Please reach out to your Specialist if you have any chronic skin conditions at least 48 prior to your appointment.
•Those with sensitive skin, chronic acne and/or rosacea may experience easy bleeding.
•Oily skin may cause the pigment to blur and heal to a different color. Microblading is not suited for oily skin types. Please schedule a consultation if you are unsure what to book.
•If you have skin with large pores, deep wrinkles, moles, scarring, bumps, piercings and generally raised skin, the overall look can appear uneven.
•Cosmetic tattoos are not suitable for sunburned skin.
•Those taking acne medications, like Accutane/Retin-A, within the last year, have an altered skin condition that will not heal well after the procedure. It’s very important that you wait 1 year before tattooing the skin.
•Those with medical conditions such as (but not limited to): autoimmune diseases, diabetes, thyroid issues, lupus, frontal fibrosing alopecia, bleeding disorders, heart conditions, keloid scarring, viral infections, or any other ongoing conditions, must obtain clearance from their doctor.

•Pregnant women and women that are breastfeeding are not eligible for permanent makeup.
•Those that are undergoing chemo or radiation therapy should avoid permanent make up procedures
•Trichotillomania (i.e., compulsive picking) can cause scar tissue in the skin to be prominent, which does not allow the color to heal properly. Please consult your doctor before booking and provide your artist with proper clearance before your appointment.
•Those with anemia and iron deficiency: Your body will absorb iron based pigments more quickly, which will result in poor pigment retention.
