It is important that you prepare for your appointment to promote proper healing, reduce the risk of complications, reduce discomfort and ensure optimal results.

It is also important to prepare for the healing process, please read the below information carefully. Please ensure you do not have any important events on during the healing period.

• Refrain from active skincare that will thin/sensitise the skin on your face six weeks prior to your appointment. (Retinoids, Alpha-Hydroxy Acids, Chemical Peels etc.)

• Do not consume any alcohol, fish oil, caffeine, or take any blood thinners such as Aspirin, Ibuprofen or Niacin 48 hours before your procedure; this may cause excess bleeding and may affect your results. If you are medically prescribed blood thinners and rely on them, please let us know.

• Cosmetic Botox or fillers should be done two weeks prior or two weeks after your appointment.

• We recommend using fragrance free baby wipes/ water wipes to assist in cleaning your tattoo & q-tips to apply your ointment, it is best to obtain these items before your appointment to ensure you are prepared for the healing process.  

• It is advised to wash your hair before your tattooing appointment.

• If you have lash services done regularly, book your eyelash extension refill before your brow tattoo and do any lash lifting services prior to your tattoo as your therapist will not be able to rest their hands on your eyebrows while healing.

• Please be aware is not possible to tattoo over any blemishes, sores, sunburn or moles in or around the brow area.

• The first ten days are crucial for the healing process, and 90% of your result will depend on how well you look after your tattoo.

• Just like any cosmetic procedure, the full healing process can take much longer than the initial healing process. The entire healing process can take up to six weeks.

• You must clean your face with fragrance-free make-up wipes or with a damp face washer.

• You cannot get your healing eyebrows (soaking) wet for the duration of the initial healing process (7-10 days).

• You must keep your eyebrows (which are wounds) extremely clean. You can do so by gently wiping them daily with a fragrance-free make-up wipe and micellar water or gently washing them with warm soapy water. Please ensure you pat the area dry with a clean tissue immediately afterwards to ensure the scab doesn’t fall off prematurely.

• Your aftercare ointment needs to be applied daily AM & PM (after the initial 48 hours).

• You will be unable to exercise for the duration of the initial healing process. Exercising will promote sweating which will cause the pigment to push out of the skin, leaving you with a patchy result.

• You cannot be exposed to direct sunlight during this period.

• Around day 3-5 your tattoo will start to look even darker as it is starting to form a scab.

• Around day 5 exfoliation will begin to take place. This means that the top layer of the skin will begin to peel off in flakes (looks like fish food).

• Once the scabs have fallen off the colour is going to look very faded and possibly a little pink from the new skin. Please allow a full 3 weeks for the colour to return to the brow.

• Once all scabs have left the brow, you can return back to your normal routine.
