What Makes Our Microblading Perfect for Glen Iris Residents

We’ve all seen those blocky, obviously tattooed eyebrows from years past, but don’t let that put you off, as our modern microblading and powder brows are nothing like that. Our latest techniques create individual hair strokes or soft shading that blends seamlessly with your existing brows, giving you the natural fullness you’ve always wanted.

Barbara’s microblading and powder brows experience spans continents. After training in Melbourne, she spent a decade refining her craft across Italy’s medical facilities and beauty spas. Each appointment begins with an in-depth consultation where we:

  • Map your ideal brow shape based on your facial structure
  • Choose the perfect colour to complement your skin tone and hair
  • Draw your new brows with regular makeup first (so no surprises!)
  • Use prescription-grade numbing cream for maximum comfort
  • Create hair-like strokes or powder effect with our precision German equipment


The entire process takes about two hours, and most clients are amazed at how relaxed they feel throughout. Your cosmetic tattoo includes a complimentary touch-up session 4-6 weeks later to perfect your results.

The Microblading Process: From Consultation to Perfect Brows

Understanding what happens during your microblading appointment may help ease any nerves you have. Here’s exactly what clients can expect when they visit our clinic for microblading near Glen Iris:

Initial Consultation and Design

We start by discussing your ideal brow shape and examining your natural hair growth patterns. Barbara then uses professional makeup to draw your new eyebrows, allowing you to see and approve the design before any permanent makeup application begins. This is to make sure you’re completely happy with the shape and thickness.

The Microblading Procedure

We apply prescription-grade numbing cream before and during the procedure to keep you comfortable. Once the design is established, a specialised microblading tool is used to create ultra-fine hair strokes in the superficial layers of your skin. The entire procedure takes approximately two hours, with most clients surprised at how tolerable and relaxing they find the experience.

How Do You Care for Microbladed Eyebrows?

The brow recovery process is straightforward but crucial for achieving peak results. For the first week, you’ll need to:

  • Keep the area dry, avoiding water on the eyebrows
  • Apply the provided aftercare balm 4-5 times daily
  • Avoid touching or picking at the healing skin
  • Skip makeup on the brow area
  • Stay out of direct sunlight and avoid swimming and saunas


Your eyebrows will appear darker initially, then lighten to their perfect shade within 7-10 days. The complete healing process takes about four to six weeks, after which you’ll return for your complimentary touch-up session.

Frequently Asked Questions About Microblading

How long does microblading last?

Your microbladed eyebrows typically last 1-3 years, depending on your skin type and lifestyle. Oily skin tends to fade faster, while normal to dry skin holds pigment longer. Regular touch-ups keep your brows looking fresh and defined.

Most people are excellent candidates for microblading. However, it’s not recommended if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain skin conditions, blood disorders or undergoing chemotherapy. We’ll discuss your medical history during your consultation to make sure it’s right for you.

Traditional eyebrow tattoos use a machine to deposit ink deep into the skin, creating a solid, flat appearance. Microblading uses a manual tool to create hair-like strokes in the upper skin layers, resulting in a natural-looking dimension and texture that mimics real eyebrow hairs.
