PROPER MICROBLADING IS AN ART FORM!

Microblading and permanent makeup is in high demand and unfortunately there are too many unskilled technicians out there. Levics Salon is one of the nation's premier destinations for permanent makeup and education. We have seen to many times the results of bad or incorrect microblading.

Let’s discuss first why exactly these bad microblading instances happen. Here are some of the most common reasons:

Incorrect Pigment Placement

This is the most common type of bad microblading. When pigment is placed too superficially, it can easily fade or disappear over time. In addition, incorrect pigment placement can also cause a blotchy and uneven final result.

Poor Technique

If your technician doesn’t have enough experience or uses an inappropriate blade, you can end up with a bad microblading experience. You might end up with too much or too little hair strokes, uneven pigment, and poor shape.

Incorrect Blade Angle

This issue is very common as well. The thing is not everyone knows that their blades need to be angled at 45 degrees in order for them to deliver the best results. If your technician isn’t using appropriate sharpening equipment or doesn’t know how to properly maintain and sharpen the blade, your results will suffer.

Color Mismatch

Let’s say you’re 4 weeks post-treatment and your eyebrows have healed well. Yet, you notice that the pigment isn’t what you expected at all—it’s either too light or too dark for your liking. Of course, you wouldn’t want to spend the next 1 to 3 years with eyebrows that don’t match your skin or hair color, would you?

Bad or Fake-looking Shape

Another common bad microblading experience is getting eyebrows that look so unnatural. This often happens when your desired shape or the one your artist is trying to achieve just doesn’t work for your face. Some get eyebrows with arches that are way too high or too low as compared to their natural shape. And some even get “cat whiskers” or too-thin eyebrows.
