Can You Get Your Eyebrows Waxed After Microblading?

Microblading

Posted by Jennifer Ngo at August 15th, 2022

If you’ve recently undergone a microblading treatment, it’s important to let your eyebrows heal before trying to make any alterations. After microblading, always wait at least one month before attempting a hair removal procedure of any kind, such as plucking or waxing. If you’d still like to trim your eyebrows after a microblading session, eyebrow threading is an ideal alternative instead of waxing. Regardless of the type of treatment, you need to let your brows heal completely before attempting any augmentation. However, there are a few reasons why eyebrow threading is a better/safer hair removal treatment after a microblading procedure.

When Can You Get Your Eyebrows Waxed?

So, can you get your eyebrows waxed after a microblading session? The answer is yes if you let your skin heal completely. If you want to remove any eyebrow hair, it should be done at least two weeks before your microblading procedure. It’s important to remember that microblading is a semi-permanent tattooing procedure, meaning that the outermost layer of the skin is broken; this requires a certain amount of time for healing, which can include some scabbing. We know it can be tough to wait, but you’ll need to hold off at least one month before altering your eyebrows after a microblading session. Your sensitive eyebrow skin needs time to heal fully! Waxing subjects your healing skin to chemicals, heat, and strain that can be damaging to eyebrow skin.

Is Eyebrow Threading the Better Alternative?

Generally speaking, eyebrow threading is a safer and more effective alternative to waxing. Unlike waxing, eyebrow threading is a completely natural form of hair removal; in fact, it’s considered the most gentle method of eyebrow treatment. Eyebrow threading is also a better alternative for people with sensitive skin since it’s solution-free. It’s important to allow your brows to heal after microblading, and you don’t want to risk getting an infection or opening up scabs for the sake of premature hair removal. The best thing to do is wait until your eyebrows have fully healed. However, if a month has passed and you still want to trim your eyebrows, eyebrow threading is the safest and gentlest option.

What Should You Expect?

Eyebrow threading is an ancient hair removal procedure practiced in parts of Asia for centuries. It involves a looped cotton thread repeatedly twisted around your hair follicles. A professional threading artist will proceed to gently remove the hair in the opposite direction that it’s growing. Lash artists are precise with eyebrow threading, leading to defined, stylish, and fabulous results.
