# 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.

Super numb
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.
After sales support
How do I change or cancel my order?
Any cancellation made after an order has been placed, will be subject to a cancellation fee regardless of the time the order has been placed (even if it is just a second later) as the merchant processor/credit card charges us a fee for cancellations.
Please note that any orders that have already been packed, produced or shipped cannot be cancelled.
Can I change my shipping address after placing an order?
Please be advised that your shipping address cannot be revised after the order has been processed or shipped. In the event of an incorrect address provided during the order process, we need to submit an address change application to the courier company, which will be charged a corresponding address change fee and takes 1-3 working days. We will apply to the shipping company for address change after you pay us the address change fee. The address change fee is subject to the shipping company's bill.
Secondary Numbing essence
How should I choose a numbing product? Order of use and recommendations?
Generally speaking, we recommend choosing numbing products based on your operating experience, usage habits, treatment stage, treatment area, and applicable population. Here are some tips for choosing numbing products.
1. Treatment stage: Before treatment: tattoo numb cream/tattoo numb essence; During treatment: secondary tattoo numb essence
2. Treatment area: Eyebrows: tattoo numb cream/tattoo numb essence/eyebrow patch; Eyeliner: numbing cream; Lips: tattoo numb cream/numbing essence/lip patch; Body: tattoo numb cream.
3. Operating experience: Beginner: tattoo numb cream; Professional: all are okay
4. Applicable skin: Normal skin: all are okay; Sensitive skin: nano numb cream
Micro Blade
Do your microblades contain nickel?
Our flex microblading needle are made of 304 stainless steel, which does contain traces of nickel. The addition of nickel can can enhance the corrosion resistance of stainless steel and increase its toughness and strength, ensuring that the material will perform consistently in a variety of environments. Since the microblades are only implanted through the skin, there is no adverse reaction to the skin under normal circumstances. If you are concerned about this, a patch test can be performed prior to the procedure.
