Microblading is fast becoming a must-have procedure, and with good reason: you get perfect eyebrows every day, without the effort or skill of applying makeup. With microblading, you can cut ten minutes a day or more out of the time you spend putting on and taking off makeup. And, like most permanent makeup procedures, microblading can last anywhere from 18 months to 5 years. But what happens when you don’t love the shape or color of your microbladed eyebrows? When you work with a permanent makeup professional, there are ways to undo or update your microblading results. At Adorn Permanent Cosmetics, a top microblading studio in Oakland, we specialize in updating previously microbladed eyebrows, to give you the perfect brow you’ve always wanted.
Eyebrow Trends for 2023
Microblading is a commitment, so you want to make sure the style you pick is something you will love for years. According to the Zoe Report, the full eyebrow look is here to stay. The “skinny brow,” the overplucked look many of us remember from the early 2000s, is not coming back any time soon. Social media makeup artists and celebrities often go for the extreme eyebrow trends, such as the glitter brow or the straight-across brow, most people want the best, most flattering version of their own natural brows, filled in for a youthful look and proportioned to suit their bone structure. That is great news for those of us who have committed to the fuller brow with microblading - this is a look and an investment you will not regret.
If you were not so lucky and your microbladed eyebrows are not helping you look and feel your best, we have good news for you, too. Although permanent makeup (otherwise known as semi-permanent makeup, micropigmentation, or makeup tattoo) is a long-term commitment, there are options for updating your look. You don’t have to be stuck with eyebrows you hate.
Common Reasons To Get An Eyebrow Correction
We like to remind our microblading clients that eyebrow microblading should be viewed as a permanent decision — at least one that will last for a few years. With that said, there are many situations when a microblading correction or even removal is needed.
The most common reasons we see clients for a correction for a previously microbladed eyebrow include:
Incorrect eyebrow shape
Poor color choice
Bad color retention
Misshapen or asymmetrical brows
Poor placement of brow tattoo
Unnatural looking results
Client simply changed their mind
Whatever the reason you need the eyebrow corrected, you have options. The last thing a professional makeup artist wants is for the client to feel stuck with a poor microblading job for years to come.
What To Do If You Are Not Happy With Microblading
Bad microblading happens. If you find that you are not happy with your microblading results, it might be because you had a poor experience with your technician. Whether they didn’t use the right color or didn’t do a good job of shaping your eyebrows to match your facial features, the end result might not be exactly what you expected.
To correct the eyebrow shape, your brows need to be re-mapped, re-drawn and then approved by you. If the color of the original microblading job was not ideal, we need to discuss how new and different pigment can be applied.
In the more extreme cases, pigment removal is needed. At Adorn, we offer Saline and Glycolic Acid removal methods. These methods work by carefully opening the skin at the site of the tattoo and using saline or glycolic acid to bond with the ink particles, removing the pigment in the same way it was originally implanted..During your consultation we will advise you on the right method for you.
