THE HEALING JOURNEY

DAY 1

  • They look warm in colour.

  • Bold and maybe a little intense if you’re not used to filling in your brows.

  • Clear, slightly yellowish liquid may seep from the area. This is lymphatic fluid. This is normal!

  • The tattoo has been applied to compensate for fading of 30-60%, so if they look darker than you normally wear your brows, stay calm, the colour will fade over the next 2-3 weeks.

  • Your brows may feel tender and have a slight burning/stinging sensation today.

 

DAY 2-4

  • A Little darker as the colour temporarily oxidises.

  • Still a little tender.

  • May even be a little bit thicker in texture than the day before.

 

DAY 5

  • Your brows may start to feel a little itchy from this point as a new layer of skin begins to form.

  • Avoid the temptation to scratch!

 

DAY 6-8

  • Scabbing/dry skin starting to appear

  • Do NOT pick!

DAY 9-14

  • The colour during these days may seem way too light, even grey and missing in spots. It may even seem as though it is disappearing altogether and you might feel like your skin didn’t take the pigment, but that’s not the case. It's all part of the process!

 

 

DAY 15-21

  • Healing is almost complete. You’re almost there!

  • The colour and definition can return at this point, provided you have not messed with your brows during healing. The colour is beginning to even out. However, you may still have some patches which can be topped up on your next visit 5-12 weeks later!
