Concerned about whether you are eligible for microblading or microshading services? It is my number one goal to be sure you are going to get the best results with your brow treatment. With that said, here is a list of those who should avoid receiving permanent cosmetics (compromised skin or pre-existing medical conditions). Be sure to check with your doctor if you have any concerns and disclose beforehand if any apply to you.
