What Microblading Is

Microblading, performed at our Bellevue studio

Microblading is a cosmetic eyebrow technique that places individual hair-like strokes into the upper layer of the skin to create fuller, more defined brows that heal soft and natural. At Eastside Microblading & Beauty, it is performed at our Bellevue studio by Amanda Banks, an International Grand Master Permanent Makeup Artist and former AAM Board Member, and by the master artists she has personally trained. The studio’s signature commitment is that nobody can tell you had it done.

Results last 12 to 18 months for most clients. The pigment, depth, and tone are chosen for how your brows will age over the years, not just on healing day. Microblading suits normal-to-dry skin best; if you have oily, mature, or scarred skin, the team will honestly recommend nano brows or powder brows instead during your suitability review call. All pigments pass European safety standards, and most clients rate the discomfort a 2 or 3 out of 10 under topical 4% lidocaine.

Compare current brow appointments

The Square menu lists Nano/Powder Brows by artist. For a microblading-specific plan and price, ask for a personal brow recommendation.

Current Square listings checked September 21, 2026. Pricing varies by artist and service. Touch-ups are scheduled and charged separately. Choose your studio to review the service details and deposit before your visit.

Our Process

The Eastside Process for Microblading

Book online or start with a personal recommendation. We review suitability before your visit, then map and approve your brow design together at your appointment.

1

The pre-visit suitability review

You can book online or request a personal recommendation. The studio screens for medical contraindications (pregnancy, autoimmune conditions, recent medications, skin conditions, prior PMU work), discusses your goals, and confirms whether microblading is right for your skin type. If you are a better candidate for nano or powder brows, we recommend that instead.

2

Skin assessment and numbing

At your appointment, the artist evaluates your skin type, brow density, and any prior PMU work. Topical 4% lidocaine is applied. No injectables. The technique is gentle enough that this is all most clients need. Numbing takes about 20 to 30 minutes.

3

Mapping and shape approval

Using symmetry software, your bone structure, and the ratios of your face, the artist draws your ideal brow shape with a pencil. You review and adjust the shape together until it is exactly what you want. No pigment goes in until you approve the shape.

4

Pigment selection

The artist selects pigment colors that blend with your natural brow color, your skin tone, and the way the pigment will fade over time. All pigments at Eastside Microblading & Beauty pass European safety standards. The selection is reviewed with you before application.

5

Hair-stroke application

Using a hand-tool microblade, the artist applies individual hair-like strokes following the shape you approved. Pigment is placed in the upper layer of skin. Most clients rate the discomfort 2 to 3 out of 10. Many fall asleep during the appointment.

6

Post-treatment walkthrough

The artist walks you through your healing kit, aftercare instructions, and what to expect at each healing stage. You leave with everything you need for the next several weeks.

7

Touch-up at 6 to 8 weeks

A perfecting touch-up 6 to 8 weeks after the initial session refines any areas that healed lighter than expected. This touch-up is scheduled and charged separately.

In Short

Microblading for Seattle clients at Eastside Microblading & Beauty is performed at our Bellevue, WA studio, about 20 to 25 minutes door to door midday from Seattle. The studio is led by Amanda Banks, an International Grand Master Permanent Makeup Artist and former AAM Board Member, and has performed 10,000+ treatments. Microblading results last 12 to 18 months for most clients and heal soft, natural, and hair-stroke-believable. You can book online or request a personal recommendation. Before your visit, the team completes a suitability review where every client is screened for medical contraindications and the brow plan is designed together.

Worth the Drive

Why Seattle clients drive to our Bellevue studio

SR-520 Evergreen Point BridgeI-90 floating bridgeI-405 / NE 8th St

Seattle clients reach the Eastside Microblading & Beauty Bellevue studio at 989 112th Ave NE by crossing one of two floating bridges: north and central Seattle neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Ballard, and Queen Anne take SR-520 across the Evergreen Point Bridge, while downtown, Beacon Hill, and West Seattle come over the toll-free I-90 bridge. Off-peak the drive is barely over ten minutes; midday it runs about 20 to 25, and either bridge feeds straight onto I-405 at NE 8th Street, three blocks from The Bellevue Collection. Seattle has no shortage of medspas and brow bars, so the clients who make this drive are the ones who want a credentialed, natural-results specialist rather than the closest option.

"I always joke that since you waited to come to us, we have the most experience now"

Most people are nervous about microblading because they have seen the wrong examples. We have all seen somebody who went on a discount site, or went to somebody who had just started, and ended up with a shape that was too bold or a color that turned. We all have a friend whose brows are a little too much.

Eastside Microblading & Beauty is the opposite of that. The Bellevue studio’s clients are the ones who research the most, who are the pickiest, who want their brows to look like brows, not makeup. The technique is gentle enough that most clients rate the discomfort 2 or 3 out of 10. Many fall asleep during the appointment.

Symmetry is one of the things Eastside is known for. We use symmetry software, your bone structure, and the ratios of your face to map the right balance before a single stroke is placed. When the balance feels right, the whole face feels right. The Bellevue microblading process is built around your face, not someone else's shape.

The other common worry is how it ages. Eastside Microblading & Beauty thinks about your results in years, not weeks. The pigment, the depth, the saturation, and the technique are all chosen for how they will look in 12 to 18 months, not just on healing day. And if your brows ever heal cooler or lighter than planned, the perfecting touch-up is where we correct it. That is the part most people do not consider, but the studio does.

Travel & Scheduling

Planning your trip from Seattle

The Bellevue studio blocks extra time for travel-in clients and keeps a closet where Seattle clients leave bags or jackets during the appointment. Microblading first appointments run about three hours, so Seattle clients typically plan to arrive about fifteen minutes early for paperwork. The studio is at 989 112th Ave NE, Suite 203, Bellevue, WA 98004, about 20 to 25 minutes door to door midday from Seattle, with on-site parking.

Zara is AMAZING! Definitely one of the best decisions I’ve ever made to get my brows done here. So happy I got my brows done! I was hesitant at first because I didn’t know what to expect. After chatting with the very friendly ladies who picked up the phone I went for it. It’s worth every penny. I didn’t know how to shape my eyebrows and decided to trust the process. Couldn’t be happier, excited to have found such a great place and people that prioritize comfort and quality.

After years of contemplation, I finally got my eyebrows microbladed. A lot of research later led me to getting them done with Zara and all I can say is I wish I would have done this years ago!! She 👏🏻 is 👏🏻exceptional👏🏻. In both her manner and her work. She really takes the time to understand the result you are after and does not rush your sessions. It’s a friendly, positive experience. And the results are insanely beautiful. So natural, the color and shape perfect. The time saved getting ready in the morning 🤌🏻 *chefs kiss*. In years to come, I will be seeking her out for my touch ups! Super happy I got it done

Zara is amazing! I went to Eastside Microblading on a recommendation from a friend and I love my new look! I went in wanting just the lash line enhancement. I wanted to look ready to go first thing in the morning and not look like a blank canvas. At my appointment, Zara listened to what I wanted and kept looking at my eyebrows. When I finished, she said “yes, this will look great on you. we are doing your eyebrows too.” We both had a good laugh and talked it over and I booked for eyebrows too. The difference is night and day! She uses numbing cream and takes her time creating a look that fits your face. If you are thinking about doing this, give Zara a call. You will love your new look!

Zara is the best, best, best! She nano-bladed my girlfriend’s eyebrows and tinted her lips. It is so natural and my girlfriend looks so beautiful. She and I have been recommending Zara to anyone curious about these services. I can’t recommend Zara highly enough. 10 stars!!!!

I had an amazing lip blush experience with Zara! She was knowledgeable, patient, and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. She explained the aftercare clearly and checked in to make sure everything was going well. My lips already look beautiful, and I can’t wait to see the final healed results. Thank you, Zara, for your excellent work. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for lip blush services! Zara is the best. I love her art work!

I'm so happy that I got my eyebrows done by Zara! The end result is definitely worth the small amount of time and aftercare involved. I was worried at first about how thin and patchy my natural eyebrows were and whether the result would look natural. I love how they turned out! They look natural and just completely wonderful. Highly recommend working with Zara.

When I decided to get into the beauty business, inspired by my own Microblading experience as a customer, I did a thorough search for potential trainers and schools. I went through plenty of prospective trainers, but it was Amanda and Beauty Angels that stood out to me. Beyond Amanda's obvious winning personality and positive attitude, the details of the Beauty Angels Academy intrigued me. While a lot of Microblading schools and trainers offered a few days of instruction and then left you to sink or swim, only Amanda and Beauty Angels offered 20 levels of curriculum through online training, which can take up to 6 months, in addition to the live training. At first I was a bit hesitant because I was impatient to get my business up and running and getting certified in a few days seemed pretty enticing! But the more I researched the Beauty Angels training and the more I researched Amanda on Facebook, Google, and Instagram (my inner spy... or stalker!), I became more and more convinced that she was the right trainer for me. I read every review she's ever gotten in her life (ok... maybe not!) and that, along with the success of her former students, sealed it for me. And I was not disappointed! Once I attended her Microblading course in March, I knew for sure I had made the right decision. Amanda is so calm and thorough in her explanations. She breaks everything down so that you can absorb it. But she's no pushover and is not going to pass you unless you produce good work. For example, for the very first level of the online training, I had to hand-draw a pair of brows. I submitted my first attempt: rejected. I submitted my second attempt: rejected. I took a deep breath, took Amanda's advice from each rejection to heart and finally passed on my third attempt! I have little doubt that a lot of other trainers wouldn't have been so firm in holding their standards but Amanda will draw the best out of you whether you like it or not! But it wasn't all just criticism. Whenever I submitted work, Amanda would be sure to tell me what I did RIGHT in addition to pointing out where I could do better. It was those bits of praise that helped keep my confidence up when I wasn't sure I could do it. Another great thing about Amanda is that she's always just a text away, as she will respond to any of your questions even on the weekends or when she's on vacation. That's dedication right there! I ended up passing my online training in June and opened up my own Microblading business soon after. Even after I officially graduated the course, Amanda still made herself available to answer questions and has been very helpful with little tidbits of knowledge, like what ink colors/mixes to use on various clients' skin colors or advice on business procedures (which is all new to me! I've never run a business before!). She is a person with a heart of gold and is very geniune about wanting to help others. I know she could make more money just performing Microblading instead of instructing others but she enjoys giving back and helping others make the journey she has made to the top of the mountain. I'm still not there, but I am so happy I have had Amanda guiding me along the way and I know I'll get there one day!

Honestly Amanda is just overall an amazing human being. I took my microblading/shading online/live course with her and I’m so thankful to have found this academy and also for someone like her to be so close to where I live and be able to learn from the best master trainer! She’s so supportive and motivational! I love learning from her so much that I recommended all my friends that are thinking about taking a microblading course to come to her! I’m also going to be returning for 3 more courses and not going anywhere else! She’s the best at what she does whether it’s microblading people or being a master trainer! She knows her stuff and isn’t afraid to share all the information she has learned throughout the years with her students! Thank you being so amazing Amanda! ❤️

I highly recommend the Beauty Angels Advanced Microblading and Shading course from Amanda! My upper strokes were a hot mess before I took the class. She worked with me and gave me great constructive criticism. Now my upper strokes are beautiful. Don’t expect to pass every level with your first submission, listen to the instructions given to you and apply it to future submissions. Amanda is a great instructor and your work will be far superior when you finish compared to when you started.
