You cant have your eyebrows tattooed when you are pregnant or exclusively breastfeeding. However, once your little one is on solids and is only substituting breastfeeding, it becomes a personal preference to you and I am happy to tattoo them if you would like them done or wait til you have completely stopped.

Try to avoid cleansers, makeup, sweating, swimming or direct water over the brows for 5 - 7days. Apply the aftercare cream morning and night for the first week. You only need a small amount and a good tip is to apply before your shower when washing your hair to protect from the water. It will be 2-3 weeks before the true colour appears after healing. If the colour is too light or patchy we can fix that at your touchup appointment. This is what the 6-8 week appointment is for. Make sure you don't pick or scratch off any scabs through the healing process.

There is no direct downtime in which you will be red, swollen etc. Just a bit tender. Healing, consists of some scabbing or peeling, can take up to 2 weeks to heal. Then 3 weeks for the true colour to appear. The aftercare instructions given should be followed to ensure your eyebrows heal accordingly.

Topical numbing cream needs to be purchased from any chemist and applied 1hr before your appointment. Please come with freshly washed hair, minimal makeup and avoid coffee the morning of your appointment, fish oil tablets and asprin 48hrs before your appointment.

After the initial session a follow up session needs to be done 6-8 weeks after that to perfect the brows. Once you have had them done a yearly touchup done 12-18months is recommended to keep the colour fresh, this is done as a single treatment.

A full on consultation is done as part of the actual tattooing procedure. It is a good idea to do some research and have a look at some different styles of brows before you come but the correct procedure for you will be determined by your skin type and brow type. You just book for the first session and then we decide on the day from the consultation.

I allow 2.5hrs for the appointment to go through full consultation, colour and shaping. This is also to allow for before and after photos to be done and so the appointment isn't rushed.

For the following 48hrs there will be some swelling and discomfort. Aftercare cream must be applied and be careful to not get the area wet. You will have little crust dots that will be present for about 5 days.
