Aftercare Information
Immediately After:
For the first 3 hours blot your brows with a clean tissue/ paper towel (do this every 15-20min). 1 hour after your appointment, wipe your brow area with the sterile wipe included in your aftercare kit (a little pigment will come off- totally normal).
Clients with dry/ normal skin:
Wash your brows gently with the cleanser provided, rinse with cool water, pat dry, apply a rice size of healing balm (split between the two brows).Repeat the cleansing process morning and night for 10 days and reapply balm whenever you feel like your brows are dry/ itchy/ tight.
Clients with oily/ combination skin:
Wash your brows gently with the cleanser provided, rinse with cool water, pat dry. Repeat the cleansing process morning and night for 10 days and apply the healing balm whenever you feel like your brows are dry/ itchy/ tight. It is also recommended to blot your brows several times a day to remove any excess oils from them (hello, T-zone!).
For everyone:
Do not apply any brow make up and be mindful of skin care product application in the surrounding area (anti aging products are a definite no!).
Avoid water at all costs, this includes sweat from exercise and when you shower.
What to expect:
Color will appear dark and may seem red - this is normal and temporary. Shape can appear uneven as the scabbing may pull and/or distort the skin in the surrounding area.
Brows may become itchy and flaky, although it may be tempting, do not pick! Prematurely removing scabs may pull pigment away - Allow your skin to heal on its own terms.
Melanin rich clients may experience temporary hypo-pigmentation after peeling. Although uncommon, it is a normal response to trauma. As your skin continues to heal, the color will “bloom” and become more visible.
Afterwards:
Each person’s body heals differently. Your fresh tattoo may appear light at first. As your skin continues the healing process, the color will bloom and become more visible. The true color of your new tattoo will be best viewed around the 6 week mark. It is important to remember that this is a two step process. Any areas that need to be adjusted will be addressed at the touch up, patience is key!
In some cases, additional sessions are necessary to achieve the desired results.
Long term:
Your tattoo is an investment and will require continued care. Anti-aging products, exfoliation treatments and sun/UV exposure will lighten your tattoo. It is important to wear sun screen and to tell your skin care professional to stay clear of the tattooed area. Additionally, clients with oily skin, iron deficiency or h other skin issues, may see fading more quickly. Refresh appointments are necessary to maintain color and detail.
Immediately After:
With clean, dry hands, wipe lips once every 1/2 hour with wet cotton rounds to remove any fluids that may leak from your fresh tattoo. Do this until you go to bed. Lips may appear swollen and feel tender - this is temporary and can last up to 48 hours.
Avoid spicy food, alcoholic beverages, hot and colored liquids for the first 24 hours.
Days 2-7:
Apply the healing balm included in your aftercare kit. Use sparingly - keep them hydrated but not too wet. Always use a fresh applicator brush or clean hands when touching your lips.
During this time, your lips may feel slightly textured and appear dark in color.
Do not pick or bite any scabs.
Avoid excessive amounts of water, including sweat from exercise and water from the shower.
Do not apply makeup or skin care products directly on or around the area.

Do not apply any eye makeup, cleansers, lotions/creams or any ointments for the duration of this period.
