If you are looking for microblading in Amman, this page gathers what you need to know before booking: what it is, what it costs, how long it lasts, who it suits and who it does not, and how the session goes at the Alaa Al Masri studio in Abdoun.
What is microblading?
Microblading is hand-drawn work: I open a very fine incision in the surface layer of the skin with a thin blade and deposit pigment in it. Each incision becomes a hairstroke, with a direction, length and curve that follow how your own hair grows in that exact spot.
That is why the brow reads as strokes rather than shading: up close you see the hairs, and from a distance you see a fuller, natural brow.
Microblading price in Amman and how long it lasts
| Price | 180 Jordanian dinars, covering the consultation and the shape design before we begin |
|---|---|
| How long it lasts | 3 to 9 months |
| Session length | About 90 minutes, including consultation, mapping and numbing |
| Suits | Normal to dry skin |
| Does not suit | Oily or combination skin, or a brow with previous work on it |
How long it lasts varies with skin type, sun exposure, peels, and how fast your skin renews itself.
Is microblading right for you?
- Normal to dry skin. The incision stays fine and holds its edge.
- Sparse brows or brows with gaps that need filling rather than rebuilding.
It does not suit:
- Oily or combination skin. Oil pushes pigment out of the incision, the edges spread, and within months the brow becomes a soft shadow.
- A brow with an old tattoo. A fine stroke will not cover old pigment, so it is lightened first with removal sessions.
- Certain medical conditions. We go through these in the consultation first.
How a microblading session goes
- Consultation: skin type, any previous work, and what you want.
- Measuring and mapping: I draw the shape on your face to measurement, and I do not begin until you see it in the mirror and agree.
- Choosing the pigment against your skin and hair tone.
- Numbing, then the work itself.
- Aftercare: ointment and written instructions before you leave.
After the session the colour looks darker in the first week, then lightens, so don't judge the result before healing is complete. Details in microblading after one week.

Where to get microblading in Amman
The studio is in Abdoun, Queen Zein Al Sharaf Street, Amman, open every day from 10:00 to 19:00. I started working on brows in 2013, and before that I was a portrait painter.
Many clients come from outside Amman. Approximate driving time: Zarqa 40 minutes, Salt and Madaba about 45 minutes, Irbid an hour and a half. The session takes about 90 minutes, so it is done the same day, with follow-up over WhatsApp.
To book or ask about your brows, message me on WhatsApp at +962797373015. Full details of the technique are on the microblading page.

A consultation settles which technique suits your skin and your face — no general rule fits everyone.
