Hairline microblading is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure that creates realistic hair-like strokes along the hairline to address thinning, receding, or uneven hairlines. At AMORJ Seoul, we use ultra-fine needles to deposit pigment into scalp skin, mimicking natural baby hairs and creating the illusion of denser hair growth. Ideal candidates include: Women with receding temples, those with high or uneven foreheads, those experiencing early hair thinning, postpartum hairline changes, scar coverage from facelifts or accidents, and those wanting to reduce visible forehead size. Treatment is $349 and provides 1-2 years of natural-looking density without surgical hair transplants.

AMORJ's hairline microblading follows a precise artistic process: First, consultation determines which areas need density and desired natural hairline shape. Artist analyzes your natural hair growth patterns, hair color, and scalp texture. Next, mapping involves drawing the new hairline for approval, checking symmetry and proportions. Numbing cream is applied for 30 minutes to minimize discomfort. Then, using specialized micro-needles, the artist creates individual hair strokes matching your hair direction, thickness, and color. Premium pigment is custom-mixed to match your natural hair tone. The 2-hour procedure results in immediate visible density that looks completely natural, with no recovery time needed.

AMORJ's hairline microblading is $349 USD (approximately ₩470,000 KRW) for the initial session treating standard hairline areas (temples, frontal hairline, or uneven patches). This all-inclusive price includes consultation, custom pigment matching, numbing, 2-hour procedure, and aftercare instructions. Unlike other treatments, hairline microblading typically doesn't require touch-ups within 3 months. Color refresh within 6 months (if desired) is $175. Results last 1-2 years before naturally fading. This investment eliminates daily hair concealer powders and provides confidence without surgical hair transplants costing thousands more. A $40 refundable deposit confirms your booking.

AMORJ's hairline microblading involves minimal discomfort. The scalp has fewer nerve endings than facial areas, making it less sensitive than brow or eyeliner procedures. Strong topical numbing cream is applied for 30 minutes before starting. Most clients rate discomfort at 2-3 out of 10, describing the sensation as light scratching or tickling rather than pain. Temple areas may be slightly more sensitive than the frontal hairline. Numbing is reapplied if needed. Expect mild tenderness for 1-2 days after the procedure, similar to a light scalp sunburn. No downtime is needed - you can return to normal activities immediately including gentle hair washing the next day.

AMORJ's hairline microblading healing is straightforward with minimal visible recovery. Days 1-2: Slight redness along treated hairline, strokes appear darker than final result, scalp is tender, don't touch the area, sleep elevated. Days 3-5: Redness fades, light itching begins (sign of healing), scabs form over strokes (small and barely visible), apply provided healing serum twice daily, don't scratch. Days 5-10: Scabs naturally flake off revealing lighter strokes (normal), color appears temporarily patchy, continue gentle care, can wear headbands/hats. Days 10-14: Most flaking complete, color stabilizing. Days 14-30: True color emerges, strokes look natural. Week 6: Complete healing, assess if touch-up needed. Avoid excessive sweating, swimming, direct sunlight for 7 days after procedure. (+ Shampooing allowed after 24 hours)

AMORJ's hairline microblading lasts 1-2 years, shorter than eyebrow microblading due to the scalp's different characteristics. Scalp skin is thicker with more sebaceous glands, causing faster pigment breakdown. Factors affecting longevity include: Hair washing frequency (daily washing fades faster), sun exposure (UV breaks down pigment), skin type (oily scalp fades faster), hair color (darker pigments last longer), and aftercare quality. Most clients notice gradual lightening after 12 months and schedule refreshes at 18-24 months. Premium pigments used at AMORJ fade naturally to lighter brown without turning gray, orange, or blue as common with traditional tattoo inks, maintaining natural appearance even as they fade. Annual touch-ups maintain optimal density.

AMORJ custom-mixes hairline pigments to perfectly match your natural hair color. Available color families include: Black (for jet black Asian hair), Dark Brown (most common, for deep brown to black hair), Medium Brown (for lighter brown hair), Light Brown (for blonde to light brown hair), Auburn/Red Brown (for red or auburn tones), Ash Brown (for cool-toned gray or ashy hair). During consultation, your artist examines your hair roots under lighting and mixes multiple pigments to create an exact match. We consider whether you dye your hair - matching to current color or root color. Korean pigments are formulated to maintain true color without oxidizing to unnatural tones common with traditional tattoo inks.

Yes, AMORJ's hairline microblading effectively camouflages scars from facelifts, accidents, or previous surgeries. Scar tissue accepts pigment differently than normal skin, so results depend on scar characteristics. Best results occur on: Mature scars (6+ months old), flat or slightly raised scars, scars matching surrounding skin texture, non-keloid scars, scars within the natural hairline area. During consultation, your artist assesses scar viability. Scar skin may require denser strokes and potentially deeper pigment to achieve camouflage. Some scars need multiple sessions. We cannot guarantee perfect concealment, but most clients see 70-90% improvement making scars much less noticeable. Bring scar photos when scheduling your consultation.

Seoul's hairline microblading offers several advantages over surgical hair transplants: Cost effective ($349 vs $3,000-15,000 for transplants), non-invasive with zero recovery time, immediate visible results (no waiting months for hair growth), no scarring from donor site extraction, perfect for mild thinning or temple recession not severe enough to warrant surgery, adjustable and reversible as it fades naturally, no risk of transplant shock loss or poor graft survival, can be combined with natural hair for enhanced density. AMORJ's Korean artists specialize in creating ultra-realistic hair simulation indistinguishable from real hair even upon close examination. Ideal for early-stage hair loss or cosmetic enhancement rather than severe hair loss requiring surgical intervention.

Maximize AMORJ hairline microblading longevity with proper maintenance: Daily care - Use gentle sulfate-free shampoo, don't scrub the treated area roughly, pat dry rather than rubbing. Sun protection - Wear hats outdoors or apply SPF 30+ to hairline (sun exposure fades pigment quickly). Avoid - Harsh dye chemicals on hairline area, exfoliating scalp treatments, frequent swimming in chlorinated pools. Products - Use color-protecting hair products, avoid oil-based hair serums directly on microbladed area. Touch-ups - Schedule color refresh every 18-24 months for sustained results. Swimming - After 4 weeks healing, swimming is fine but rinse hair immediately after pool/ocean. Following these guidelines extends results and maintains natural appearance throughout the fade cycle.
