do beauty products affect the pigment’s longevity?

​

Yes—products containing AHA, BHA, Retin A, or other anti-ageing ingredients can make pigment fade faster by increasing skin cell turnover. Titanium dioxide in foundation can also thin or fade pigment if applied directly over the treatment area.
