I require that anyone who has had their brows tattooed previously by another artist text me a picture before booking an appointment, this way we can discuss your options and schedule sufficient time. Any client coming to me from a different artist is considered a new client and will be charged full price.
Initial appointments usually take around 2.5 hours. This time includes the designing process, numbing the area, and the actual procedure. Follow-up sessions take approximately one hour.
Cosmetic tattooing is designed to fade over time. Factors such as skin type, lifestyle, age, metabolism, medications, and pigment color affect the longevity of the tattoo. The sun and tanning beds can affect the rate at which these pigments are broken down. To take care of your brows follow the aftercare instructions and touch up your brows every 12 to 18 months as needed. Touch-ups are normal and expected for permanent cosmetics
Yes! All permanent cosmetic procedures require two sessions. During your 4 to 6 week follow up we can assess your pigment retention and make any adjustments needed. This follow-up also increases the longevity of your semi permanent cosmetics.
In the hours following your procedure your brows will appear much darker and bolder than the healed product. You may experience some redness or swelling around the treated area, this typically disappears within 48 hours. Around day 3 you may notice some flaking or light scabbing on the treated area, do not pick at it, doing so can result in loss of pigment in those areas,brows may appear spotty or patchy until the entire brow has finished healing. You may notice that some areas may appear very light or even to have lost pigment entirely after they have peeled, do not worry this is normal, the epidermis will normalize after the 4 to 6 weeks and softened pigment should appear more clearly on the surface of the skin. After 4 to 6 weeks your brows will be fully healed and pigment that did not return will be addressed at your touch-up appointment. If you prefer darker bolder browse we can always add more color or dimension during that appointment as well.
