Your Dream Brows, Simplified
Wake up every day with brows that feel effortless. No more rushing to fill them in, no more guessing at shapes — just natural, balanced brows designed specifically for you.
I specialize in microblading in Seattle, enhancing your natural beauty through a combination of precise, hair-like strokes and subtle shading when needed. My job is to study your brows, your skin, and your face shape to design results that fit you. Every appointment is tailored with expert hands, so you can let go of the hard decisions and trust the process.
✨ You don’t need to know the difference between techniques, all you need to know is you’ll leave with brows that look natural, polished, and uniquely yours.
The Brow Experience
Every step of your brow journey is guided by my expertise and designed to simplify your routine.
-
Initial Session | $450 +tax
Required for all new clients, or if it’s been more than 48 months since your last appointment. This is where I design your brows, create your base, and start your transformation.
-
Perfecting Session | $150 +tax
Scheduled 6–12 weeks after your initial session. Healing looks different for everyone, so this appointment allows me to assess retention, make adjustments, and ensure everything is exactly right. We will pre-book you for your perfecting session at your initial session appointment.
-
Annual Refreshers | $300 +tax
On average, most clients return within 18–24 months of their last session. Results vary depending on age, skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle. Brows need to be at least 50% faded before a refresher can be done.
✨ A 50% nonrefundable retainer is required to book all initial sessions and refreshers. Once your appointment request is submitted, an invoice will be sent from Olive & Ember to secure your booking.
Pre-Care: Setting Yourself Up for Success
Following these steps ensures the best healed results:
-
Eat at least 2 hours before your appointment and stay hydrated
-
Avoid blood thinners, painkillers, and aspirin for 48 hours before
-
No alcohol for 24 hours before
-
Limit caffeine 24 hours before (do not exceed 100mg of caffeine/one cup the day of your appointment)
-
No heavy exercise 24 hours before
-
Avoid sun exposure and tanning beds for 2 weeks prior
-
No chemical peels, laser treatments, or microdermabrasion for at least 4 weeks prior
-
Do not come with sunburned or flaring skin around the brows
-
Botox or fillers near the brows must be done at least 2 weeks prior
-
Let your natural brows grow out — please avoid waxing or threading. The more natural brow hair I have to work with, the better I can create your perfect, natural shape.
💡 Tip: Wash your hair the morning of your appointment so you don’t have to worry about getting brows wet in the shower for the next few days.
Aftercare Basics
You’ll receive a full aftercare kit at your appointment. Everything you need will be provided, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.
Daily Routine (First 10 Days)
-
Wash brows twice daily (morning + night) following the steps I’ll show you at your appointment
-
Apply the provided healing balm after each wash
Important Rules
-
No heavy sweating, swimming, saunas, or hot tubs for 10 days
-
No getting brows wet except during your washes
-
No makeup, skincare products, shampoo, or conditioner on brows for 14 days
-
No direct sun or tanning beds for 14 days
-
Do not pick or scratch at flakes or scabs
Healing takes about 10 days. Your brows will go through stages of darkening, flaking, and softening into their final look. At your perfecting session, I’ll make adjustments so everything is exactly right.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does microblading hurt?
Most clients are surprised at how comfortable the process is. I use professional-grade numbing products, and many clients even fall asleep during their session. With five years of experience, I’ve mastered the correct depth for microblading strokes and shading, which helps prevent pain.
How long do results last?
Results last 1–3 years, though most clients return within 18–24 months for an annual refresher. Longevity depends on age, skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle.
What if I’ve had my brows tattooed before?
Not all previously tattooed brows are good candidates for microblading. Please text me clear photos of your brows makeup-free and in natural lighting. From there, I’ll give you my professional opinion. In some cases, laser tattoo removal may be needed before booking.
Will my brows look too dark?
Brows look darker right after treatment, but this softens as they heal. At your initial session, I always start conservatively — we can add more shading or go darker at your perfecting session. It’s always better to add because we can't remove.
What about brow shape?
During your appointment, I map and measure your brows to flow with your natural hair growth and face shape. Mapping is the longest part of your session because I don’t rush this step — it’s my stencil, and it sets the foundation for everything.
Why can’t I have caffeine or alcohol before my session?
Both thin the blood, which causes excessive bleeding. This makes it harder for pigment to implant and can lead to poor retention or an ashy result. The best healed brows start with the best working surface.
Why can’t I work out the day of or right after?
Working out increases blood flow, which causes more bleeding during the procedure. Post-appointment, heavy sweating (salt + water) pushes pigment out of the skin. Since this is an investment on your face, you’ll want the best possible retention.
