What Is Microblading?
Microblading is a form of permanent make-up designed to create soft, natural-looking hair strokes throughout the brows. Using a precise manual technique, pigment is implanted into the skin to enhance the shape, fullness and definition of your natural brows.
At Features Beauty, microblading is performed by Yasmin Dyson, who has over a decade of experience within the brow industry.
What Makes Yasmin’s Approach Different?
Yasmin is known for her signature approach of working with your natural brow hair and growth pattern, rather than creating an overly structured or heavily “drawn on” brow shape.
Every set of brows is customised to the individual to create a “your brows, but better” result that enhances your natural features whilst still looking soft and wearable day-to-day.
The focus is always on creating soft, timeless healed results. Careful attention is paid to placement, spacing and overall brow flow to ensure the brows heal naturally and maintain dimension over time, avoiding an overly heavy or solid appearance once healed.
The Micro Fine Brow Technique
Yasmin Dyson also offers the Micro Fine Brow technique, which is designed for clients wanting the most subtle enhancement possible.
This technique focuses on adding individual hair strokes only where needed, rather than rebuilding the entire brow.
It is perfect for clients who already have a good natural brow shape but want to fill small gaps, improve symmetry or add slight definition whilst keeping the brows looking incredibly soft and natural.
Who Is Microblading Suitable For?
Microblading is ideal for clients who:
- Have sparse or uneven brows
- Have overplucked brows that struggle to grow back
- Want more definition and shape
- Spend time filling in their brows daily
- Prefer a soft, natural makeup look
- Want low-maintenance brows
A consultation is required before booking to assess your skin type, existing brow shape, lifestyle and desired healed result.
How Does Microblading Work?
Using a specialist hand tool, fine hair-like strokes are created within the brow area to mimic natural brow hairs. Pigment is then implanted into the skin to build fullness and definition whilst still maintaining a realistic finish.
A bespoke brow mapping process is carried out before treatment begins to ensure the shape complements your face and natural features.
What Are The Benefits Of Microblading?
Benefits of microblading include:
- Fuller-looking brows
- Improved symmetry
- Enhanced definition
- Natural-looking results
- Reduced need for daily brow makeup
- Long-lasting results
- Brows tailored specifically to your face and natural hair pattern
What Should I Expect During The Appointment?
Your appointment will begin with a detailed consultation and brow mapping process where shape, colour and desired outcome are discussed thoroughly before treatment starts.
A topical numbing cream is used to keep you comfortable throughout the procedure. Most clients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful.
Immediately after treatment, the brows will appear darker and more defined. As the healing process progresses, the colour will soften and settle into a more natural finish.
A perfecting top-up appointment is required at 6-12 weeks.
How Long Does Microblading Last?
Microblading is considered a long-term permanent make-up treatment, however the colour will naturally soften over time.
To maintain the shape, colour and overall result, a maintenance top-up is usually recommended every 12–18 months. This can vary depending on factors such as:
- Skin type
- Lifestyle
- Sun exposure
- Skincare products used
- Overall pigment retention
Clients with oilier skin types, active lifestyles or frequent sun exposure may find they require more regular colour refresh appointments.
How Should I Prepare For My Appointment?
Before your appointment, we recommend:
- Avoiding alcohol for 24 hours before treatment
- Avoiding caffeine on the day of treatment
- Avoiding retinol, acids or active skincare around the brow area beforehand
- Not waxing, tinting or laminating the brows 7 days prior
- Arriving with your usual brow makeup if you regularly wear it
What Is The Aftercare?
Following your aftercare correctly is essential for the best healed results.
After treatment, you will receive full aftercare guidance, however general aftercare includes:
- Keeping the brows clean and dry for 2 weeks
- Avoiding excessive sweating, swimming and saunas during healing
- Avoiding picking or scratching the area
- Avoiding makeup directly on the brows during the initial healing stage
- Applying aftercare products exactly as advised
Healing typically takes around 4–6 weeks in total.
Consultation & Finance Options
A consultation is required before booking to assess your suitability for treatment and discuss your desired healed result in detail.
