PREPPING FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT (day of)

  • Wear comfortable clothing as you will be lying down for a couple hours.

  • If you'd like, come in with your brows drawn in. It will help me determine what shape/color you like; if you're getting waxed, please make sure to do it a week before your appointment.

  • Eat and drink something before you come in.

  • Use the restroom right before the procedure, you will most likely not be able to go in the middle of the procedure.

AFTER CARE

Day 1 of the procedure:

Gently blot the brows with a clean tissue to prevent the lymph fluid from accumulating on the brows. 

  • First 20 minutes, blot every often (approximately every 2 minutes)

  • The rest of day 1, blot ever 30-60 minutes.

Day 1-3:

  • DO NOT get eyebrows wet for 3 days. You can take a body shower but preferably not a full shower until day 4. Blot brows dry after any exposure to humidity or sweat.

  • Day 1-3, With clean hands, use foamy antibacterial soap to lightly and gently wash the brow area; remove soap; blot dry with clean tissue.

  • After washing, apply thin layer of ointment; blot afterwards so the brow can breathe.

  • Do not wash after day 3.

Day 1 - until they are completely flaked off:

  • Apply thin layer of ointment 2x a day (more if very dry skin) until the scabbing has completely flaked off. (Usually about 10 days +/-), always blot afterwards so brow can breathe.

  • Sleep on a clean pillow case.

  • Do not touch brows with unwashed hands or let anyone else touch them

  • Keep the tattooed area clean during the healing process (Day 1-10)

  • DO NOT pick or scratch at the dry skin/flakiness; let the skin fall off naturally. Picking can cause scarring and loss of pigment.

  • Do not apply make-up to the tattooed area for the first week. Chemicals of any kind may interfere with the healing and color of your tattoo.

  • Once the treated area is completely healed, any changes or additions that need to be made can be done at your follow-up appointment no sooner than 4 week once healed.

  • Exposure to the sun over time can cause fading or discoloration of the pigment once completely healed. 

  • Glycolic acid and face peel products must be kept away from the tattooed area.

  • No sweating, saunas, steam rooms, lakes/rivers/oceans, hot tubs, extremely hot showers, pools, sleeping on your face, direct sun light, tanning beds until brows have fully flaked off (about 10-14 days)

  • After tattoo has flaked off and moving forward, use SPF on your brows to keep them from fading.

After scabs fall off, the tattooed area may seem lighter -  this is because a thin layer of protective skin forms over the treated area. Color will come back at the 3-4 week mark.
