Sexy Brows heal best on normal to dry skin types. Hair strokes may not work well on clients with very oily skin, large pores or previous permanent cosmetics tattoos. On those with oily skin types and larger pores, results may appear softer and powdery.

Clients who want a softer looking brow may be happier choosing a powder brow or a combination of hair strokes with powder fill (this can be discussed at your initial appointment). Powder brows are designed to look like soft powdery makeup. This can replace makeup but will still look natural. Some clients will add a touch of makeup if they want a “bold brow”.

The hair stroke method is designed to blend with your natural brow hair, so the more hair you have the more realistic results will appear. If you have very little or sparse eyebrow hair results will appear flatter, and it is possible that you may need more than two sessions to achieve your desired result.

For the first timer getting brows tattoo, after the first 2 sessions with 6-8 week interval, ombre brows can last anywhere from two to four years. The retention will depend on a number of factors, such as lifestyle, skin type, sun exposure, health condition, etc.

You should avoid this procedure or consult a doctor before booking a treatment if you have any of these pre-existing health conditions:

Diabetic (requires clearance from doctor) (potential healing/infection issues)

Blood pressure/cholesterol meds (work against the blood platelets sticking together for more color loss) or uncontrolled high blood pressure

Accutane – must wait one year after.

Autoimmune disorder (due to healing and medication) (consult with doctor).

Chemotherapy (consult your doctor) (compromised immune system and pigment retention issues)

Pregnant or nursing. Epilepsy or Parkinson’s disease.

Heart conditions or heart disease

Hemophilia (consult doctor)

History of Keloids or Hypertrophic scarring (overgrowth of scar tissue)

Organ transplant

Pacemaker or major heart problems (must have cardiologist clearance if not on blood thinners)

Rosacea skin Thyroid problems (medications may cause pigment to not retain properly)

Viral infections and/or diseases

Seborrheic Dermatitis

Severely oily skin (pigment will blur/not be crisp hair strokes and may not last as long)

Skin irritations or Psoriasis near the treated area (rashes, sunburn, acne, etc.)

Poor general health: Sick (cold, flu, etc.) – PLEASE reschedule

Don’t touch and peel off the scabs. The scabs will shed naturally.

Avoid any makeup around the treatment area for at least 12-14 days.

Stay out of heavy sun exposure.

Avoid any facial treatments during the healing process.

Avoid long and hot showers.

Avoid washing your brows extensively. You can use a cotton pad for wiping the area.

Doing any of the following will cause excessive bleeding during your procedure and will hinder your final result:

Do not work out immediately prior to your appointment.

You should not take (unless prescribed by a doctor) any medications that may thin your blood

(i.e. Aspirin, Ibproferen, fish oil, Vitamin E) 48 hours before your procedure.

Do not drink alcohol within 48 hours of your procedure.

Minimal caffeine the day of your procedure.

If you regularly tint your brows, you will want to do so 72 hours before your appointment.

If you prefer to have your eyebrows waxed/sugared, please do so at least 48 hours before your appointment, otherwise I will thread/tweeze stray hairs when we design your brows.

Shower and wash your face the day of your appointment.

You must not use Retin-A, Renova, or Differin near the brow area 2 weeks before or 3 months after the procedure.

You will need to avoid pools, lakes, salt water and extreme sun exposure for at least two weeks following your appointment, so make vacation plans accordingly!

No Botox, fillers, Microdermabrasion, chemical peels or anything of the like for at least 2 weeks prior to your procedure.

Oily Skin: Increased oil production can cause hairs strokes to blur and heal lighter and powdery.

Smoking: Smokers may notice that it will fade faster.

Anemia and iron deficiency: Your body will absorb these iron based pigments more quickly.

Sun exposure: Increased exposure to the sun will cause premature fading. You will want to use a hat and sunscreen for your eyebrow area.

Age and metabolism: The faster your metabolism, the faster the pigment will fade.

Bleeding during the procedure: Although this is very rare, it will greatly affect how your body retains pigment.

It is imperative that you follow the instructions to avoid blood thinning medications, supplements, alcohol, and caffeine before your procedure.

Pain tolerance varies, and having the procedure during your menstrual cycle may increase your sensitivity.
