I got my eyebrows microbladed last year and this is what I've learned since then:
microbladed my brows, giving me the arches I'd always wanted. We've been in the honeymoon-phase ever since.But, as in any relationship, I've learned a thing or two—both good and bad—about my microbladed brows during our time together. Ahead, the totally-honest answers to the microblading questions I'm asked most often, including how long microblading really lasts...Microblading is the process of using a teeny-tiny blade to semi-permanently deposit pigment underneath the skin.
The end result is meant to be incredibly natural-looking—as if you just so happened to be born with full, shapely brows, no pomade or pencil required.How long does microblading last? It's tough to make a blanket statement here. Most pros say your faux hairs will be visible for up to three years, but they'll lose their "crispness" and thus require a touch-up anywhere between seven months to a year post-treatment. "There are a lot of factors that contribute, including sun exposure and your skincare routine," says Piret. "If you’re a big exfoliator [which causes skin cells to turn over more quickly], that will make them fade faster, for example.
I, for one, am a big exfoliator. That said, I only started to notice fading about ten months after the initial procedure. I plan to see Piret for a touch up every year or so.I won't sugar-coat it: The day after I microbladed my eyebrows, things were a little rough. As expected, each individual "hair" scabbed over, which looked just as glamorous as it sounds. But just 72 hours later, it was business as usual.
