Aftercare

Beauty comes at a price. The price you pay for flawless brows is four to six weeks giving your brows extra care and attention to ensure they heal thoroughly.

Keep Your Brows Clean and Dry

For the first seven days, you should avoid putting makeup, soap, serums, lotions, and water on your brows. This includes while you’re showing or getting ready.

After that, you can start applying an aftercare ointment or serum on your brows with a cotton swab and clean hands.

You’ll also need to keep out of the wind and sun for the first two weeks. This doesn’t mean you can’t touch grass, but you can’t let your hair down in a convertible, cycle, or go sun tanning.

When the four weeks are over, your grid will be full of close-ups because it’s time to enter your IG baddie era with fleek brows courtesy of our #microbladingservice.
