Common FAQ - Questions and Answers
You will be very comfortable. I apply a topical numbing cream first and then use another anaesthetic during the treatment. You will find several artists now performing microblading, best to google 'eyebrow microblading near me' (then see their testimonials and years experience, if you want an amazing job).
What is this you my ask. Well... its a sensational way to resolve all your eyebrow issues once and for all for 12 months. This application provides a very natural finish, each little line a divine replica of your own natural hair and direction of growth. The technique gives you shape, height, arch and fullness. Remember with this procedure you can still see your skin in between hairs... if you would love a more made up brow or darker, then it may be better for you to consider Cosmetic Tattooing. Simply google Eyebrow Microblading near me to find local artists (remember if you want stunning perfect brows the first time, choose an artist with years of experience preferably).
When I apply permanent makeup onto a client I only ever want to enhance natural beauty, so no, it is not dramatically noticeable. ButI can guarantee that people will tell you time and time again you look so well!
When cosmetic tattooing or micro blading is performed beautifully by a professional, the result is very natural. Iam able to give back shape, symmetry, colour, lines and shading. The results really do make you look and feel younger and better about yourself.
Cosmetic Tattooing lasts anywhere from 3-5 years, at which time it starts to fade and lose its definition. At this stage you can have a ‘touch up’, where we redeposit the colour, possibly amend the shape (if we want to), and the cost decreases.
YES! In fact, I recommend doing just that! If you want all procedures performed I think it’s best to do it altogether, as this way there is just one healing time.
The aftercare pack I provide you with on the day is all you need for 4 days. No cleanser, moisturiser or makeup on the area for 4 days. If you get them wet, you pat them dry, if you are going to sweat, you pop a little cream on before hand. Its soooo easy (although the internet says otherwise i KNOW 🙁
This is an apprehension often heard by cosmetic tattooists. The solution is simple! You just draw in your area to be tattooed and Rachael performs her magic straight over the top!
Not at all! When first applied, the work will appear to be 30-40% thicker and darker for 4 days, after which it peels and the colour and look we have discussed is revealed.
Most definitely yes! In fact, I master in this. I have a beautiful range of blonde inks to chose from and I can use charcoal around the eyes. Blonde Tattooed Eyebrows are real and they can be magnificent. See here for the proof..

The consultation stage of our process is very important. Everyone is different, and I am very particular and conservative. By building a rapport I get to know you. We discuss your desired outcome in length to ensure you do love the end result.
This is a really important part of the process for you. Ring the tattooist, have a chat and ensure you can relate to them. I always encourage my ladies to come and meet me, in particular if they are quite apprehensive. It is quite reassuring to meet your tattooist and build a rapport together if you are concerned. See

This is a tricky question, as everyone has to start somewhere. I would suggest a more mature tattooist for a more mature woman though (a little more age identifiable). I have been Cosmetic Tattooing for over 14 years now and have been contracted to salons throughout Melbourne to perform their tattooing.
This is your face. Do not price shop. Cosmetic Tattooing is not something you want to play around with. I often say’GOOD BROWS AREN’T CHEAP AND CHEAP BROWS AREN’T GOOD. Dont be ignorant this is your face, travel if you need to, save up and pay for the best, and you will just love the results.
Feathering is a technique for tattooing eyebrows. It is very fine and mimics the fine hair stokes. Feathering is fantastic for eyebrows that are sparse or gappy. The results (when done well) are divine, this truly an art. Feather Eyebrow Tattoo Costs will vary, and the driver for this is the individual experience of each artist. I have been performing this procedure for 15 years so some would say I am dearer.... I would say a better investment (lol)
Because Microblading is just a tiny bit of pigment (to create each hair stroke), it fades quite quickly. This will differ for different skin types, so for an oily skin type the microblading will only last about 9 months but for most skin types you can expect 12 months before needing the annual 'touch up' to freshen up this colour ( i personally offer this at half price for my existing clients and a little dearer for new clients to my business).
Such a beautiful feminine procedure to have done, the perfect lips shape and colour will last (fair to say 2-3 years), in 2 years you will receive a reminder to have the colour re freshened before they fade too much. (at this stage the touch up is about half the initial price). This is also known as 'semi-permanent lip tattooing' .
When you arrive for this procedure I apply a numbing cream, this is amazing at removing the possible discomfort, numbing cream is also applied throughout the procedure to ensure absolute comfort for you.
The common misconception about this procedure is 1. It is so close to the eye can it damage it and 2. Its got to hurt as the skin is so thin. Good news ladies, again the numbing cream on this beautiful thin skin works a treat. There are not alot of experienced artists in this area at the moment so pick your artist wisely, so dont just google 'eyeliner tattooing near me' (you might need to travel for this one).
Microblading is not permanent, this is only a semi permanent procedure lasting about 12 months.
Sensational procedure! Every woman should have this done, no more daily struggles of applying makeup, having perfect colour around the eyes day in day out for 2 years. It will be one of the best things you ever do...it can be applied softly or more like a liquid line. Also known as 'upper eyeliner permanent makeup' (but remember its not permanent).
A normal tattoo is applied with a much more assertive pressure at a much deeper level in the skin. Our beautiful cosmetic tattoo is applied with a gentle little machine and only very small amount of pressure. A normal tattoo will last a lifetime and a cosmetic tattoo will only last a few year max hence the 'semi permanent' name.
Unfortunately this is so common and the main reason why ladies put off making themselves feel and look more amazing (while saving heaps of time and cranky moments). There is a way around this... choose "Experience".... choose someone who works with your age demographic and skin type often (they have usually been through all issues that can present). Mature skin is most difficult.... young skins are easy to work on. Ironically my main demographic is 40+ ladies, ( like I said I can tattoo younger ladies that's easy), my mature ladies just burst at the seams with gratification and satisfaction at the end of a procedure because I listen to what you have to say..
