Previous work done from another artist
If you have had your eyebrows previously done by someone else and are interested in a cover-up/re-work, you must bring this to my attention by sending me photos of your current brows for a consultation
DOES IT HURT?
Pain levels vary by person. Topical anesthetics for numbing is applied during the procedure to minimize any discomfort.
HOW CAN I PREPARE FOR MY BROW APPOINTMENT?
If you have an ideal shape and colour in mind, bring a few photos of the eyebrows to reference. If you don’t know what will look good on you, I can provide guidance during the consultation.
Fill in your eyebrows as you normally would as this will help us achieve your ideal shape.
If you regularly get your eyebrows: shaped, waxed, threaded or tinted, please do so at least 48 hours before your appointment so they do not interfere with the procedure.
If you plan to go on a vacation, it is recommended to plan your trip a minimum of 14 days after the procedure.
Avoid using blood thinning medication for a minimum of 48-72 hours prior to your appointment. This includes, but is not limited to: Vitamin E, Aspirin, Niacin, and Ibuprofen.
Do not consume ANY alcohol or caffeine (even decaf and teas) for at least 24-48 hours prior your appointment.
It is highly recommended that you avoid prolonged periods of sun exposure and tanning before and after your procedure. If you show up to your appointment with a tan or sunburn, you will need to reschedule and you will forfeit your deposit. As your skin exfoliates from the sunburn, it will take the pigment with it.
HOW CAN I PREPARE FOR MY LASH LIFT APPOINTMENT?
Recommended to not wear mascara for at least a minimum 24-48 hours before your appointment.
Please arrive to your appointment make-up free. Note that using makeup remover can result with residue left on the lashes. This may result in a half/non-lifted lashes. It is recommended to use a non oil based makeup remover.
If you wear contact lenses, you may want to refrain from wearing them during the procedure to be more comfortable
