Each tenchcian allows a different amount of time this ranges from 2 - 2.5 hours for the initial appointment, the tattooing part of the procedure lasts roughly 45-60 minutes.
Client must avoid intense gym sessions for roughly one week, due to the production of salt produced in the skin which will work against the healing process. We also advise clients to avoid putting anything on their brows for roughly one week and avoid picking the dead skin from their brows. There will be a period roughly day 3-8 where the brows will crisp up and scab like a normal wound. So book your treatment when you do not have a special occasion for at least 2 weeks post treatment.
We advise clients to book there brow, lip or eyeliner procedure at east 2 months prior to a holiday, or 1 month post a holiday. The client will need to allow time for the brows to heal and also to have their top up session to be performed and given time to heal.
We offer complimentary top up sessions 4 - 8 weeks after their initial treatment. We also offer top ups throughout the year which vary in price depending on how long it has been left since your last session.
Our consultations are performed the same day as the treatment. We go through a medical history, client consent form, treatment plan and then discuss the clients natural brows and desired look. We can look at photos of the techniques we can offer, before then going on to draw up the brows and carry out the treatment.
We match up colours to our clients eyebrows to create a look that is natural and as close to their natural brow hair as possible. We use the renowned natural pigment brand 'Permablend' by Tina Davies which come in a variety of colours from greys, to soft blondes and ebony browns.
We can either send out a patch test to our clients or clients can come in and have a patch test to help reduce any worries of reacting to the inks we use. Clients will need to allow 24 hours between patch testing and their procedure time. Please understand that patch testing can only give a reading for the past 24 hours, it is inaccurate in showing whether you may have an allergy in the future.
