Just like you can get laser hair removal instead of the dreaded monthly wax, microblading offers a semi-permanent solution for perfect brows.

Microblading is a type of semi-permanent tattoo which creates the look of perfect brows that won’t wear off in a few weeks like a tint.

If done well, your brows should be indistinguishable from the real thing and should last anything from one to three years depending on your skin type, so choosing a reputable microblading practitioner is very important.

But with so much choice out there it can be hard to know where to start, a quick search on the booking platform Treatwell pulled up a whopping 332 microblading venues in London alone.

Whether you’re thinking microblading, microshading, or powder brows, keep scrolling for our guide to the best salons in London for fuller and more defined brows.

How to choose a salon for microblading

The first thing to look at when deciding on a practitioner for microblading is the artists portfolio. As a minimum you would want to see five or six fully healed brows.

The most important thing is to ensure you’re looking at pictures of fully healed brows that were taken three to four weeks after the treatment.

It’s easy to fall into the trap of looking at pictures taken immediately after the treatment when the brows are a lovely shade of brown but you need to ensure the brows won’t heal red and will also hold the colour.

Always remember to schedule a consultation prior to the treatment itself (it’s usually offered free), this will help determine if the treatment is suitable with your skin type, what treatment would work best for you.

What’s the difference between microblading and microshading?

Microblading is a type of stroke effect semi-permanent tattoo used on the brows, giving a fuller and lifted brow effect.

Microshading combines both microblading and shading, it uses a blade for the strokes and a 1-point needle for the shading. It is recommended over microblading if you have an oily t-zone, for individuals with medium to darker skin tone or if your brows are very thin with little to know brow hairs.

What are powder brows and ombre brows?

Powder brows, also known as ombre brows, are a slightly newer semi-permanent brow technique. They are perfect for you if you’re looking for a fuller filled in look rather than brush strokes.

Powder brows are also recommended for individuals with who have an oily t-zone with medium to thicker hair as it typically lasts longer than microblading alone.
