WHAT TO EXPECT VISUALLY:

 

You'll leave your appointment with brows that look bigger due to light welling, pigment that is warm in color, darker, and more defined. This is normal and nothing to be concerned about. Brows will start to oxidize for the first 2-3 days and look dark. Light peeling will occur, and when the peeling is complete, your brows can look lighter and patchy. By the time the skin fully heals though each layer (4-6 weeks), the color will bloom and come back.

 

WHAT TO DO AFTER:

 

Immediately following your appointment, you'll blot your brows with a clean cotton pad every couple of minutes until you do not see any more lymph and/or pigment. In 2-3 hours you'll do your first wash with the provided foaming cleanser. Wash gently with your fingertips and pat dry with a fresh paper towel. Once your skin and your brow hairs are dry, apply a rice grain amount of the provided ointment for both of your brows. Less is more, you do not want your brows to look oily or greasy. Too much ointment will suffocate the skin and affect proper healing. Wash and use the ointment twice a day, for 7 days. If you are oily, please only use the ointment in the evening before bed.
