Ombre , Nano or Combo?
Which technique fits your style? Which should you choose?
If you like the natural look, go for nano as this procedure mimics hair strokes. Nano will create the look of fuller natural brows. When healed, the hair strokes will be soft and blend right into the hairs you have.
If you like the powdery make-up look, ombré is the right choice for you. The ombré technique is when the beginning (bulb) of the brows are light then gradually gets darker as it goes to the tail to create a gradient look. No hair stokes.
If you like both, go for a combination of the two! Combo brows uses the nano technique in the bulb (front) of the brows with ombré shading starting in the middle and continuing to the end of the brow.This will create a full and natural look that mimics hair strokes at the bulb with a defining shaded look through out the rest of the brow.

3 days prior to the procedure
✦ No waxing, brow threading, or tinting

✦✦ Please note that you will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.
(Failure to follow these instructions will affect the outcome of your skin and blood on the day of your appointment. For the best results, please follow accordingly.)
What to expect
DAY 1
✦Eyebrows will appear thick and dark.
✦Eyebrow area will be sensitive and tender.
✦Swelling and redness will subside within 24 hours. Your eyebrow color may also have a reddish tone but this will disappear in the next following days.
✦One eyebrow may be slightly different from the other. It could be caused by how differently each side of your face swells. Please give swelling time to subside.
✦Keep in mind, eyebrows can never be perfectly symmetrical because our face is not symmetrical. (Symmetry DOES NOT EXIST as eyes, nostrils, ears are not symmetrical.) As your brow artist, I will try to make your eyebrows as similar as possible but you must consider that you may have more muscle movement on one side or one may be higher due to your bone structure. Moving it in general will make them look different.
DAY 2 - 3
✦Eyebrows will harden and the texture may appear raised as they begin to form scabs.
DAY 4-7
✦Extreme itchiness in the eyebrows. Please don't scratch.
✦Skin will begin to exfoliate and flake off slowly. DO NOT self-pick or pull off any flaking. This will cause premature pigment loss and create splotches in your eyebrows.
✦As the scabs naturally flake off, the skin underneath will appear very light. Please expect eyebrows to be 40-60% lighter after peeling and healing. Be aware that your initial session is only to lay a base to start the process. The complimentary touch-up will be to perfect and complete your eyebrows.
✦Color will need time to settle and will slowly reappear and take on more strength in the next 4-6 weeks.
✦Some unevenness of color is expected after peeling because different parts of the skin retains pigment differently. The touch-up session is to perfect and make adjustments for desired results. Results are not determined until the touch-up application is completed.
Please note:
If you bleed excessively during the session(s), pigment will not completely absorb as your blood is pushing it out. Therefore your healed results may have sparse areas/uneven colors. I will try to do the best I can but I cannot control your body's natural reaction.
Healed pigment over current scar tissue will appear lighter or shiny.
After Care Instructions
Instructions:
✦DO NOT WET/SWEAT eyebrows until they have completely peeled.
✦DO NOT TOUCH your eyebrows with bare fingers as they may have bacteria on them which can cause infection.
✦Keep your brows moist with a light coating of ointment until fully peeled. When applying ointment, be sure to use a clean cotton swab. If your eyebrows begin to LEAK, you are applying too much ointment.Let your eyebrows air dry completely then reduce amount of ointment. KEY: Skin must be able to breathe.
✦Please do not traumatize (rub, pick, or cleanse) your eyebrows with any type of soap or cleanser for until they have completely peeled. Quick and light rinses with only water are okay, but ONLY with a light coating of ointment over brows to keep the water out.
✦Before showers gently apply a light coating of ointment with a clean cotton swab. After showers, lightly pat eyebrows dry and lightly reapply ointment.
✦No skin regiments or make-up on your eyebrows while they are healing.
✦No laser hair removal treatments close to the eyebrow region.
✦No sauna, jacuzzi, or swimming in chlorine pools or recreational bodies of water until eyebrows are completely healed.
✦Do not expose eyebrows to direct sunlight in the next 4 weeks for long periods.
✦ If there is *EXCESSIVE* swelling, redness, tenderness with elevated body temperature or purulent drainage from the procedure site, contact your physician as the area may be infected.
✦ If you are a blood donor, you may not give blood for 1 year following your permanent make-up procedure.
✦ Failure to follow these instructions may result in discoloration or pigment loss.
LONG TERM CARE
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE OF THE LONGEVITY OF RESULTS. Everyone’s results will vary due to skin type, lifestyle, how well they cared for their eyebrow tattoo during the healing process AND how well they care of their eyebrow tattoo in the months after.
After that, a yearly ‘Color Refresher’ is recommended to maintain your color’s integrity.
When eyebrows fade over time, they will look less defined and become faint in color.
