FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Microblading?

Microblading is one of the fastest growing trends in the beauty industry as we speak! This technique involves a manual blade made up of several needles that is used to insert semi-permanent tattoo ink just below the epidermis. It is done to create realistic eyebrow hair-srokes to fill in, shape or reconstruct eyebrows.

What is the difference between Microblading and Micropigmentation?

The main difference is that Microblading is done manually with a blade to create small hairtrokes, while Micropigmentation uses a machine to help deposit ink deeper into the skin. This is why microblading is less permanent, because it is only in the epidermis layer, and micropigmentation reaches the dermal layer. Machine work will always lay more pigment as it is stronger, darker and bolder.

Do your procedures hurt to have done?

The procedures here at Beauty Ink are relatively painless. Everyone is unique when it comes to different forms of tattooing on different parts of the face and body. When Kati performs microblading, due to it's unique and manual technique, she does not use numbing gel for the first pass. This is because she likes to avoid compromising the skin, and to keep it clean and taut to start off her blading. Once the skin is opened up, numbing is applied and the remaining time of the procedure is painless! When Kati performs micropigmentation, she always provides a pre-numb anesthetic as well as numbing throughout the procedure as these techniques are deeper into the skin.

How long do your procedures typically last?

Permanent makeup and it's longevity range from client to client. There are many factors that go into healing a tattoo and it's proper care over the years. Microblading tends to be the most semi permanent form of tattooing, sitting at a minimum of 6 months to 1-3 years. Micropigmentation can last anywhere from 3-5 years depending on the client and this is when they return for a color boost session with these techniques. Once your tattoos start to fade out is when you want to come back to Beauty Ink for a color boost touch-up session!

How do I know what brow or lip is best for me?

Kati is an expert at creating what permanent makeup style is best for her clients. She uses many different techniques, measurements and guidelines on each unique person to provide the best most realistic permanent makeup for their face. "A good brow or lip should always catch someone's eye and think, "Is that real? It look's so natural!" -Kati

Does Microblading or Micropigmentation work on all skin types?

This is where permanent makeup can be challenging. The skin is not only the largest organ of the body, but it is the most unique genetic makeup of a human being. When we talk about skin we have different types, tones, textures, pore sizes, ethnicities, etc. This is why choosing an artist with proper education is important. Microblading is not recommended on those who struggle with oily skin, thin skin, or larger pores as the strokes will not heal "crisp" enough, or there is too much trauma to the area. Micropigmentation is always recommended as this technique is suitable for almost anyone, including those with minor skin conditions.

What is the expected downtime for permanent makeup?

The average downtime and healing for permanent makeup is similar to that of a tattoo. This process takes around 7-10 days. A tattoo needs natural and free healing with a little bit of TLC during this time frame. Aftercare is VERY important to the appearance and longevity of your new tattoo. Outside of daily rinses, you will want to avoid activities that involve any water, oil, sweat or heat. You will only use what is directed by Kati to care for the tattoo. Here are a few things to keep in mind before scheduling your appointment: 


NO makeup, lotions, oils, creams, etc. in the tattoo area 

aside from what is given to you

NO facials, peels, acids, hair removal, Botox treatments for 2 weeks

NO workouts and/or sweating until healed

NO indoor/outdoor sun exposure for 2 weeks

Alcohol/Smoking is OK post procedure, water intake is better for faster healing. 

*You may shower and wash your face, just be cautious of the tattoo area.

You will be given more information post procedure by Kati on proper aftercare including instructions and products to ensure perfect healing. If these instructions are not followed strictly and properly, results may vary.

Who is NOT a suitable candidate for your procedures?

Unfortunately, there are times when there is a client that is NOT a suitable candidate for permanent makeup. Otherwise known as a contraindication, when a condition or factor that serves as a reason to withhold a certain medical treatment, due to the harm that it would cause the patient.

Do you offer corrections?

When it comes to correcting other artist’s work, it can be challenging to get a sufficient healed result. It depends on the current state of the permanent makeup if Kati is able to do a “Cover up” tattoo. If it is faded/light enough, in a proper shape, no dark/discolored/muddy strokes, then you may book a consultation to potentially proceed with a procedure. If your permanent makeup reflects any of the factors above, you may contact us for routes on removal options. 

A PERSONAL NOTE FROM KATI:

Ladies and gentlemen! 

With the permanent makeup industry increasing at an exponential rate, along comes many untrained artists out there with lack of education when it comes to proper microblading/tattooing. Keep in mind this is your face, and that should make your decision on choosing an artist that much more important! Remember, good tattoos aren‘t cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good!
