What is the Combination Brow Process?
Your brows will fade over time.
Combination Brows consists of Microblading and Microshading. The Strokes can be achieved through the traditional method of using the handheld microblading tool or the machine which is Nanoblading. The treatment itself consists of two stages, and it’s important to be aware of both of these steps before deciding to go ahead with the treatment.
- The first stage takes place during the initial procedure. During this time, Shari Saint at Bare Fruit Sugaring & Brows in Westbury, will work with you to create the perfect shape and color for your brows. This step will take 2 hours or less.
- After the initial treatment, the healing process begins. This can take between four and eight weeks, depending on your body’s natural healing process. During this time, it’s important to follow your artist’s aftercare instructions to ensure that your eyebrows heal correctly.
- The second stage of the process is the perfecting session, which takes place 6-9 weeks after the initial treatment. This session is crucial for completing the microblading process and ensuring that your brows look perfect.
It’s important to remember that everyone heals differently, and there’s no guaranteed whether you’ll need the perfecting session or not. However, most clients do benefit from this session, and it’s priced separately to save you upfront costs.
So, if you’re considering microblading, remember that it’s a process – but it’s worth it for long-lasting, beautiful eyebrows. Trust the process, and you won’t be disappointed!

How do I know when I need an annual touch up?
Microblading is an incredible technique that creates beautifully natural-looking eyebrows.
The results are long-lasting but touch-ups may be necessary over time. In the absence of a touch-up, the pigment may fade or lose its shape. Keep in mind that everyone’s skin is different so the exact timing of when a touch-up is needed can vary person to person.
However, if you are considering applying makeup to re-define the shape of your eyebrows, or perhaps you notice your eyebrow color is fading, it’s safe to say you’re due for a touch-up. To maintain the color and shape of your eyebrows, it’s recommended to receive an annual touch-up preferably after 12 months.
Avoid potential issues that may come up if you wait too long between touch-ups. Stay on top of your microblading care with regular touch-ups for the most beautiful and long-lasting results.
Do I need to avoid any activities afterwards?
To maintain perfectly shaped and pigmented brows, avoid excessive sweating, refrain from touching or itching, and keep hair away from your brows to avoid infection. Check this page for more info.
Can I get Microblading while pregnant or breastfeeding?
For the safety of our clients, we advise against receiving microblading or tattoos during pregnancy or breastfeeding. These procedures carry a risk of infection and may harm both the mother and baby. Lidocaine used in anesthetic can have adverse effects on the baby as well. The health and safety of our clients are our top priority. We hope you understand our concern and prioritize your health and your baby’s during this time.
What the healing time?
Taking care of your new eyebrows is important. Healing time varies based on age, lifestyle and skin type. Initial healing takes 7-10 days, during which it is safe to resume daily activities such as working out and wearing makeup. Complete healing takes 4-6 weeks and then touch-up appointments can be booked. Please monitor the healing process and follow the after care for success.
Can Microblading Hide my Eyebrow scars?
When dealing with scar coverage, consider the skin texture. Microblading may not work for you if it’s raised or discolored. There are other options like Nano Brows and Ombre, which provide a more natural look and fuller coverage respectively. Explore your options to find the suitable solution that suits your particular situation for best results.
When can I get botox?
To get the best results for Botox and microblading, allow your brows to settle for two weeks before Botox and one week after to prevent infection. If you get Botox before microblading, it may affect the placement of your brows. Trust our recommendations to avoid undesirable outcomes. Consult with Shari for the best course of action for your situation.
How long can I expect it to last?
Microblading is a popular technique for enhancing eyebrows. However, like any tattoo, the results gradually fade over time. To maintain their appearance, it’s recommended to book annual color boosts. Research shows it can take up to 5 years for microblading to completely fade if left untouched. With color boosts every 12 to 18 months, you can prolong the look of your brows and achieve your desired look for a longer time. Don’t wait until they completely fade, book your annual color boosts to keep your brows looking their best!
Do I need to take off of work?
You do not need to take time off from work, but you should be mindful of the changes in your daily skin care routine. It is important to remember that you will experience some initial scabbing or peeling during the first week of the healing process, but do not fret! If you are concerned about attending an important event during this time, we recommend rescheduling or booking well in advance to alleviate any feelings of insecurity while your brows heal. Remember that taking these necessary precautions will ensure that you have the best possible results from your microblading procedure.
Can I wear Makeup after?
Be careful when applying makeup on wounds or after a microblading procedure. Dirty brushes or expired products can cause infection and compromise healing. It’s best to let freshly microbladed eyebrows heal without interference. Dont apply makeup, we want to ensure positive outcomes for your skin.
Is Microblading Safe?
Yes Microblading is Safe BUT most of the risks come from Untrained or unlicensed artists, use of non-sterile instruments, and improper aftercare by the client can cause risks and negative outcomes with PMU.
With Shari, you can have peace of mind knowing that your safety is a top priority. Choose Shari Saint for safe and high-quality Microblading results.

I have sensitive skin, now what?
However, we do want to disclose that there are potential side effects that you may experience. Firstly, it’s important to note that while you can still receive the procedure, your skin may be red and this redness could last for up to a week. On top of that, your healing process might take longer than others and you may even encounter swelling on the day of the microblading treatment. We also want to inform you that you may experience some bleeding during the procedure, and it could potentially cause you to feel some discomfort. Based on these potential risks, we would also like to introduce you to an alternate method known as Nano brows. This offers a more natural look which is less invasive, and could be a great solution.
