Here’s something the beauty industry doesn’t make clear enough: microblading is a cosmetic tattoo. It’s not a separate category or a gentler alternative, it’s one specific technique within the broader family of cosmetic tattooing, in the same way that a latte is a type of coffee rather than a different drink entirely. The confusion around microblading vs cosmetic tattoo exists because the terms get used interchangeably in some contexts and as opposites in others, and if you’re trying to book the right treatment you deserve a straight answer about what each one actually is.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is that answer, and if you haven’t had a cosmetic tattoo before, what to expect from your first appointment<\/a> is worth reading alongside it.<\/p>\n
