After your brow appt...
​
What to expect: Your brows will be very dark the first few days. You may notice slight swelling, this should subside in about 24-48 hours. On approx day 3 you may notice flaking or fading. Day 4-7 itching and flaking may occur. Please do not touch your brows. Let the skin naturally shed off. They will then start to fade up to 15-20%. Do not be alarmed, this is normal. Your 6 week touch up is necessary to complete this process.
For best results please follow these aftercare instructions precisely
-
Do not sweat or get your brows wet for 48 hours.
-
Do not pick or scratch your brows until your brows are completely healed. (7-14 days)
-
Do not sleep directly on your brows for 7 days.
-
Do not swim for 7 days (bacteria is high in hot tubs, lakes, oceans etc.)
-
Do not exercise for 48 hours. (Sweating)
-
Do not receive chemical peels or microdermabrasions in the brow area for 7 days pre/post.
-
Do not use any products containing AHA’s or other active skincare in the brow area until healed.
-
Do not apply makeup to the brow area for 7 days. Keep your brow area very clean!
Wearing makeup is okay, but you will want to be cautious around your brow area for bacteria purposes.
You may wipe your brows gently with water 1-2 times a day in order to keep them clean. (after avoiding water for 48 hrs) Apply your aftercare ointment using clean q tips while lightly applying a thin layer 1-2 times daily or as needed (dab, do not rub). DO NOT USE OINTMENT if you have oily skin. When the brows get itchy, do not pick at them this means that they are healing! If you pick at them, the color can come off ruining the pigment retention.
Remember ---> This is a two session process. Do not expect completion after one session. The 6 week touch up appointment is crucial to complete your brows. Some clients may require a 3rd session depending on their individual needs.
