​
NEW BOOKINGS
Please feel free to contact me on messenger, by email info@naturalinkspm.com or by phone at 0879600937 if you would like to book any treatment. If I am working with a client, I won't answer the phone, once I am available, I will call you back as soon as possible. A non-refundable 50 euro deposit will be required when booking an appointment online or in the salon. This deposit will go towards the amount that's due on the day of the appointment. The remaining balance will be paid by cash or card on the day. Cancelling your appointment for any reason will result in losing your deposit. Please book wisely. You must give us 48 hours notice for rescheduling or cancellations. If you will cancel in less than 48 hours you will have to pay 30% of the treatment fee. If no-show you will pay 50% of the service charge.
You must arrive no later than 15 minutes from your scheduled time, after that your appointment will be cancelled and your deposit will be lost.
I have the right to refuse the service if the client is not a good candidate for micropigmentation. I always recommend booking a free consultation and patch test to minimise allergic reaction risk and to chat about future treatments in person.
​
NATURAL INK SPM POLICY
-You must be 18+ to get this procedure done even with parental consent.
-No guests allowed due to cross-contamination and interruption. Please be respectful that the technician must focus on the micropigmentation procedure.
You must inform about any previous permanent make up treatments in the past, before making a new booking. Not all of them can be corrected especially if they were done in another salon. Some of the previous jobs need to be removed first with a remover or laser session, before getting a new one. Dark, oversaturated permanent make up procedures are non-correctable. Please send a clear photo of the area through the messenger business page or SMS 087 960 0937.
-The results can vary depending on their skin type, skin undertone, blood type, lifestyle. It is also important how often do you tan if you use Spf cream daily especially during the summer, exfoliating products, retinol or AHA's. Skin type is very important when getting this treatment done. Permanent makeup on dry or normal skin will look crisper, and retention will be much better than on oily skin. Oily skin produces more sebum and the pigment fades faster.
Permanent makeup is a multi-step process. To achieve the best results you will be required to return for at least one control procedure 4-6 weeks after the initial application. The colour intensity will be darker immediately after the procedure and will become softer as the skin heals. The healing process can take around 14 to 30 days.

WHY THE SKIN TYPES MATTER FOR MICROBLADING/HAIRSTROKES METHODS?
Your skin type is important when it comes to microblading. It plays a major role in how your microblading will heal and the rate at which it will fade. When referring to “skin type” for microblading, we are talking about how dry and/or oily your eyebrow area is and your pore size. There are four common skin types that you can have: normal, dry, oily, or combination. Your skin’s sensitivity is also an important factor, although it is technically not a “skin type”. Overview of Skin Types and How They Heal.
NORMAL SKIN
You may have a normal skin type if you are not prone to breakouts and your t-zone stays hydrated. Your t-zone is across your brows horizontally, and down the centre of your face vertically
The normal skin type will heal very evenly and the colour will last the average length of time. You can expect to go 1 to 1.5 years before a touch up becomes necessary.
DRY SKIN
You may have dry skin if your pores are nearly invisible, and your skin often feels tight throughout the day. You may also notice some flaking from time to time.
Dry skin types will heal very clean. This is true for all permanent makeup done on dry skin and it is especially true for microblading. Microbladed hair strokes will heal very crisp. Dry skin will also retain colour for the longest amount of time, usually 1.5+ years. The reason for this is that fewer oils are coming through the skin so the pigment is not diluted, or does not fade, as quickly.
COMBINATION SKIN
Combination skin will feel hydrated throughout your t-zone. Your t-zone is across your brows horizontally, and down the centre of your face vertically. Your cheek area will feel drier and may experience some flaking.
Combination skin tends to heal like normal or slightly oily skin since it is common for the eyebrow area to be on the oilier side. For all other permanent makeup (eyeliner, lips) skin will heal like the normal skin type.
SENSITIVE SKIN
Clients with sensitive skin will know that they have sensitive before they come in. If you are unsure then you probably do not have sensitive skin.
We’ve added this category because this skin type does heal differently than others. Someone with sensitivity may experiences slight pinkness that can last several days, or weeks, longer than it would for other types. They also may experience some slight swelling on the day of the procedure which is not typical for other skin types.
OILY SKIN
Oily skin is naturally more hydrated and supple. It tends to age very nicely however excess oil may clog pores more quickly. Very oily skin is also prone to larger pores.
Oily skin will heal the softest. microblade hair strokes will heal more powdery as opposed to the dry skin type for example who’s microblading will heal very crisp. How oily your skin is will make a difference. Slight oiliness will heal more like normal skin, while extremely oily skin will heal much softer and the colour will be more spread out.

MICROPIGMENTATION Q&A​
​
WHAT IS 3D MICROBLADING?
Microblading is a semi-permanent procedure where a special pen is used to draw individual strokes that mimic the appearance of real brow hair.
​
WHAT IS OMBRE EYEBROW TATTOO?
In this technique you will achieve a natural shading gradient effect, starting from the light and fading to the dark.
​
DOES IT HURT?
Everyone has a different pain tolerance or level of sensitivity so topical anaesthetics are applied to alleviate any sensation or discomfort.
​
IS IT SAFE?
Of course! All suppliers are disposable and very high quality.
​
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
The procedure takes about 2-3 hours. Please allow a proper amount of time to not make anyone rush.
​
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKES TO HEAL?
Healing time varies from individual to individual. Usually, it takes around 2 weeks but the full skin healing takes about 30 days. After the full month, the pigment is stabilised in the skin. An eyebrow tattoo is a two-step treatment, consisting of an initial procedure and then a touch up between 4-6 weeks. Due to many factors sometimes an extra session is required and is payable as regular touch up.
​
HOW OFTEN DO I NEED TO DO A TOUCH-UP?
Depending on the skin type touch up is recommended every 1-1,5 year. Your face is exposed to the sun, different products, treatments. All of these things can cause a permanent colour to fade.
Remember to use SPF cream to protect your pigmentation.
​
WHAT TO DO AFTER THE TREATMENT?
On the first day clean the area gently with the damp clean cotton pad 5 times a day to remove any blood or lymph ,in the evening after washing and drying with a clean dry tissue apply a thin ammount of aftercare cream.From day 2 wash and dry them 3 timeas a day following with aftercare cream in very thin ammount.
Aftercare is really important to get great healing results. You should keep the skin dry and clean which means no swimming, sweating, sauna, sun exposure. When you wash your face and hair try to not wet the eyebrows.No picking, scratching, rubbing the tattoo-this may result in a loss of colour or scarring. Follow this aftercare for about 2 weeks.
​
HOW WILL I CHOOSE YOUR COLOUR?
We need to consider your skin tone, skin undertone, hair and eyes colour. I would advise clients who don't wear makeup to start wearing an eyebrows pencil to have a proper amount of time to use to the new look.
​
CAN I GUARANTEE MY WORK?
I always make sure that I put all my heart end effort into the treatments, but there are so many factors of how the skin will react is different for everyone. Skin type, age, stress level, medications, scarring, diet, facial product, sun exposure, Illness all play a huge role in your results, which is why is important to know that more than one touch up may be required. I do my best but I cannot be responsible for all the additional factors.
