BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT:
You can bring in reference pictures if you have an ideal shape or color. You may fill in your brows as you normally do before you come to your appointment so we can take in consideration the shape you prefer.
-DO NOT drink alcohol or take any blood thinning medications (I.e. Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Niacin, etc.) 24 hours before your appointment.
-DO NOT get excessive sun or use a tanning bed 30 days BEFORE and AFTER your appointment.
AFTER YOUR APPOINTMENT:
You may experience redness and swelling up to 48 hours following. The microbladed area will appear around 40% darker and bolder during the initial healing process. In the first week, you will begin to see the area soften, and the color will start to lighten while healing. The strokes may become itchy and flaky during the first two weeks. •*Do not pick/scratch the pigment* •
*Please note that in the first 6 weeks the amount of pigment that you notice fades varies from client to client. You may feel like you are loosing too much color; please be advised that the skin regenerates the pigment and the healing process can in some cases hide the strokes completely. You must allow the full healing time of 6 weeks to see the true color.*
1. HOW DO I CARE FOR MY BROWS?
Days 1-7: Wash
Wash daily to remove bacteria, build up of product and oils, and dead skin. (Don't worry, THIS DOES NOT REMOVE THE PIGMENT!)
Gently wash your eyebrows each morning and night with water and an antibacterial soap like Dial Soap, Cetaphil, or Neutrogena. With a very light touch, use your fingertips to gently cleanse the eyebrows. Rub the area in a smooth motion for 10 seconds and rinse with water ensuring that all soap is rinsed away. To dry, gently pat with a clean tissue. DO NOT use any cleansing products containing acids (glycolic, lactic, or AHA), or exfoliants.
Days 1-7 Moisturize
Apply a rice grain amount of aftercare ointment with a cotton swab and spread it across the treated area. Be sure not to over-apply, as this will suffocate your skin and delay healing. The ointment should be barely noticeable on the skin. NEVER put the ointment on a wet or damp tattoo.
AWM should have you covered, but here are some extra tips to help with a smooth and easy recovery:
Important Reminders
Important note about showering:
Limit your showers to 5 minutes so that you do not create too much steam. Keep your face/procedure area out of the water while you wash your body, then, at the end of your shower, wash your hair. Your face should only be getting wet only at the end of the shower. Avoid excessive rinsing and hot water on the treated area.
2. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MICROBLADING AND TATTOOING/PERMANENT COSMETICS?
Microblading is a semi- permanent cosmetic which allows you versatility going forward. You will be able to adjust your brows as needed while looking natural. Plus, no more filling in!
3. WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE PRICE?
The price includes the initial consultation, the first procedure . 6-8 week touch up are $50
4. WHAT IS AN ENHANCEMENT SESSION?
The enhancement session is 4-6 weeks after the initial appointment. This is to allow the brows to heal, as well as to give the client time to get adjusted to their brows. At the enhancement session we will talk about if the client wishes to make any changes in regards to color, thickness, density etc. We will then touch up the brows according to those preferences.
5. WHAT HAPPENS DURING MY BROW TREATMENT?
During an initial consultation, we will discuss the treatment in its entirety and together decide on the most complimentary shape, color, thickness, and density that the client wishes to have. We will then, using high quality pigment, continue with the treatment.
6. HOW DO YOU CHOOSE THE BROW DESIGN?
We work together to find a shape that works for your face shape and coloring. I also ask to bring in pictures of brows that you like. The brow design will follow your natural hair patterns to provide you with brows that look natural and complimenting.
7. HOW LONG WILL MY BROWS LAST FOR?
This can vary from client to client. It can last from 12- 18 months with proper care. If needed, there is a Color Boost session available at 6 months after your treatment to maintain freshness. Medications and face products can change the durability.
8. DOES IT HURT?
A numbing cream is applied before and during the appointment to ensure that it is a comfortable experience. You will feel pressure and might feel it as a little scratchy.
