MICROBLADING, OMBRE BROWS, COMBO BROWS, AND NANO BROWS Your brows will be healed in 2 weeks. You are allowed to resume regular physical activity after 7 days. Take care of your brows by cleaning them with a gentle cleanser and keeping them hydrated with a lightweight lotion. (Available in the Aftercare Kit) First Week - (YOUR BROWS WILL APPEAR VERY DARK AND THICKER THAN WHAT THEY WILL HEAL TO). Keep your brows dry for the 1 week. (no sweating, makeup, skincare). Wash lightly with a gentle cleanse, Apply a gentle lotion afterwards. If you do get them soaked, let it air dry. Do not wip/ pat them dry. Second Week - (IF YOU ARE STILL SCABBING, DO NOT RUB ON THE SCAB AND LET IT AIR DRY). When you're done scabbing your will notice your brows are very light. Depending on your skin, it may look completely gone. That's normal. THE COLOR WILL SLOWLY COME BACK, please be patient and wait for your brows to heal. It takes 4-6 weeks for your brows to completely heal and we will not know the healed result until then. 1st touch up is scheduled 6-9 weeks after initial session and is not included. When & How Often You Need A Touch Up We will see you in 3 weeks after your initial appointment to check your healing process. Touch up depends on the clients skin and their daily activities. You can come in for a touch up any time after 6 week healing period. If you would like to make any changes to your brows (go darker, change the shape, etc.) you may come. Because everyone's skin is different, some clients will come in every 6 months or once a year. Your brows will look darker every touch up and will go through the same healing process.
