Hi! I'm Sherry Lloyd with Sherry Loves Microblading. I worked in the beauty industry for 15+ years as a sales consultant selling professional beauty products to salons and spas.
Although, I loved being a sales consultant, I was ready to start my own business. I was very excited about Microblading after getting my eyebrows Microbladed approximately 8 years ago. I decided to get certified, and immediately started my business, and I haven't looked back since!
February 2025 marks my SEVEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY in business! I'm so excited to continue my services to all who desire to have those amazing Eyebrows and/or Lip Blush they deserve.
I love my career as a PMU Artist, and have the opportunity to meet fabulous women and men every day!

What is Microblading?
Microblading is a two-step (Initial Session and the 6 Week Perfecting Session), semi-permanent make-up procedure that creates life-like hair strokes on your brows that typically last 1-2 years.

Microblading is a two-step (Initial Session and the 6 Week Perfecting Session), semi-permanent make-up procedure that creates life-like hair strokes on your brows that typically last 1-2 years.
This is done by inserting cosmetic pigments into the epidermis layer of the skin by using a small blade attached to a hand tool. ANESTHETIC is used to help alleviate any discomfort. Mapping of the brows is also done before Microblading begins.
The 3D effect adds realism to the result, creating brows that look like real hair strokes, rather than a solid block-like traditional tattooing method.
Eyebrows are one of the most important facial features. As we age, our eyebrows begin to thin. Thinning eyebrows may also be caused by medication or illness. Microblading eyebrows gives us a younger looking appearance, and can give us our confidence back!
"Creating beautiful eyebrows isn't just about Beauty. It's about empowering women with Confidence".

Powder Brows are best for those who have extra oily skin, very sensitive skin, thin or thick skin. Basically, any type of skin that traditional Microblading isn’t a good fit.
Powder Brows are less damaging to the skin, maintains a better healing experience, and better ink retention for sensitive skin.
Powder Brows heal to a
makeup look, and some clients just prefer Powder Brows over Microblading.
If you're not sure which procedure is best for you, please reach out to me to discuss.
What are Combo Brows?
What to Expect During and After the Brow Procedure
What Are Powder Brows (Shading)?
Combo Brows are a mix of Microblading and Powder Brows (Shading). Microblading is usually done at the front of the brow creating strokes, then Shading is done on the mid-section of the brow to the tail. Combo Brows give the illusion of a Fluffy Brow. It's very popular at this time, and looks great on everyone!

Your new eyebrows will go through several stages during the healing cycle. The entire healing process takes approximately 4-6 weeks depending on your body regeneration, age, health and medications you may be taking. Make sure to follow After Care Instructions for best results.
The pigment may appear dark immediately after the procedure, and will appear much darker the following day. The pigment will start to lighten on the third or fourth day.
Note that because of natural skin regeneration, during the recovery period, brows may appear lighter than original. This may give you the impression that the color is fading too quickly. Often, even with proper care, you may lose original hair strokes, which makes the brows look uneven. This is absolutely normal! This is the reason clients need a 6 Week Perfecting Session.
Once the healing of the skin starts taking place, it will look like dandruff flakes, dry skin, or even scabbing may occur. Never rub or scratch the treated area, as it will disturb the skin from natural healing. Let the flakes or scab come off naturally. The final look of your eyebrows will be apparent approximately 30 days after procedure.
Always keep your Perfecting Session appointment for best results.
Preparing for the Brow Appointment
4-5 days before your appointment, start taking Arnica Montana, and take 5 under your tongue 4-5 times a day, and continue throughout the healing process. This will help the healing process so much better! A lot less swelling and less scabbing! My clients swear by it!
DO NOT take any pain relievers of any kind, nor drink any alcohol at least 24 hours before your appointment, and DO NOT drink any caffeine day of your appointment. These all cause the blood to thin, and cause unnecessary bleeding during the procedure.
Also, do not tweeze, shave or wax your brows at least a few days before your procedure. This causes irritation to the skin, and the procedure may have to be rescheduled. If hair removal is required, I will do it during the service.
Do Not come to your appointment with a sunburn, or any kind of irritation on your brow area. If this occurs, please reschedule.
Aftercare will be explained in detail at your appointment.

The benefit of lip blushing is being able to wake up confident with a blush of color on your lips. Lip Blush can achieve fuller-looking lips without injections or surgery. Lip blush can even out discoloration as well as enhance symmetry, leaving you with a customized, long-lasting lip shade.

This procedure is done by using a shading blade to add a flush of color into the lips.
Lip Blushing results can range from a soft blush color to a more defined look depending on the client's goals and expectations.
Preparing for the Lip Blush Appointment
For best results, it is recommended to use a sugar scrub 3-4 days before the appointment to make sure the lips are soft and moisturized. You can make your own sugar scrub by just adding a little oil, i.e. olive oil, coconut oil, etc., to the sugar and scrub the lips for 2-3 minutes. Wipe off the excess and then apply a thick mask of Coconut Oil, Aquaphor, or raw honey. Let the mask sit for 15-20 minutes, then wash off. Please avoid lipstick, as they tend to dry out the lips. Use a nourishing lip balm instead.

Potential Side Effects of Lip Blushing
Lip Blushing carries the same side effects and risks of traditional tattooing. Minor side effects are expected, though they'll decrease as your lips heal. These include:
Swelling
Redness
Pain
Bruising
Flaking
Scabbing
Ice is your best friend after a Lip Blush procedure.
If you have a history of cold sores or herpes simplex, the procedure could trigger an outbreak. Prescribed anti-viral medication should be taken in advance of the appointment, and should be noted that cold sores can effect the healed results. Some clients who have never experienced an outbreak could potentially get a cold sore after Lip Blushing.
Expect to see final results in about a month. A touch up session may be required to achieve the precise color you desire. For a Lipstick Look, a third session may be necessary.
It is important to follow all Before and After instructions to achieve the best Lip Blush final healed results.
After care instructions will be discussed at the appointment, along with an after care product to ensure perfect healing.
Important Information to Know
Let’s Talk About Pain
I know most of you are curious. Is Permanent Makeup painful? That was my first question the first time I had Microblading, and that’s usually the first question my clients ask me. To ease your mind, anesthetic is used to help alleviate any pain. I also use a second anesthetic, if needed, that is made to use on open skin. This anesthetic also has healing ingredients to help with swelling and redness. Be assured, my goal is to make you as comfortable as possible. If you have any other concerns that are not answered on my website, please feel free to message me. I’m always happy and available to answer your questions.

Do You Have Alopecia?
Microblading/Shading is a great solution for Alopecia. Both procedures give a natural looking brow effect to restore a sense of self confidence.
What About Chemotherapy Patients?
Microblading/Shading is great for chemotherapy patients! It is recommended to schedule your appointment at least 2 weeks before your chemotherapy, or 2 weeks after. Please note that healing may be slower than normal, and the post care and after care are extremely important.
If you're a Cancer patient, please reach out to me for special pricing.
Pre-Existing Tattoo or Permanent Make-Up?
The tattoo or permanent make-up must be light enough for me to work over them. If you have a tattoo and are considering Microblading /Shading, just email or text me a photo for evaluation.
