Cons Of Microblading Brows

Much like everything else in life, microblading too comes with its own set of risks. Since the main tool involved is a needle, make sure you only go to a clinic with a good reputation as dirty needles can give way to blood-borne diseases such as HIV, hepatitis B, and C virus (if used before on an infected person).

Another, risk to look out for is hyperpigmentation after the procedure is complete where you might experience extremely darkened eyebrows. However, you need to have patience and allow the color to seep, and within one or two weeks they will settle down and be on fleek.
