Checklist for All Permanent Makeup Procedures

Our goal is always to ensure that you receive the best possible results from your treatment. This is heavily reliant on your skin and eyebrow area must be healthy, strong, non-sensitive, and non-irritated. It also requires that you follow appropriate pre-care and post-care instructions. It is important so you may understand what is to be expected.  Let's make sure you are a good candidate for microblading and permanent makeup!

RESTRICTIONS

To avoid 3 days previous the treatment:

  • Tint your eyebrows.

 

To avoid 1 week previous the treatment:

  • Pick/tweeze/wax/perform electrolysis.

  • Take Fish Oil, Gingko Biloba or Vitamin E (they are natural blood thinners).

  • Retinol/Retin-A (it will cause the skin to bleed).

  • Do not schedule this procedure within one week prior to a water vacation.

Additional Information for Lip Blush Treatments

​

For the Lip Blush procedure please follow the checklist for all permanent makeup procedures as well as these additional pre-care instructions:

 

 

  • 1 week prior start using a good lip conditioner/mask/balm several times a day. We want to get the lips in a great condition where they are healthy and hydrated!

 

  • You can gently exfoliate the lips for one week prior to your appointment. You can either buy a gentle scrub or make your own using 1 drop of coconut oil & 1 teaspoon of sugar to create your own scrub. (Do not over scrub the lips, we are just trying to gently remove any excess dry skin.) Always follow the scrub up with a lip conditioner/balm.

 

  • If you suffer from cold sores in the past, it is advised that you consult with your doctor prior to the lip blush treatment. Many clients can avoid a cold sore post-procedure by taking Valtrex (prescription) 1 dose on the day of the procedure and 1/day for 3 days following the appointment. L-Lysine (a vitamin supplement) is also helpful to boost your immune system and promote faster healing.

 

  • Many clients have had lip fillers and this is okay. I suggest having the lip blush procedure at least 4 weeks after the lip injections have been administered.

ALL COSMETIC PROCEDURES ARE MULTI-SESSION PROCESSES
An initial application is incomplete until after a follow-up appointment, which must be scheduled approximately 6-8 weeks after your initial appointment. You must schedule a follow-up appointment to a new/initial procedure when it is done within 6-8 weeks of the initial procedure. However, in the case of a cancellation with less than 48 hours notice or a no-show, all scheduled session deposits will be considered forfeited and any following appointments will be charged the normal weekly or monthly rate. Please, plan ahead and allow enough time to have the service completed.

​

WHILE YOUR SKIN HEALS, BE PREPARED FOR THE COLOR INTENSITY OF YOUR PROCEDURE TO BE SIGNIFICANTLY LARGER, SHARPER, BRIGHTER, OR DARKER than what is expected for the final outcome. This is a normal and expected result of the application and healing process. The healing process will take a number of days to complete, depending on how quickly the outer layer of your skin exfoliates and the new skin regenerates to take its place.

Since delicate skin or sensitive areas may swell slightly or redden, some clients feel it best not to make social plans for a day or two following any procedure.
​
Please be aware that in order to ensure we choose the right color pigment, we may need to remove any foundation or concealer you are wearing to see the true undertone of your skin. You may choose to bring your makeup to touch up after your procedure.

In order to provide all of our clients with great service and the best experience, OUR POLICIES are as follows:

CLIENT-ONLY IN THE PROCEDURE ROOM:

Though a friend or family may accompany you to your appointment, we have learned it is best that they do not sit-in on your procedure. It is important the artist is able to have their full focus on you, the client. Friends and family tend to be a distraction for both the client and artist.

CHILDREN, TODDLERS AND BABIES.

Though we love children, toddlers and babies, we must kindly ask that you do not bring them with you to your appointment. Unfortunately, they are a distraction to the artist. Thank you for your understanding.

CANCELLATION POLICY:

Microblading and permanent makeup is a time-intensive service. In booking your appointment, we are reserving a designated amount of time specifically for you. If you need to cancel for any reason, we require that you cancel at least 48 hours prior to the start of your appointment time so that we may be able to offer this time to another client.

PLEASE NOTE: A £50 NON-REFUNDABLE BOOKING FEE IS REQUIRED AND WILL BE APPLIED TO YOUR SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT. IF YOU CANCEL LESS THAN 48 HOURS NOTICE OR MISS YOUR APPOINTMENT, YOUR BOOKING FEE WILL BE FORFEITED.

Follow-up appointments: After the initial treatment, your body will start to heal itself. The healing process will include some fading. Therefore, the brow perfecting session is necessary for semi-permanent lasting results. 

TARDINESS:

In the event that a client is more than 30 minutes late, the procedure may be cancelled, and the non-refundable booking fee will still apply, as I am not able to sell this time to another client.

RIGHT TO REFUSE TREATMENT:

Though it is extremely rare, we reserve the right to refuse treatment for the following reasons:

  • Undisclosed skin condition (including sunburn/suntan).

  • Under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

  • Any behaviour which, in the opinion of the artist, work might be compromised or their ability to work safely and comfortably toward the desired results.
