Follow for best results
Brow Pre-Care & Day Of
4 Weeks Before — Avoid Botox, fillers, or chemical treatments
These can make your skin more sensitive and may interfere with pigment implantation or symmetry.
4 Weeks Before — Stop using lash or brow serums
Growth serums like Latisse can thin the skin and increase bleeding during your session, reducing pigment retention.
2 Weeks Before — Pause Retinol and exfoliating products
These ingredients can thin your skin and cause irritation, making healing more difficult.
2 Weeks Before — Avoid waxing, tinting, and facials
This gives the skin time to normalize and prevents uneven absorption of pigment.
1 Week Before — Avoid tanning or heavy sun exposure
Sunburned or freshly tanned skin is too sensitive for tattooing and can alter pigment color.
72 Hours Before — Gently exfoliate the brow area
Removing dry skin helps pigment absorb evenly and prevents patchy healed results.
72 Hours Before — Keep the skin hydrated
Healthy, moisturized skin heals faster and holds color better.
24 Hours Before — Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and exercise
These can thin the blood and cause excessive bleeding, pushing pigment out of the skin.
24 Hours Before — Stay hydrated and get rest
Your skin’s hydration and circulation directly impact your healing and color retention.
Day of Appointment — Eat a full meal and dress comfortably
Maintains blood sugar levels and helps you stay relaxed throughout your session.
Brow After-Care
Wash brows after your appointment
Use Lukewarm water, splash brow & pat dry with cotton round. Every hour, take a cotton round and pat brows every hour until you go to bed. You want to wipe away lymph fluid (clear liquid, looks like your brow is sweating). More that you wipe off, the less you'll scab.
Keep brows dry and untouched for 7–10 days
Moisture can cause pigment loss or disrupt scabbing.
Avoid picking or scratching
Picking can remove pigment and create uneven healed areas.
Apply ointment sparingly as directed
Too much moisture suffocates the skin; a thin layer keeps it protected while it heals. Oily & combination skin = no ointment
Avoid makeup and skincare on the treated area
Active ingredients can irritate and fade the pigment before it sets.
No swimming, sweating, or steam for 10 days
Water and heat open pores and can cause pigment to lift prematurely.
Expect color to fade 30–40%
The initial color appears darker, then softens as the skin regenerates.
Brow Touchup Policy
Healing + fading is normal
Your brows will appear bold at first, then fade and soften by up to 40% as they heal — this is normal.
Touch-up timing
A follow-up 6–8 weeks later refines color and shape for lasting results.
Long-term results
Proper preparation, aftercare, and touch-ups ensure your brows look natural and balanced for up to three years.
