If you have a special event or vacation coming up that you want your brows or lips done for, it would be best to book your appointments well in advance any of those occasions. Of course, please speak to your artist so that they can give you personalized advice based on your specific situation.
Some things you would want to consider before scheduling your session:
Healing time: For brows, healing time is approximately 7-14 days, and for lips approximately 5-7 days including scabbing and peeling. During this time you will have to avoid excessive sweating, direct sun exposure, submerging in water, and applying skincare and makeup products on top and around the treatment area. Complete healing which entails the color fully blossoming or “coming back” may take several weeks.
Sun exposure and sweating: If you are going anywhere hot and sunny with newly tattooed brows or lips, it will affect the color and retention of the treated area.
Water contact: If you will be swimming on vacation with newly tattooed brows or lips it will prolong your healing process as submerging tattoos in water can dry out skin causing an increase of scabbing, flaking, and itching.
Touch up session: A second “perfecting” touch up after your first session will most likely be required to get to your desired results. This takes place around 6 weeks from your initial session. The same precare and aftercare information will apply for this session, though healing time may be reduced.
