Healing

Here are the two most popular microblading post care methods:

You’ll clean your microblading every 15 minutes to 1 hour immediately following the procedure using cotton pads and water.

Dry Healing

Dry Healing predates Wet Healing. It’s how microblading artists used to have their clients heal, and how some still do today. Dry Healing is exactly how it sounds. You don’t get your microblading wet, ever. After your microblading appointment you do not touch your eyebrows. You let your eyebrows heal on their own with no assistance.

PROS: There’s nothing for you to do and no aftercare kit required.

CONS: You’ll have heavy scabbing during healing and you’ll lose more color.

Wet Healing

Wet healing is how most microblading artists have their client’s heal today. Your microblading artist will have you clean your eyebrows every 15 minutes to 1 hour following your appointment. Depending on your artist’s preference, you’ll do this for 1 to 3 days.

You’ll also be asked to clean your eyebrows morning and evening with a gentle, permanent makeup-approved cleanser and told to use an appropriate healing gel to keep your skin from drying out.

PROS: You’ll have no scabbing and your color will heal much more evenly.

CONS: You’ll have some work to do and an aftercare kit to keep on you.

Dry healing is still a common method even though wet healing has proven to have the most promising healed results. You can speak with your artist about their healing method and what they’d like from you when healing.
