▪️ Do not consume any alcohol beverages, or caffeine (coffee - even decaf, tea, energy drinks) or eat high-sodium foods, high sugar foods, refined carbohydrates, spicy foods, and smoke cigarettes for 72 hours prior and 72 hours after your appointment. It will cause the skin to irritate and bleeding will reduce the pigment absorption as blood will push out the colors and can also slow down the healing process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Ombre brows?

- Ombre brows tattoo creates a soft, filled brow similar to the look of makeup. The tails of the brow are darker and fade into a light beginning to the brow, giving a perfect Ombre makeup affect. The result will be waterproof, smudge-proof and completely natural that can last 1-3 years.

- The procedure takes roughly about 2-3 hours, sometimes more sometimes less.
- Before tattooing, I will create a custom shape that will give the illusion of symmetrical brows and best shape to compliment your face and since I free hand my work, this process alone can take about 1-2 hours.
Does it Hurt?
- Permanent cosmetic enhancement is an advanced form of tattooing. Needles are used to inject ink into the the skin.
- While some clients may not feel any pain and fall asleep during the procedure, individual’s pain tolerance may have different experiences. Topical anesthetics can be applied during the treatment to alleviate sensation, however your skin will be red and you may experience pain, feel sore, or swollen for the first few days after Getting it done. This is the most common feeling, and it’s caused by the needle going over the same spot multiple times.

- Please note - Time frame of the healing process vary per Individual. How fast your skin heals will be slightly different for each person. It depends on many factors such as your age, overall health, skin type, and if you follow the pre-care and aftercare instructions.
How would you know which shape looks good on me?
- Consultation is done on the same day as your appointment
- I always recommend clients to go with their natural brow shape. What you're born with is usually what looks best on your face shape.
- Yes, it is true that our natural brows are asymmetrical. Our bone structure can be more slanted, arched, and shorter than the other. Tissue volume naturally varies from the left side to the right side of the face.
- Before tattooing, I will create a custom shape that will give the illusion of symmetrical brows and best shape to compliment your face but please understand 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 another person’s 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.
