This is a long overdue review for one of the best (if not the best) cosmetic procedures I've decided to go through. I had my eyebrows microbladed with Seung approximately 6 months ago.My story is, I've always had fair/short eyebrows that didn't frame my face. Once I started plucking the strays to give them more of a shape, they just looked thin and overplucked. I can't remember how I discovered microblading, but I was intrigued and did my fair share of research to find the best esthetician in the DFW area that could provide a natural look. I didn't want to end up with purple/tattooed eyebrows, you know?I'm so happy I found Seung. Her work is phenomenal. Booking: She's usually booked 3-4 months out, but it was worth the wait for me. You can waitlist for cancellations, I believe, if you email or call. She may be busy to pick up, but you can leave a voicemail. Cost: It was $50 deposit, and the procedure I received was $500 for the first visit. There is a required follow-up 6 weeks afterward that is an additional $75. I would check her website for the up-to-date pricing as prices may have increased.First Visit: Her previous client ran over by 15-20 minutes but I didn't mind. I think you have to understand that she is the only one working there and can't just drop what she's doing in the middle of the session. I was first given a consultation where Seung explained the colors that would work for my skin tone. She took time to understand the shape I wanted and drew an outline. The first 15 min or so did hurt because numbing cream was not used. It helps the color last longer. I wasn't in excruciating pain, but maybe it's akin to a cat scratching you. After the initial coloring, numbing cream is applied, and more "blading" is performed, and this part didn't hurt much. In total, the process took about 3 hours. My eyebrows looked great right after although they were sore for about a day. Then it became really dark for the next 2 days until it started scabbing and peeling (this is normal). It took about 2-3 weeks for the brows to heal and color to settle. She will explain aftercare instructions to you.Second visit: After the first visit, I was already content, but once my eyebrows healed, there were a few patches where the colors did not latch on as well. During the second visit, she spends time filling in these parts, and alter the shape, if you would like. Aftercare instructions are same as the first visit. The color is semi-permanent so it lasts about 12-18 months.Location: She has an office inside of the Imagique hair & spa building (second floor). Took me a while to find it, so fyi.I found Seung really nice and felt comfortable with her. If you're considering getting your eyebrows done, I highly recommend making an appointment here. Read Less
