PLEASE FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE PROPER HEALING AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE
Aftercare kits are provided post procedure.
We want you to be in love with the results, so please follow all instructions provided to you. Failure to do so can lead to discoloration, pigment loss, and or possible infections.
• Healing time and results will always vary due to everyone 's skin being different. Daily lifestyle, diet, facial regimen, medications, are different factors to healed results.
Touchups are recommended to maintain the color and definition of your brows. On average, it takes about 14 days but some clients may take longer than 14 days for peeling to complete, be patient and trust the process.
Expect for brows to fade up to 50% based on your skin type; specifically oily skin with large pores.
• Absolutely zero moisturizer, scented cleanser, sunscreen, or make-up application on the eyebrows until they are completely healed or risk infection
• No hot tubs, salt water, swimming, or excessive sweating as the brows should not get completely wet (excessive sweating will push out the pigment) - for atleast 2-3 weeks
• Avoid hot steamy showers and direct water hitting your face
• Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds for atleast 2 weeks· Itchiness during the healing period is normal but please refrain from picking / scratching at the scabs/flaky and let them fall off naturally as you don't want to take off the scab prematurely resulting in patchiness of eyebrows
• No Botox, waxing, fillers , exfoliants, facials around and on the brow area until they are completely healed -- give it atleast 4-5 weeks before doing so
• Avoid sleeping on your face/eyebrows during this time and best to not have loose hair brushing against your brow as your hair can have bacteria/dust
• Please allow 6-7 weeks to see the true results of your healed brows· Loss of colour during the scabbing / peeling stage is normal as the colours will resurface after they are healed
• Once your eyebrows have completely peeled, they will look very light and foggy (this is completely normal, which is why we recommend to get a touch up after 5 weeks and nothing earlier as your brows need time to completely heal)
• Do not use products containing AHA’s on or near pigmented areas including glycolic or lactic acids or Retin A products (they will fade the brows)· Please remember that your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare all play a part to your healed results.
• After the brows have completely healed and all scabs have fallen off, your eyebrows will become 40% lighter and will shrink in size· Uneven colour can be expected as the initial appointment sometimes isn't enough as everyones skin holds pigment different.

PLEASE FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE PROPER HEALING AFTER YOUR PROCEDURE
Immediately after your appointment, your brows will appear much darker, bolder and may be red. The redness and swelling will subside in 24 hours. Expect a tingly, tenderness as well but it will also subside in a few hours.
On average, your new brows will take about 14 days to heal. During this time, it is important you follow the steps provided by me.
Your eyebrows will go through many phases during these 14 days.
Day 1 :
• If your brows are oozing plasma / lymph after the procedure, take a damp paper towel and pat away the excess every hour until bedtime. This will prevent a thick crust from forming
• Use a gentle unscented cleanser to clean your eyebrows. Pat dry with a clean paper towel.
• Avoid the shower head stream to hit you directly in the face for the first 7 days. It's fine to get them wet a bit but gently pat dry with a paper towel
• Avoid touching your face / brows with your fingers as they can have bacteria on them and create an infection
• If your face is oily, blot your face / forehead gently
Day 2-4:
• After day 2, there should be no more oozing of lymph. Keep them clean and dry and allow them to breathe so they can heal.
• You can start cleaning your eyebrows gently by using the sponge provided (soak it first) and water to lightly pat the area. Once done, please pat it dry with a paper towel. DO NOT RUB OR WIPE.
• After cleaning, use a small grain size amount of ointment with a clean qtip. (Twice a day morning & night if you’re normal to dry skin. Once a day only if you are oily
• Avoid excessive sweating / hot steam showers for the next few days as the skin is still open. (i.e. gym, working out as this can push out the pigments). Please wait until the area has healed over, then it will be fine to resume exercise. (2 weeks)
• Your brows should still be very bold and dark at this time, but the swelling would have subsided
Day 4-6:
• The brow area may feel tight and harder as your body is naturally absorbing and healing your brows by creating scabs
• They will feel dry and you may experience itching and flaking. Try your best to not itch and just poke them with a qtip if itchy· If it gets too itchy or dry, use a CLEAN qtip each time and apply a grain size ointment provided gently just enough to keep it moisturized and to aid with the flaking and itchiness
• Do not pick at scabs or peeling skin during this phase
Day 6-12:
• The scabs will begin to flake off exposing a faint tattoo underneath
• The tattoo will look foggy and light in colour, some area may seem to have disappeared. The sharpness will return gradually as the dead skin slowly falls off over the next couple weeks
• Don't freak out with the loss of colour or patchiness as this is normal
Day 12-25:
• No extra precautions need to be taken at this point
• You can discontinue ointment after all scabs have fallen off
• There is generally a very thin layer of dead skin covering the area at this stage, which is contributing to lack of sharpness however this dead skin will continue to flake off over the next couple weeks
• The upper layers of the skin heal faster than the layers below. Although your tattoo might look great at this point, your skin is still healing underneath
• It takes about 5 weeks for your skin to fully heal, this is why we recommend a touch up after 5 weeks·
• After 4-5 weeks, you may resume your regular routine
DO NOT :
• Pick the scabs or any peeling skin. Allow the scabs to fall off naturally. Never pick or pull the scabs off. Doing so can cause the pigment to be pulled off and leave skin pink
• DO not apply any makeup on them until they are completely healed
• Scratch your tattoo
• Expose your tattoo to sun. When the tattoo is new, your skin is raw and healing which makes it more sensitive to the sun. Once your tattoo has healed, you can apply sunscreen to the area when going out in the sun. Constant exposure to the sun can cause the tattoo to fade prematurely
• Submerge in water. No swimming, saunas or steam rooms for two weeks. You want the area to stay dry
• Do not apply Polysporin, Vaseline or any product containing Lanolin or healing agents. This can suffocate your eyebrows.
• Touch ups are optional but recommended after 5 weeks depending on how your brows have healed and held pigment.
DO NOT WAIT TO BOOK YOUR TOUCH UP APPOINTMENT as I may not have any availability and you will have to pay a higher fee after the 12 week window.

All permanent cosmetics are considered a multiple-step appointment process.

Although we give our best efforts to provide you with quality service, many factors such as; lifestyle, skin type, proper after care, current lip colour, eyebrow hair, bone structure, skin care products, any medications before and after can result in a less than desired outcome as each client will heal differently. In order for your new brows/lips to heal properly (and look their very best) please follow all Pre & Post Care Instructions provided!

DAY 3:
• Shedding will begin. Do not pick at the scabs! No pulling, rubbing, picking, licking or you will prematurely remove colour which will cause your lips to heal unevenly. No trauma at all. Be extremely careful after showers.
DAY 4-7:
• Lips will continue to lighten and shed. Shedding should be complete around days 5-7.
• Colour will gradually bloom in 5-8 weeks, so please be patient
For any dark lip neutralization - your lips will get darker before it gets lighter. Please be patient with the process.
Once you are done peeling, your lips will initially look even. Then, the dark areas will get even darker than they were before (don’t freak). Once that phase passes, your lips will begin to lighten up again. There is also a risk of hypo pigmentation in which certain areas of your lips will be discoloured or turn white. If this does happen, it is temporary and will go away. This whole process takes about 7-8 weeks to see the final true result. During this time, you may wear lipstick when you are done peeling while you are going through these phases.

Aftercare kits are provided post procedure.
• After the tattoo, you are to rinse your mouth with an antiseptic mouth wash
• Please change your mask 3-4 times a day if you will be wearing it all day to avoid any possible infection

• Do not splash-wash your face. Gently clean your lips twice daily with a damp cotton pad
• No kissing, no oral sex, no licking lips, no touching, no picking or scratching of your lips for 7 days. You do not want an infection as this is an OPEN WOUND. An infection can ruin the tattoo
• No smoking for the next 7 days (Vape is okay but please clean the vape with alcohol wipes before using)

• After day 2, please use only the provided A&D ointment with a clean qtip each time with a dabbing motion. Not your hands unless they are properly washed. Keep your lips hydrated at all times so apply the ointment every few hours
• Please drink through a straw (for 1 week)
• DO NOT eat or drink anything that is staining, such as red wine, soy sauce or anything that is very sour/citrus, salty spicy, or oily as it can irritate your very sensitive lips. Cut food into bits and place into your mouth. DO NOT rub your lips with food or anything in general—as this can cause bacteria to get into the fragile skin. Please treat the lips as if they are raw and tender. Eat solid foods rather than liquids / soup
• Be careful while brushing your teeth. Natural toothpastes are best (AVOID WHITENING TOOTHPASTE), and spit frequently to avoid toothpaste foam buildup on your lips. Don't overstretch your lips. Use straw to retrieve water and rinse carefully

• Do not sweat on the tattoo until all the scabs have come off naturally. Sweat will take the pigment from your tattoo.
• Do not get facials, fillers, botox, chemical treatments, and microdermabrasion, lip scrubs for 5 weeks post appointment date
• Do not sleep on your face as you don’t want to lift your scabs prematurely
• Sleep on a clean pillow case to avoid infection

• Avoid harsh cleansers, creams, lipstick, lipgloss, makeup or any other products on the treated area until all the scabs have fallen off naturally. These things can jeopardize the healing of the tattoo
• Avoid underwater swimming for a minimum of 4 weeks as you don’t want to risk bacterial infection
• Don’t get your tattoo too wet for too long. It will make the scabs soggy and easier to fall off prematurely. Remember, you want to keep the scabs on for as long as you can and let them fall off naturally

If a cold sore outbreak does occur, it will generally begin on day 3 of the healing process. This is not caused by your tattoo or your artist. Herpes lies dormant in the nervous system forever and can reappear if you are exposed to trauma. please contact your doctor to see if they recommend putting you on an antiviral herpes medication. All clients who are prone to cold sores were advised from me prior to take antiviral medication to prevent an outbreak, but sometimes it can live in your body without your knowledge and cause a surprise outbreak. This is extremely rare, but if you feel a strange sensation in your lips it is always advised to seek medical advice asap.
• Remember, your selected color will be stronger and more sharply defined immediately after your tattoo.
• The next day, your lips will appear darker in color.
• After the skin has flaked/peeled away from your lips (during days 3-5) your lips will appear as if little or no color is present. This is normal and part of the healing process.
• In the 3 weeks following this, the color will blossom into a considerably softer version of the original color.
• The approximate healing period is 14 days, however, healing can be prolonged if your immune system is compromised or if you are generally stressed, or by poor diet.
• Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of color is to be expected. This is why we book a touch-up appointment - allowing us to fine-tune your lip tattoo.
Avoid products on healed lips such as:
o Benzoyl peroxide
o Hydrogen peroxide
o Glycolic acid
o Apple cider vinegar
o Vitamin C
o Retinol
These products are not recommended on your lips as they can fade your tattoo faster. It is recommended to invest in a good SPF lipbalm / chapstick to prevent faster fading of the tattoo. Lip blush can last up to three years if taken care of properly.
Long Term Care
• Use sunscreen on your lips every day. Sun exposure will gradually fade your lip tattoo.
• Keep your lips hydrated 24/7.
• If you are planning a chemical peel, laser, or IPL/hair removal on your face, or an MRI scan, please inform the technician of your lip tattoo.
• Please inform the National Blood Service if you donate blood, as you may not be eligible to give blood for 4 months post-application.
*The final results heal 40-50% lighter than the day you got them done. The bright. bold, vibrant and darkness of the first few days is followed by peeling/scabbing and a few days of patchiness. Color looks uneven, light and dark, during this time. When ALL of the scabs have fallen off, it takes a few weeks for the color to slowly settle in and come back. The healed results will be softer and not as crisp.
We cannot control how much color your skin chooses to absorb, or how evenly it heals to a certain extent. Most procedures require a second session to fix any inconsistencies and perfect what was done the first time. Minor adjustments in color and shaping are possible at the second session.
• Remember, your selected color will be stronger and more sharply defined immediately after your tattoo.
• The next day, your lips will appear darker in color.
• After the skin has flaked/peeled away from your lips (during days 3-5) your lips will appear as if little or no color is present. This is normal and part of the healing process.
• In the 3 weeks following this, the color will blossom into a considerably softer version of the original color.
• The approximate healing period is 14 days, however, healing can be prolonged if your immune system is compromised or if you are generally stressed, or by poor diet.
• Keep in mind that in many cases, some unevenness of color is to be expected. This is why we book a touch-up appointment - allowing us to fine-tune your lip tattoo.
