  • WHY MICROBLADING/NANO BROWS?

    Those who want to simplify their morning routine, active people on the go, who don’t want to worry about sweating off makeup while working out or swimming, or any person who struggles with getting that perfect shape.


    This is meant to enhance your brows and not totally replace them. Wake up and go but if wanting to add a little makeup for a razzle dazzle night on the town, you'll have a shape to follow!

    Masks are required for the artist as I work closely to your face. All items are new, pre-packaged, and have passed inspection.


    Minimize infection risks with proper care & following of the detailed after-blading instructions/kit we provide to all our clients. 


    Lisa Marie is trained as well as licensed on the dangers of blood-borne pathogens and renews her licenses annually as required by the State of Florida.


    A consent form is required to be filled out upon booking brow appointment.

  • HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?

    Cosmetic tattooing is designed to fade over time. 


    Many factors, such as skin type, medications, lifestyle, age, and pigment color all affect the longevity of the tattoo.


    The sun (and even tanning beds) can affect the rate at which the pigments are broken down. 


    Follow the aftercare instructinons provided and maintain scheduled touch-ups (as needed)


    Final results vary and cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of how your skin will heal. Your touch-up appointment is recommended as we can assess your pigment retention and make changes where necessary.

  • WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT AFTER MY SESSION?

    • Slight swelling, redness and your brows will appear sharp, dark, and bold immediately after the procedure and possibly for the next two days after. 

    • It is normal to lose approximately 1/3 of the color during the healing process as it is filtered throughout the skin. If you wish to go darker for your Brow Refresher, please advise Lisa Marie at the time of your next appointment. 

    • After the initial procedure, the color will appear to be a shade or two, too dark because naturally blood has risen to the surface and the pigment is sitting on top of our dermal layer. In 6-8 days, it will appear very light, in some cases it may look as if the strokes have completely disappeared. Around 10-12 days the color will start to resurface and show more, once all the dead skin exfoliates itself off your brow area and you should be able to see your final color between weeks 3 and 4. 

    • Your brows will appear softer and less harsh once completely healed because the color has filtered from the dermal layer of the skin to the epidermis.

    • Please be patient throughout your healing period. Healing takes up to 30 days. 

    • During your optional, (but highly recommended), Brow Refresher appointment, more areas can be filled in and incomplete hair strokes can be refreshed to make your eyebrows look fuller and more 3D like. 


    Your brows will be approximately 20% to 25% darker, bolder, and thicker in width than they will be, once they are healed. Your skin will appear red under the pigment which causes the true color of the pigment to appear darker and warmer in tone. You may be experiencing tenderness and some minor swelling; this will subside by the following day. Natural exfoliation, which will begin in the next few days, will cause excess pigment surrounding the eyebrow area to scab and flake away. Your brows will then appear more narrow and softer.


    In order for your new brows to heal properly (and look their best) these Pre & Post Care Instructions found below are of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE! Pre-Care instructions are designed to limit bleeding and skin sensitivities during the service. Excessing bleeding during the procedure can dilute the pigment color and lead to poor results. 


  • DOES PERMANENT MAKE UP HURT?

    Topical 5% Lidocaine (Zensa)  is used to make you comfortable during your session, however pain tolerance varies from client to client. 


    A secondary numbing (Bowler Esthetics Comfort Candy)will be applied.


    Having the procedure done during your menstrual cycle may increase your sensitivity.

  • I HAVE OLD PMU, CAN THEY BE TOUCHED UP?

    Required: Anyone who has had their brows tattooed previously by another artist must text me a picture of their brows (front, each side and no filters/make up) before booking an appointment. 


    This way we can discuss price, your options and schedule sufficient time. 


    Any client coming to me from a different artist is considered a new client, with new client pricing.
