10 Essential Tips Before Getting an Eyebrow Tattoo
Are you considering getting an eyebrow tattoo done? It is a good idea, especially if you have pale, hard-to-define eyebrows. Tattooing removes the need for gels, pencils, and powders to make them look fuller. Moreover, there are many tattooing options available to obtain darker, well-defined brows.
Depending on your preference, you can opt for a semi-permanent or permanent eyebrow tattoo. Both are equally safe and deliver stunning results. This is why many people are getting this procedure. However, getting ready for it involves much more than selecting an artist. There are several aspects you need to take care of. That’s why, we’ve compiled a list of 10 important things to consider before tattooing your brows.
- Look for a Trustworthy Tattoo Artist: The first step is finding a competent eyebrow tattoo specialist. Choose an artist who has a solid reputation and working style that you prefer. Moreover, ask for before-and-after pictures of their previous clients. It will give you a better sense of their expertise.
- Schedule an Initial Consultation: Book an appointment after finalising the specialist you’re interested in working with. Schedule a session to understand the procedure and other details like the eyebrow tattoo cost. This is also a good time to discuss the potential risks, if any.
- Ask for a Small Patch Test: Speaking of side effects, get a small patch test done during the initial consultation. Some people have scar-prone or sensitive skin. The assessment will determine how your skin may react. This is important to prevent negative effects after getting a permanent or semi-permanent eyebrow tattoo.
- Decide on the Brow Style: Research and finalise the brow style you want. You can either have a natural or a stronger look, but you can’t have both. So, decide on a style before the appointment.
- Don’t Use Retinoids: Retinoids increase your skin’s vulnerability to bleeding while getting a tattoo. This affects the skin’s healing process and may lead to undesirable side effects. We recommend avoiding retinol-infused skincare products for two to three weeks before the appointment.
- Stay Out of the Sun: Prolonged exposure to the sun prior to the procedure is a big no. This is because UVA and UVB rays can alter the skin’s surface. This affects pigmentation and also hinders the healing process.
- Shape Your Brows: If you want to shape, tweeze, or wax your brows, a gap of 7 days between both appointments is advisable. It will help the skin get ready for the specialist to work on.
- Skip Certain Beverages and Food: Avoid caffeine, aspirin or alcohol on the day before the treatment. Since they thin the blood, it raises the risk of bleeding during the procedure. So, you need to do everything possible to reduce the chances of bleeding. On an additional note, drink lots of water to keep yourself hydrated before the permanent makeup eyebrows treatment.
- Bring an Umbrella or a Brimmed Hat: Your brows need to be kept dry and hidden from the sun after the treatment. Having these items on you before the appointment is advantageous. You must not expose the eyebrows to rain or sunshine for at least 72 hours.
- Be Prepared for Rigorous Aftercare: The healing process after getting permanent or semi-permanent eyebrows is crucial. The area around your brows will get red and puffy. It may also be a little uncomfortable for some days. However, you need to strictly follow the recommended post-treatment care.
Additionally, here are a few tips from the experts at Destiny Brows Cosmetic Tattoo & Laser to accelerate the healing process:
- Follow the instructions of the eyebrow feathering specialist
- Make sure your brows don’t get wet for at least 2 weeks
- Refrain from activities like working out or swimming
- Avoid applying foundation for a minimum of 72 hours
