In order to determine a client's needs and identify contraindications, an accurate inspection of the skin is crucial. The treatments are categorized into those that require medical referral and those that are restricted to the local area.
Infectious skin disorders and diseases are the most common conditions that require medical referral.

If you advise your potential clients as to whether they're candidates for microblading prior to their appointment, you'll save yourself and them a lot of trouble and frustration. Conduct consultations prior to the first appointment. The reason is that appointments can be very long and thorough, you may spend most of the time talking to clients and designing their eyebrows. Therefore, screening would be the only reason for a consultation. Advise your clients on who is a candidate.

It's anyone who wants beautiful, full brows all day, every day! The target audience includes busy parents and business people who have little time to apply their brow makeup, active people who don't want to worry about sweaty makeup while exercising or swimming, or anyone who has trouble getting those perfect brows that celebrities and YouTube makeup artists always seem to have. Patients with scarring, trichotillomania, alopecia, cancer, and other diseases and disorders that result in natural hair loss are also treated.

Taking Blood Thinners : This increases bleeding and makes it harder to perform the procedure. The pigment can also become diluted, resulting in a splotchy appearance.
 
Inflammation Of The Skin Near The Treatment Area, Such As Sunburn Or Eczema: Skin that has been inflamed will be extremely sensitive and will have poor results.
 
Use Of Skin Sensitizing Products : (including but not limited to Retinol/Retin-a/Vitamin A - should be stopped two weeks prior to the appointment) Product and medication sensitivity can lead to bleeding and long healing, resulting in poor customer service and poor results.
 
Botox Within The Last Two Weeks : Botox can alter the symmetry of your eyebrows. If you plan on getting Botox before microblading, then wait until it has fully kicked in.
 
Accutane within last year : This can affect skin sensitivity and healing as well as lead to changes in skin condition, impacting healing.
 
History Of Keloid Scarring : Microblading involves very small cuts, so there is a possibility that those cuts could result in keloid scarring.
 
Undergoing Chemotherapy: People who are undergoing chemotherapy may suffer from poor healing. In addition, any tattoo poses a risk of infection, and risking someone's health is not worth it for someone battling cancer.
 
Acne Sufferers : During microblading sessions, breakouts of acne in the brow could cause bleeding, which would dilute the pigment and may also cause spotty healing.
 
Pregnant Women : There is a general recommendation to wait for microblading until after delivery as a precaution for the unborn child.

•   If they had previously applied permanent makeup to their eyebrows

The truth is so many people are still learning about microblading, despite the fact that it may seem like everyone knows how it works. On the internet, as well as among friends and industry professionals, there is a lot of inaccurate information. You likely know a lot more about this craft than your potential clients, so it is crucial that you make sure they understand it all completely. Your clients will not only be impressed with your level of expertise, but also you will save yourself from a lot of headaches if they know exactly what to expect before you meet them.

It may be necessary for your client to follow certain procedures before treatment.
When preparing for treatment, as well as during and after treatment, special consideration should be given to tasks involved.

It is essential to prepare before beginning any treatment in order to ensure that health and safety precautions have been taken. The treatment area should never show evidence of the previous client, such as crumpled bed sheets or used towels.

 
Speaking clearly, asking only appropriate questions, listening carefully to what the client is saying, and showing respect are all part of demonstrating professionalism. When you conduct the consultation in a professional manner, the client will feel confident and trust you. Provide time for questions from the client. Creating a relaxed atmosphere for your clients is important.
