FH Beauty Ink’s Microblading Journey From Tokyo to Torrance to Burbank

September 14, 20255 min read

We were recently honored to be featured in ShoutOut LA, where our founder Fumie Hiranuma shared her incredible journey from Tokyo to establishing her permanent makeup artistry in Southern California. Since that interview, we've embarked on an exciting new chapter, relocating from Torrance to Burbank to better serve our growing clientele across Los Angeles County.

A Journey of Growth and Evolution

Fumie's path to becoming one of LA's most sought-after microblading artists began in Tokyo, where attention to detail and dedication to craft are cultural cornerstones. After establishing FH Beauty Ink in Torrance and building a loyal following in the South Bay area, we recognized that many of our clients were traveling from the Valley, Glendale, and central LA for our services.

This inspired our move to Burbank, a central location that makes our natural microblading services more accessible to clients throughout Los Angeles while maintaining the intimate, personalized atmosphere that our South Bay clients loved.

Why We Chose Burbank for Our New Studio

The Perfect Central Location

Our move from Torrance to Burbank was strategic:

  • For our San Fernando Valley clients: No more long drives through LA traffic

  • For our Glendale clients: Just a short trip over

  • For our South Bay loyalists: Still accessible via major freeways

  • For new clients: Central to Studio City, North Hollywood, and Pasadena

A Fresh Start with the Same Excellence

While our address has changed, our commitment to excellence remains constant. Our Burbank studio features:

  • State-of-the-art equipment and lighting

  • Private, comfortable treatment rooms

  • Easy parking (something our Torrance clients always appreciated!)

  • A calm, professional environment perfect for precise work

Why Clients Choose FH Beauty Ink for Microblading in Los Angeles

1. Customized Approach to Every Client

Unlike many microblading studios that use a one-size-fits-all approach, Fumie takes time to understand each client's unique facial structure, lifestyle, and beauty goals. Whether you're a busy mom from Glendale who needs low-maintenance brows or a Studio City professional wanting a polished look, every treatment is tailored specifically to you.

2. The Perfect Burbank Location

Our Burbank studio offers:

  • Easy parking (a rarity in LA!)

  • Central location accessible from major freeways

  • Quiet, professional environment away from the hustle of Hollywood

  • Close proximity to Glendale, North Hollywood, and the Valley

3. Experience That Shows in Every Stroke

With hundreds of successful microblading procedures completed, Fumie has developed techniques that ensure:

  • Natural-looking brows that complement your features

  • Proper pigment selection for lasting color

  • Minimal discomfort during the procedure

  • Excellent retention rates

What Makes Our Microblading Process Different

Initial Consultation: Where Art Meets Science

Every microblading journey at FH Beauty Ink begins with our comprehensive consultation (our 30 minute consultation is also available as a separate service). During this session, we:

  • Map your ideal brow shape using golden ratio principles

  • Discuss your daily routine and maintenance preferences

  • Select the perfect pigment to match your skin tone and hair color

  • Address any concerns or questions you have about the process

The Microblading Procedure: Precision in Every Detail

Our 2.5-hour microblading session includes:

  1. Custom brow design - We work together to create your perfect shape

  2. Numbing application - Ensuring your comfort throughout

  3. Hair stroke creation - Each stroke is carefully placed to mimic natural hair growth

  4. Color customization - Pigments mixed specifically for your skin tone

  5. Free Touch-up - free touch-up after 6 weeks

  6. Aftercare education - Detailed instructions for optimal healing

The Results: Natural Beauty That Lasts

Our clients often tell us they receive compliments on their "natural" brows, the highest praise for any microblading artist. The results typically last 12-18 months, with many clients traveling from across LA County for their annual touch-ups.

Client Success Stories from Across Los Angeles

Sarah from Glendale: "When FH Beauty moved from Torrance to Burbank, it cut my drive time in half! The same amazing quality, now conveniently located."

Maria from Redondo Beach: "I was worried when they moved from Torrance, but I still make the drive to Burbank. No one else compares to Fumie's work."

Jennifer from Studio City: "I used to skip permanent makeup because Torrance was too far. Now that they're in Burbank, I'm a regular client!"

From South Bay to the Valley: Bringing Excellence Closer to You

Our transition from Torrance to Burbank represents more than just a change of address, it's our commitment to being accessible to all of Los Angeles. We're grateful to our South Bay clients who continue to support us and excited to welcome new clients from:

  • Burbank and surrounding neighborhoods

  • Glendale and the foothills

  • Studio City and the Valley

  • North Hollywood and the arts district

  • Pasadena and the SGV

Building Our New Community in Burbank

While we cherish our roots in Torrance and the relationships built there, we're thrilled to become part of the Burbank beauty community. We're already connecting with local businesses and look forward to serving the Valley with the same dedication that made us a South Bay favorite.

Our commitment extends beyond just creating beautiful brows, we're dedicated to educating our clients about:

  • Proper aftercare for lasting results
