While some clients may accept the pigment and heal beautifully without a touch-up, most clients should expect to come back for a second session. On some rare cases, a third session may be needed to achieve the desired look. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO BOOK YOUR TOUCH UP SESSION WITHIN THE 6-12 WEEK MARK. Do not leave it for last minute as schedule books up quickly and you may miss your time frame. 📍Prices are subject to change without notice, however, we will honor the price your appointment was associated with upon booking (not in case of rescheduling). 📍We have the right to refuse service to anyone. 📍Mapping is discussed and worked on thoroughly to try and get the best fitting shape for each clients facial structure. Nobody’s face is totally symmetrical and you need to be realistic with your expectations. There is no point in trying to make the eyebrows identical even if I were to use stencil on your brows they will still look different due to our bone structure not being symmetrical. One brow bone will always dominate/protrude or be a little higher than the other also the side you sleep on plays a factor. We do not use the "P" word when doing Permanent Makeup. Sisters, NOT twins, is used universally in this field. If by 1.5hrs we cannot decide mutually on a good shape for you. We will NOT proceed and the rest of the brow service fee will not be due but deposit will not be refunded and if you later decide to rebook a new deposit is required. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. Are you certified? * Yes, I am a Certified Permanent Makeup Artist, Licensed Tattoo Artist & Licensed Esthetician. 2. What is the Ombre Eyebrow Tattoo? Instead of creating hair strokes eyebrows like Microblading, this technique is natural shading a gradient effect from the beginning of the brow to the end starting from light and fading to dark, giving your brow the sharp yet natural look. 3. What other services do you do? Lip Blush (also a tattoo), Brow wax, Tint and Lamination services. 4. Does it hurt? I get mixed reviews on pain. Everyone has a different level of sensitivity so topical anesthetics are applied before and during the treatment to alleviate any sensation or discomfort. Some clients naturally feel one brow sorer than the other. You will hear a scratch noise/sensation throughout. Music is usually played during the procedure, however feel free to bring your own earphones and music to distract you. 5. Is it safe? Absolutely. All supplies are disposable and those that are not like the machine are wrapped properly following DOH guidelines. 6. Will I be swollen? You might have a small amount of swelling but typically if all precare instructions are followed this does not happen. You might have slight redness around eyebrows but this would last about a day. 7. Will I need a touch up? Most likely. Within a week of your first treatment the color will fade significantly and over the next four to six weeks can continue to fade as much as 30-40%. This is considered an extremely positive occurrence as it allows you time to reflect on your shape and color. After this period your follow-up appointment is carried out. At this point any changes you would like to make are discussed as long as they are within reasoning. 8. How often do I need a touch up? In order to keep your eyebrow tattoo results looking fresh, we recommend a touch up every year but it is not necessary. All depends on how well you take care of the brows and how your skin metabolizes pigment. 9. How long does it last? It will last as long as it’s maintained. How long brows last will vary depending on your skin type by how well your skin takes in pigment during the session and how dark you are willing to go depending on the scenario. After a touch up, brows are expected to last from 1 to 3 years depending on the shade of choice you prefer, skin retention, time in the sun, medications and daily skin routines (more exfoliating products, faster the fade). 10. Why do I need a touch up if this is semi-permanent? Because color is implanted in the facial area there tends to be more fluid circulation than other parts of the body. Your face sees the most wear of any piece of you—exposure to the sun, food, facial products—the list goes on and on. All of these things cause permanent color to fade, this is why you need a touch up. 11. How long does it take? The procedure takes roughly about 3-3.5 hours, sometimes more sometimes less. This isn’t something that should be rushed. 12. Do I need to take a day OFF work? No. There’s no downtime associated with the treatment. Redness and swelling will calm down within an hour after. Your brows will appear darker initially, but not so dark that you will be prevented from your activities of daily living. 13. How long does it take to heal? Healing time varies from individual to individual. Usually, it takes about 7 to 14 days for the epithelial crust to form and slough off. Your skin will be considered healed after that happens. Then, the pigment takes some time to settle into the skin. A good month should pass before I consider the process complete. 14. What’s the process like? Eyebrow tattoo is a two-step treatment, consisting of an initial procedure and then a touch up between 6 to 12 weeks after. After taking your before photo, I will draw the brow design in pencil so you get an idea of shape and form. (Please note that nobody’s face is totally symmetrical and you need to be realistic with your expectations. There is no point in trying to make the eyebrows identical or match a photo of your favorite celebrities' eyebrows if your face shape looks nothing like theirs.) Once we have agreed on a final shape (ultimately it is your decision – but I will always voice my opinion on what I think suits you aesthetically) I will shape your eyebrows then we will decide on the color. During healing, it's normal to experience some pigment loss; this is why we have the touch up in place. 15. What can’t I do after the procedure? You are advised to keep the skin clean and dry - that means no swimming, sweating or otherwise getting the area wet; no tanning or prolonged sun exposure; no picking, peeling, scratching or rubbing the tattoo, this may result in a loss of color and scarring. You can still wash your hair and face and once they’re healed up, you treat them as your own. 16. How do I extend the life of the procedure? Your eyebrows will last longer if you apply sunblock often and avoid abrasive facial treatments in the brow area. 17. How will you choose my color? We go off based on your skin tone and your natural brow hair. Clients who are used to having no brows for a long time, can find this few weeks challenging. I usually advise clients who have no brows to start wearing pencil or brow shading for some time before the process so they get used to having a brow! 18. Do you have to shave off my own eyebrows? No. Every attempt is made to retain all natural hair and integrate it into the design of the permanent eyebrows. In some cases, where shaping of the natural brow is required, a few hairs here and there may need to be removed to create a clean and aesthetically pleasing result. Some clients may require trimming of the brow hairs if they are significantly long in order to properly shade. 19. I have heard some clients just do not retain pigment even after a few visits. Could this happen? Yes, it does happen and yes it's true! A third appointment is often set up so the client has the opportunity to return and I get the chance to review the work and sort out any (if any) tweaks that might need to be done. Oftentimes the clients cancel this apt as all is usually well, however there are the occasional few that may need one or two extra strokes to finish off the look. Some ladies' skin may react to the trauma of the tattooing, and the skin may try to push out the foreign body of pigment by producing an extreme scab, so they eventually fall off taking all the pigment with it. There is a condition called Pigment Allergy (PPD Allergy, a condition known by dermatologists) or Autoimmune disease symptoms (the client may not even be aware of it). The skin would have overreacted and become super sensitive to the pigment and reject it at any cost. 20. Can you guarantee your work? Unfortunately, I can't. How the skin will react is different for everyone and many factors are to be taken into consideration. Skin type, age, scarring, diet, stress levels, facial products used, medications, smoking, etc. all play a key role in your results, which is why it is important to know that more than one touch up may be required. I always make sure that your face is important to me and I will act in accordance with my experience and expertise to give you my absolute best. But there are no guarantees in this industry. Please think long and hard before you decide to go for it. 21. What if I don’t like it? Although Ombre shading tattoo is considered to be semi-permanent, the procedure does allow flexibility for color or shape change to some extent. However, I will work closely with you to ensure that you are satisfied with the proposed technique. I will communicate with you as much as possible throughout the procedure and show you things as we go along, so there’s very little room for error. If you do not like the decision you made, the Touch Up can be cancelled and the pigmented area naturally fades over time. If you aren’t 100% sure you would benefit from this procedure, please opt for more temporary options. -------------------------------------------Business Hours
