Cleanse and apply balm 2-3 times a day as needed days 2-10. Keep brows well hydrated.

AVOID WITHIN FIRST 10 DAYS

  • Sweating or intense physical activities.

  • Swimming/Sauna/jacuzzi/tanning/long or super hot showers

  • Laser or chemical treatments/peels/Retin-A or Glycolic Acid

  • Heavy cleaning with dust or debris

  • Spicy foods/Smoking/Alcohol (slows down healing)

  • Driving in open air vehicles (convertibles, boats, bikes, motorcycles)

  • Excessively touching treated area other than to clean or apply balm. Do not scratch or pick the treated area

  • Do NOT apply ANY MAKEUP on or around treated area

  • Do not pick at the area during peeling stage. It is part of the natural healing process.

  • It is normal for clients to lose original hair strokes or pigmentation. Everyone’s skin is different! It is absolutely normal and possible to heal unevenly. This is why a touch up session is required to add more strokes or pigmentation and perfect the shape if needed.

  • Avoid sleeping positions that will rub your treated area while healing.

  • Cover your brows or treated area with a hat if you’re in the sun. The sun will cause the area to fade, resulting in an undesired color. Always wear sunscreen on the treated area after they heal if you aren’t wearing makeup.
