What you should know: Prices vary based on location and artist expertise, but expect a quality job to run somewhere between Ksh 15,000 to Ksh 20,000. In the first few days, you might want to plan around your brows. On the first day after microblading, clean your eyebrows with distilled water on cotton pad gently and apply aftercare cream every four hours. On the second day, repeat that three times. For the next five days, do this morning and night. Your brow area might be irritated, so try not to schedule big things (e.g., a huge job interview or engagement photos) for the first week or two. Also, avoid going to the gym, any excess sweating around eyebrows will prevent pigment retention and can cause infection.
How long microblading lasts:
You'll need a touch-up in about a month (the cost of this is typically budgeted into the fee of the initial service). Then, microblading can last anywhere from 12 months to three years, depending on your lifestyle. A few ways to extend it: Stay out of the sun, since it can fade the pigment, and avoid putting exfoliants (like retinol and glycolic acid) near your brows, because they'll lift the top layers of your skin with continued use—and the color with it.
