# How to Use a Microblading Machine Like a Pro
Microblading machines are essential for creating natural-looking, semi-permanent eyebrows. However, improper use can lead to uneven strokes, poor pigment retention, or client discomfort. This guide covers machine setup, needle selection, technique, and aftercare to help professionals achieve flawless results.
Choosing the Right Machine & Needles
Machine Selection
Opt for a lightweight, ergonomic microblading machine with adjustable speed settings. Rotary and pen-style machines are popular for their precision and ease of use.
Needle Configuration
- Single needles create fine, hair-like strokes.
- Multi-needle cartridges (e.g., 3-5 pins) work for shading or filling.
- Ensure needles are sterile and single-use to prevent contamination.
Preparing the Skin
Cleansing & Numbing
1. Cleanse the area with an alcohol-free solution.
2. Apply a high-quality numbing cream (20-30 minutes before treatment).
Mapping & Design
- Use a brow pencil to outline the shape.
- Follow natural hair growth patterns for realistic results.
Mastering the Technique
Hand Positioning
- Hold the machine at a 45-degree angle for optimal pigment deposit.
- Use light pressure to avoid over-penetration.
Stroke Technique
- Work in small sections, following the mapped design.
- Feathering strokes should mimic natural brow hairs.
- Avoid going too deep (0.2-0.3mm is ideal).
Aftercare & Touch-Ups
Immediate Aftercare
- Apply a healing ointment to soothe the skin.
- Advise clients to avoid water, sweat, and sun exposure for 7-10 days.
Scheduling Touch-Ups
- Recommend a follow-up session 4-6 weeks later for adjustments.
By following these steps, professionals can enhance their microblading skills and deliver consistent, high-quality results. For High Quality machines and supplies, explore QM Makeup’s professional-grade tools.

What is the difference between Super Numb Tattoo Cream and Nano Numb Cream For Tattoo?
Both super numb cream and nano numb cream can be used for tattoos, piercings or other beauty treatments. But they are suitable for different people. Super numb cream has a stronger effect. If you need a very strong super numb tattoo cream, we recommend you to use Super Numb Tattoo Cream. Nano Numb Cream is developed for people with sensitive skin. The formula is more gentle, anti-sensitive and anti-redness. If you need a comfortably numb tattoo cream specifically for sensitive skin, we recommend you to use nano numb cream.

How long does the lash lift tint and brow tint effect last?
The effect for eyelash tinting and brow tinting can last for 6-8 weeks, during which time you can carry out water activities normally. Generally, after 6-8 weeks, the eyelashes and eyebrows will return to their original state, at which time you can arrange for a new tinting treatment.
