Ellebrow Microblading & Permanent Makeup Studio NYC

Strap In, Beauties! It's Time to Navigate the Ups, Downs, and Loop-the-Loops of the Microblading Healing Journey



Hello, gorgeous NYC beauty enthusiasts! If you're here, you've probably heard about microblading, the magic trick that turns sparse brows into lush, 'woke up like this' masterpieces. But hold the phone! Before you dive in, let's talk about the microblading healing process. It's a bit of a roller coaster, but we promise the ride is worth it!


First Stop: Hello, Bold Brows!

Right after your microblading session, your brows will look straight out of a beauty magazine - bold, dark, and daring. You might be tempted to click a thousand selfies and make all your friends jealous, but remember, this is just the first stop on the ride. Your brows will lighten up during the healing process, so don't get too attached!


The Itchy Phase: Resist the Urge!

Next up, you might experience some itchiness as your brows start healing. Picture this: You're on a hot date, everything's going smooth, and suddenly, your brows decide to do the cha-cha. Resist the urge to scratch! Keep a cool head, and remember that this itchy phase is a good sign your skin is healing.


The Vanishing Act: Now You See Me...

Then comes the magic trick. Your brows might begin to lighten, and some of the strokes may seem to disappear entirely. Hold your gasps, ladies! This is just your new skin forming over the pigment, creating an illusion of faded brows. Your beautiful strokes haven't gone anywhere, promise!


... And Now You Don’t

Just when you thought the ride was over, your brows might go through a phase where they look patchy or uneven. Before you panic and start rethinking all your life decisions, take a deep breath! This is perfectly normal. Your brows are just playing hide-and-seek with you. As the skin continues to heal, the pigment will resurface, revealing your stunning brows once again.


Last Stop: Welcome Back, Beautiful

About four to six weeks after your initial session, you've reached the last stop on this roller coaster ride. Your brows will have healed completely, and the final color will have set in. This is the moment you've been waiting for - you now have the perfect brows you always dreamed of!


Time for a Touch-Up?

And just when you think the journey's over, we pull you back in. At this point, you will need a touch-up to perfect the shape and fill in any areas that may have healed lighter. So, buckle up for a mini-roller coaster ride!


Remember, Beauty is a Process

So, there you have it, the microblading healing process in all its glory. It's a journey, a thrilling ride, with twists and turns that eventually lead to fabulous brows. And isn't that what being a beauty enthusiast is all about? So, if you're ready to embrace the process and come out the other side flaunting fantastic brows, book your microblading appointment at our NYC location today!
