- Please ensure your skin is as healthy as possible when coming to your appointment, this includes not being sunburnt or healing from any other sort of skin treatment such as peels or needling.
- Try to avoid using retinol around the brow area for two weeks prior to coming in.
- Botox, fillers laser/harsh skin treatments around the brow area and forehead should only be done 2 weeks prior to your appointment or two weeks after your appointment.
- Wash your hair prior to your brow appointment since hot showers are not recommended straight after your procedure and you will need to keep your brows dry for 10 days post your procedure. (Don’t worry you can still wash your hair in those two weeks!)
- No heavy exercising 24 hours prior to your appointment.
- No waxing, threading, tinting, henna or lamination for 3 weeks prior to your appointment.
- If you have an ideal shape and colour in mind, bring a few reference photos with you to your appointment on your phone. Remember once your brows are done healing after the initial session they will lighten 40-60% this is normal.
- You may fill in your eyebrows with makeup as you normally would before your appointment so we can take into consideration the shape you desire.
- We require our clients to avoid any blood thinning medication for a minimum of 72 hours prior to their appointment 1 week is preferred. This includes Vitamin E, Aspirin, Niacin, fish oil supplements, and Ibuprofen.
- Do not drink any alcohol or caffeine the night before and day of your appointment.
- It is highly recommended that you avoid SUN and TANNING BED exposure for 30 days BEFORE and AFTER your procedure. If you show up for your appointment with a new tan or a sunburn, you will need to reschedule and will forfeit your deposit. As your skin exfoliates from a sunburn, it will take the pigment with it.
- If you plan to go on a vacation, it is recommended to plan your trip a minimum of 14 days after the procedure.
