• You may wear makeup to the appointment to give us an idea how you normally style your brow.

• You may wax or sugar before your appointment at a minimum of 3 days prior.

• Avoid all blood thinners for 72 hours prior to appointment; aspirin, fish oil, vitamin e, ibuprofen or other blood thinners like alcohol and caffeine 24 hours prior.

Important Notes:

• No caffeine on the morning of your appointment.

• Do not take blood thinners for 48 hour prior to your appointment.

• No makeup or soaking your brows in water or sweat while healing for 2 weeks.

• Micropigmentation is done in TWO appointments, your brows are not final until the 2nd session has healed.

• Micropigmentation is a process, it might feel slow but the long-term quality results are worth it.

• Healing time is 7-14 days; we all heal differently and results are not guaranteed.
