Eyebrow Pre-Care Instructions

Updated: Sep 18, 2021


  • Arrive 30 minutes in advance before your appointment time for numbing process.


  • Coming with eyebrows filled in is preferred. We want to better understand your daily makeup routine.

  • Bring yourself a pair of earphones. Make yourself feel as comfortable as you can.

24 Hours prior to appointment:

  • Showering before your procedure is a good idea, since you will not be able to get your new eyebrows wet for 24 hours. This will allow your pores to open up for better pigment penetration.

  • Do not drink alcohol (i.e. wine, beer), coffee or any stimulants (i.e. energy drinks, tea, fat burners, electrolytes, etc.) This will thin your blood and make you bleed more during the procedure, especially with Microblading technique due to its invasiveness.


  • Do not take Aspirin/Advil or pain relieve meds, Vitamin B12, Vitamin E, Fish oil, etc. This will make you bleed more during the procedure. Bleeding too much can lead to difficulties in implanting the pigment, especially with Microblading technique due to its invasiveness.


2 Weeks prior or after to appointment:

  • Please wait 2 weeks after the brow procedure, if getting Botox/Filler on the forehead.

  • If getting Botox/Filler before the brow procedure, please allow 2 weeks for it to settle.

    • Please plan this in advance, last minute reschedule (less than 72 hours notice) will result a fee. Eyebrow procedure involves pressing and stretching the brow area, therefore Botox can still shift if not stable.

** As brow artists, we can enhance and balance the shape to "enhance" it. If you are looking to "correct" a significant asymmetry due to differences in bone structures, forehead muscles, etc. We recommend getting Botox before or after Microblading/Semi-Permanent Makeup Brows.


3-4 Weeks prior or after to appointment:

  • Chemical peel: Either get it 3-4 weeks before or wait for 3-4 weeks after brow procedure. The skin is too new and thin.

  • Tanning: Either get it 3-4 weeks before or wait for 3-4 weeks after brow procedure.

  • Retin--A or Retinol on the forehead area: Stop using 3-4 weeks prior to brow procedure, or wait for 4 weeks after.

  • Waxing or tinting: Either getting it 1 week before or wait for 2-3 weeks after.

  • Visitors will not be allowed in the room.

  • Please review the After care form for downtime before booking.
