Microblading and Lash Services in Fulton and Marriottsville, MD
The Modern Answer for Sparse Brows and Flat Lashes
Refined results without daily makeup
Over-plucked arches, hair loss from aging or thyroid issues, and lashes that lose their curl by lunchtime are some of the most common frustrations we hear in consultation. Patients tell us they spend ten to twenty minutes every morning drawing in brow shape, filling sparse patches with pencil and pomade, then fighting with an eyelash curler that never holds. The result often looks heavy by midday and disappears by evening, especially after a workout, a humid commute, or a swim.
Our 3D brow and lash menu solves these issues at the source. Microblading deposits semi-permanent pigment in hair-thin strokes for natural fullness lasting one to three years. Brow lamination realigns existing brow hairs into a lifted, brushed-up shape that lasts four to eight weeks. A lash lift with tint curls and darkens your own lashes for six to eight weeks of mascara-free definition. Choose one service or combine them for a complete, low-maintenance refresh.
What Is 3D Brow and Lash Work?
3D brows and lashes is a curated menu of semi-permanent and temporary services that reshape and define the eye area without daily makeup. Microblading is a form of cosmetic micropigmentation in which a trained artist uses a fine hand-held blade to deposit pigment in hairlike strokes within the upper dermis; the U.S. FDA classifies microblading pigments as cosmetic colorants for permanent makeup.
Brow lamination is a keratin-based perm that loosens the brow hair, combs it into shape, and locks it in place; a lash lift uses the same chemistry to curl natural lashes from the base, and an optional tint deepens color. None of these use extensions, glues, or implanted fibers. If you are weighing micropigmentation options, see our permanent makeup page.

Side Effects and Safety
3D brow and lash services are generally well tolerated when performed by trained providers, but every cosmetic procedure carries some risk.
Common, Expected Side Effects
After microblading, expect mild redness, tenderness and slight swelling for 24 to 48 hours, followed by light flaking and a temporary lightening of the strokes during the healing window. Pigment fully settles by the 4 to 6 week perfecting visit. Brow lamination and lash lifts may cause brief tingling during the solution phases and, rarely, mild irritation or dryness of the treated hairs.
Less Common Reactions to Watch For
Less common risks include allergic reaction to pigments, keratin solutions or tints, skin sensitivity, uneven healing, color migration, and very rare infection if aftercare is not followed.
Rare Risks and Important Safety Screening
The FDA recommends verifying that your provider uses sterile single-use needles and approved pigments, both of which are standard at Pura Vida. We perform a patch test 48 hours in advance for lamination and lash lift clients with sensitive skin or a history of reactions. Tell your provider immediately if you experience prolonged redness, blistering, or signs of infection.
Real Results
Photographs are taken at the same angle and lighting before treatment, immediately after, and at the 4 to 6 week perfecting visit for microblading. Lamination and lash lift results are documented at week 1. Individual results vary based on natural hair density, skin type and aftercare compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Microblading, lamination and lifts
01 How long does microblading last?
Microblading typically lasts 1 to 3 years depending on your skin type, sun exposure and skincare routine. Oilier skin tends to fade faster. An annual color refresh keeps brows looking fresh.
02 Does microblading hurt?
Most patients describe microblading as a mild scratching sensation. We apply a topical numbing cream before and during the session to keep you comfortable throughout the appointment.
03 When is the microblading touch-up?
Your perfecting touch-up is scheduled 4 to 6 weeks after the initial session. This visit refines any soft spots, balances symmetry and locks in your final shape and color.
04 How long does brow lamination last?
Brow lamination lasts about 4 to 8 weeks. Hair growth cycles, brow gel use and how often you cleanse the area all influence longevity.
05 Can I wear mascara after a lash lift?
Yes, after 24 hours you can wear mascara. Many patients skip it entirely because the lift and optional tint already give a dark, defined look.
06 Can I combine microblading, lamination and a lash lift?
Yes. Many patients book microblading first, then add lamination and a lash lift at follow-up visits. Combos can also be planned in a single longer appointment when appropriate.
07 Is microblading safe during pregnancy?
We do not perform microblading, lamination or lash lifts during pregnancy or breastfeeding, in line with FDA guidance on cosmetic procedures and limited safety data in these populations.
08 Which Pura Vida location offers 3D brows and lashes?
