It is very important to me that the client feels safe and trusts the master, or rather that the master becomes the client's friend and advisor, otherwise how will the client put his/her face in the hands of the master? 

I had a client who had beautiful eyebrows and she just needed to grow back the ends, which she said were not growing. She had come to see me 3 times over the years to 'consult' whether she should have microblading and what do you think, well really, she didn't have any growth at the tips of her eyebrows and I kept telling her to wait, to grow them back because I thought it would be the smartest thing to do. In her case, when she didn't grow - I would definitely recommend having the procedure if you want to have perfect eyebrows all the time, not to have to do the ends every time or to spend money on eyebrow corrections. Well, the day came when she came for microblading and thanked me for my patience and the time I gave her, the frank conversations, which allowed me to finally make a decision and be 100% for sure. In my opinion, every self-respecting master will agree with me that quality is much better than quantity, you can definitely stamp everyone's eyebrows, but is it always necessary...?

Share your experience, do you often ask your masters for advice in order to make a decision or do you come to 100% already having made up your mind? Has a master ever discouraged you from having a procedure?
