Over recent years, microblading has become one of the most popular and well-known brow treatments in the semi-permanent makeup world.
However, we understand that getting your brows microbladed is a big decision for anyone. So it’s important to ensure that you do your research before and find the best place for you.
If you’re looking for microblading in Bristol, read on to find out what you should look out for to help you make an informed decision.
What is Microblading?
Microblading is a form of tattooing but is done with a blade. The hand tool tattooing method is a manual way of implanting pigment and creating fine hairstrokes.
This is done using a manual handpiece to implant fine hair strokes for a very natural effect. This effect is lovely for those with fine natural hairs or with areas of spareness.
There are several forms of microblading that can be achieved, depending on if you want a very natural look or with added shading to create extra depth.
Who is Microblading Suitable for?
Microblading is suitable for most people with normal to dry skin.
However it is NOT recommended for mature or very delicate skin, textured skins from wrinkles or extremely large pores, skins which are extremely pale, skins which have a very rosy/red tone i.e. extreme rosecia sufferers, extremely oily skin or very oily t-zone.
How to Choose the Best Place for Microblading in Bristol
Check Out the Reviews
Reviews are one of the absolute best ways to find reliable and unbiased information about any product or service.
You need to feel completely confident in your brow artist. And someone with an array of positive reviews with detailed feedback is one of the best ways to achieve that.
Here at Ella May PMA, we’re so proud to have over 40 5* reviews on Google which we think really pays testament to the work that we do.
Consider the Location
If you’re looking for microblading in Bristol, then of course location is a very important factor to consider.
Be sure that it’s somewhere that is easy to find and easily accessible. It could also be worth thinking about the type of environment you’d feel most comfortable in for your microblading procedure.
We are lucky enough to have our own beautiful private home salon. This means that throughout the entire microblading procedure you’ll be on your own with Ella. This helps a lot of our clients feel completely at ease. And some of them even enjoy a little nap when they visit!
Do They Have a Portfolio or Social Media?
Similar to reviews, a portfolio or social media account full of images of previous clients is one of the key ways to help you make the best decision when choosing a brow and permanent makeup artist.
Take a close look at their methods and of course the end result. At Ella May PMA, our Instagram account holds over 250 posts including information about our services and recent examples of our work.
Are They Experienced?
An experienced and reliable brow artist is extremely important when it comes to microblading.
Eyebrows can make such a dramatic change to your overall appearance. So it’s essential that you get them right!
Ask to know where they trained and be sure that they’ve had a wide range of previous clients. You can also tell how experienced someone is by their knowledge. And whether they provide correct advice around microblading and who it is suitable for.
We’re proud to say that Ella started her career in microblading with extensive training in Harley Street, London. This was with a top technician in the semi-permanent makeup industry.
