AFTER CARE
Stay out of sun for 24 hours after your session. Must wear a hat if you decide to be outdoors.
After 72 hours, apply a thin coat of ointment (that has been given to you by your artist) with a swab using light tapping motions morning and night for 7 days. You may also apply ointment before showers to help repel water from soaking into the scabs.
Avoid sweating for 7 days.
Must keep brows dry as much as possible.
Use a washcloth to wash your face to better avoid water on the brow. Do not let water run over your face in the shower.
Do not sleep on your side until brows have fully healed as this will cause you to rub your scabs off to early which will affect retention.
When areas start to flake, leave it. Do not pick, peel or pull the skin.
Until healing is complete: Keep your hands clean and avoid touching brow area.
