Important points to note
-
Once your brows are healed, it is recommended that you always wear an SPF of 50 on them to avoid discolouration and achieve maximum longevity.
-
Your brows will need to be maintained with regular top-up appointments, these can be anything from 1-2 years after getting the brows done.
-
Approximately 2 weeks after the brows are done they can look very faint and patchy, this is totally normal and just a part of the healing process. The colour will not be fully developed until approximately 8 weeks from your appointment.
