WHY BROW LAMINATION AND TINTING?

Brow lamination – chemicals are applied onto the brows to straighten them, and then fix them into an upwards position. Tinting – a brow tint is applied onto the brows to darken them. Nourishing serum – a nourishing formula is applied onto the brows to give them some moisturization and an attractive gloss..

BROW FAQS

How long does it take to heal? What is the recovery time?

Brows will take about 4- 6 weeks until they reach their final look. But it only takes 2 weeks for scabbing process to complete. After 2 weeks you can return to normal routine and activities.

How often do I need to touch up?

We recommend yearly touch ups to keep the color fresh. It varies from client to client, but it can be 9 months to 2 years, depending on the client’s skin type and life style.

Who is suited for this procedure?

This is a great procedure if you have naturally light brow hairs or your brow hair is a little bit sparse. Tinting will create even a fuller effect in conjunction with the brow lamination procedure.

Who is not a candidate for microblading?

  • You are under the age of 18
  • You are on daily blood thinners or have a blood disorder
  • You are pregnant or nursing
  • You have been on accutane in the the past year
  • You have a history of keloid scarring
  • You are currently going through chemotherapy
  • You are diabetic with uncontrolled blood-sugar levels

Please consult with your doctor before receiving permanent makeup if you are diabetic to see if pmu is a good option for you. Diabetics are more prone to infection.

Permanent Makeup cannot be performed while a client has a rosacea flare up.   

Heavy tanning bed users with tough, leathery skin may not absorb ink as well.

    MAINTAINING YOUR BROWS

    A new set of Microbladed eyebrows takes two appointments to complete and for that reason your 6-8 weeks touchup appointment is complementary. After the complementary appointment we recommend a yearly touchup to maintain the crispness and freshness of your brows. However, we do offer different touchup schedules because everyone experience the fading process differently and may need to get a touchup sooner than one year.

    • DAYS 1-10

      Do not expect your brow tattoos to heal perfectly after the first session. This is a 2 step process. It takes time.  Be patient during your 10 day healing process your brows will change and appear different from day to day. 

    • DAYS 1-14

      Immediately after your procedure brows will appear darker and more defined and this will last up to 2 weeks . Your brow tattoo can appear more solid, hair strokes may seem to disappear and that's totally normal.

    • DAYS 4-5

      Around days 4-5 you will experience flaking and your brows may look dry. Do not pick your brows, let any dryness fall off naturally. If flakes gets picked off prematurely missing hair stokes will result and cause patchy brows which can lead to scarring

    • DAYS 1-30

      Pair text with an image to focus on your chosen product, collection, or blog post. Add details on availability, style, or even provide a review.

    • DAYS 10-60

      You may experience itchiness in the brows after the 10 days for up to 2 months due to the healing process of the dermal layer. 

    • PLEASE NOTE:

      Not everyones hairstroke brows can heal clean and crisp. Hairstrokes for oilier skin types tend to heal more solid and powdery while drier skin types tend to heal more crisp and defined. Also for those who bleed more may tend to need more touchups as the blood pushes the pigment out while we tattoo.  

    6 WEEK TOUCH-UP

    Allow your brows a minimum of 4-6 weeks to heal.  When you come for your initial session, we will book your 6 week touchup. It takes a full 4-6 weeks for the color to settle. 

      • This can be a 2 (and sometimes even 3) step process.
      • The first session is used to build shape and gain symmetry.
      • The second session is used to perfect the brows and add density.
      • This is a process and some clients may need multiple sessions to achieve their desired result.
      • Do not expect perfect results after the first session.
      • Darker skin and oily skin women, permanent makeup will not look as bold or sharp compared to lighter, dryer skin type clients.
      • Some client’s skin may have a harder time retaining pigment and may require additional sessions.

    LONG TERM CARE

    There is no guarantee of results as everyone’s result will vary due to skin type, lifestyle and the initial 10 day care and long termcare of your brow tattoo.

      • Use at least spf 50 to protect your brows, sun exposure will cause fading and can alter the color of your tattoo.
      • Do not use chemical exfoliants on the brows, this will case the brows to fade faster.
      • Do not do laser your brow area (ipl etc), some lasers may change the color of the ink.
      • As the tattoo fades the strokes will get fainter and less defined. 
      • Maintenance is required to maintain desired results. Touchups are done on average every 12 months to maintain you brow tattoo. 
      • Brows typically last 1-3 years however to keep the color fresh, annual touchups are suggested.
