Microblading is a pigmentation procedure that is very similar to permanent make-up and can be used as an alternative. Similar to a tattoo, color pigments are applied under the skin. In contrast to permanent make-up, where a pigmentation machine is used, microblading does not use a machine tool but is carried out manually using a "blade", a special hand needle. The method originally comes from Asia, but is now also very popular and in demand in Europe among both men and women.

Both microblading and permanent make-up are cosmetic tattooing methods.

The main difference between pigmentation is the technique used. Classic permanent make-up uses a pigmentation device. Whereas with microblading, the eyebrows are traced manually by the beautician using a blade pen, i.e. a pen with a blade attachment, or are finely carved into the skin.

• For people who are tired of putting on make-up all the time and want to save valuable time

• People who already work in the field of cosmetics or with the classic permanent make-up method and would like to further their education or specialize in this field
• Self-employed people with their own beauty salon who would like to offer their customers an additional service
• People who are looking to enter this field of work and want to gain a foothold quickly

Microblading is mainly used for the cosmetic treatment of, or tracing of, eyebrows. Pigmentation is carried out using a special pen known as a "tebori". A typical feature of this pen is the first needle fan with a row of very fine and small blades. The beautician then uses this pen to carve hair-thin lines into the skin by hand with light pressure. The shape and density can be individually adapted to the personal hair structure. The hair-like incisions are then filled in with the previously defined color pigments.

How long microblading lasts depends on various individual factors, such as the condition of the skin, the metabolism or the care of the eyebrows after treatment. It is generally assumed that microblading lasts between eight and 24 months. After this period, the pigmentation needs to be refreshed, i.e. re-stippled.
