Microblading is a trend that is fast becoming popular among women including men. The idea of drawing brows every time for make-up is tiresome for some people; others may want the procedure done to replace their loss of brows due to certain health or skin conditions they have, hence we will look at the benefit of microblading before and after. Microblading involves using a tool to make tiny cuts on the skin surface (on the brows), pigments that look like hair are inserted into the skin through these cuts giving the brows a look of full hair.
This procedure is semi permanent, meaning that it can last for a long time maybe 2 years or even 3. It will take days to heal after which you can comfortably rock your perfect eyebrows.

BAD MICROBLADING BEFORE AND AFTER
Not all microblading eyebrows come out beautiful, some may look uneven, thick and may not improve the look of the face. Before the procedure, you may have neatly arched brows but no hair or patches on the brows, so your aim of getting microblading will be to make the brows fuller.

NATURAL MICROBLADING BEFORE AND AFTER
Before getting microblading, there are some things you should know such as the following:
i. How long your microblading eyebrows last depends on your skin type: Microblading can be done by anyone but it may not really last for some skin type especially oily skin. This is because the sebum will produce more oil that will push out the pigments faster than a normal skin would. That is why this post microblading before and after is recommended for all.
ii. You will feel mild pain: Numbing ointment will be applied on the eyebrows before the cuts are made but you will still feel pain after the effects of the cream has worn off. If anyone tells you there is zero pain, it may not be true because a tool will be used to make cuts on the skin surface, you can compare the pain you feel as that of cat scratches.
iii. Your brows will get darker and thicker after few days: Do not expect your brows to have the perfect shape after the microblading. At some point during the healing period, your brows will become darker, some people claim they feel their artist had done a bad job or that they wasted their money on microblading. The darkening is normal and should be expected.
iv. You are not to wet your brows for 7 to 10 days after microblading: You will have to look for a means of bathing without pouring water on your brows. This is during your healing process and you will feel like using wet cloth to clean the scabs when they come. You should not do any of these, make sure your brows are dry.
v. Microblading is temporary: There is a reason why they are called semi permanent, this is because they last for a little long time but not long enough to be called permanent. Typical microblading lasts 1-2 years but you should often go for touch-ups to keep them fresh and beautiful. With good touch-ups, they can last for even a year.
CONCLUSION
