Use a gentle cleanser (use water and lather in your hands) to wash your eyebrows morning & night, everyday for 7-10 days or until the flaking has stopped.

Make sure you blot the completely dry with a clean towel after washing. Allow NO WATER to collect/sit on the brow area. DO NOT RUB OR WIPE

Apply the recommended aftercare product provided to your eyebrows morning & night. A very small amount to each brow with clean fingers. (The size of a grain of rice should be sufficient for BOTH eyebrows)

Oily skin types may be told to avoid ointment all together or to use a lotion-like product rather than ointment, and allow for more of a dry healing process for the 7-10 days.

DO NOT expose your eyebrows to the sun during the healing process. UV Rays can alter the pigment of your tattoo and cause damage to healing skin. Following the healing process, SPF is important for the longevity your micropigmentation.

DO NOT sweat excessively for 10 DAYS. Sweat contains salt and bacteria, of which dripping into the healing area can infect and prematurely fade your brow tattoo. Salt in the sweat may also alter the colour of your tattoo. Moderate exercise is fine, but it is typically recommended to avoid any during the first 3 days after your procedure.

DO NOT soak or allow water directly run or spray on your brow tattoo. This is especially important in the first few days, you do not want to wash out any pigment trying to settle/heal.

DO NOT use Vaseline on your tattoo.

DO NOT use ANY makeup, creams, exfoliants on the brows for 10 DAYS.

AVOID sauna’s, pools, and steam rooms.

WHAT TO EXPECT...

Expect to feel some tightness in the treatment area. You may have a “heavy brow” feeling or a slight headache. Your eyebrows will look darkest for the first few days, then scab or peel, realizing their actual color once fully healed at 4 weeks. Always keep your brow area clean with a moderate amount of aftercare ointment. Avoid getting foundation or other makeup products on your brow tattoo, as it makes them look dull.

• DO NOT expect your brow tattoos to heal perfectly after the first session. This can be a 2 step process. It takes time. BE PATIENT during your 10 day healing process, your eyebrows will change and appear different from day to day. TRUST THE PROCESS!

• Immediately after your procedure your eyebrows will appear DARKER and more defined and this will last up to 2 WEEKS. Your brow tattoo can appear more solid, hair strokes may seem to disappear and it may look wet and painted on.

• Around days 4 or 5, you will experience flaking and your eyebrows may look dry. DO NOT PICK. It is crucial you let any dryness fall off naturally. If flakes are picked off prematurely then missing hair stokes will result, causing patchy eyebrows and can lead to scarring.

• Your brow tattoo will take up to 4 WEEKS to fully heal.

• When the flaking comes off, the hair strokes may seem faint. This is because a fresh layer of skin has healed over the brow tattoo, and is often milky. Wait a few weeks and the hair strokes will become clearer. Colour will continue to change on a daily basis until all healing is complete after 4 weeks.

• You may experience itchiness in the brows after the 10 days, and for up to 2 months due to the healing process of the dermal layer.

• Not everyone's microblading/hair-stokes in the eyebrows can heal clean and crisp. Hair-strokes for oilier skin types tend to heal more solid and powdery while drier skin types tend to heal more crisp and defined. Those who bleed more may tend to need more touchups as the blood pushes the pigment out while we tattoo.

FOLLOW UP SESSIONS + COLOUR BOOST

Allow your brows a MINIMUM of 6-12 WEEKS to heal before booking a touch up. This gives you the time to decide if you do or do not need a touch up appointment. It's takes a full 12 weeks for colour to settle completely. It is your responsibility to book your follow-ups or colour boost appointments. Please keep the high demand in mind. If your tattoo comes back too faded, due to waiting too long to get in for your touch up, then additional charges may apply.

• Follow-ups are typically done within the first 3 MONTHS after your initial appointment.

• Permanent Makeup is often a 2 (or even 3) step process.

• The first session is used to build shape and gain symmetry.

• The second session is used to perfect and add density.

• This is a PROCESS, some clients may need multiple sessions to achieve their desired results.

• Do not expect perfect results after the first session.

• Darker skin and oily skin women, permanent makeup will not look as bold or sharp compared to lighter, dryer skin type clients.

• Some client’s skin may have a harder time retaining pigment and may require additional sessions. Other variables and lifestyles can also effect retention and the amount of sessions required.

   

LONG-TERM CARE 

THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF RESULTS as everyone’s result will vary due to skin type, lifestyle, the initial 10 DAYS of care during healing, and long-term care of your brow tattoo.

• Use at least SPF 50 to protect your brow tattoo. Sun exposure (UV rays) will cause fading and can alter the color of your tattoo.

• DO NOT use chemical exfoliants on the eyebrow area, causing the brows to fade faster.

• DO NOT get laser on your brow area (IPL etc), some lasers may also change the color of the ink.

• As the tattoo fades, the strokes will get faint and less defined.

• Maintenance is required to maintain desired results. Touchups are done on average every 9 - 24 MONTHS to maintain you brow tattoo.

• Microblading/Hair-stroke brows typically last 1-3 years.
