WHAT ARE THE MAIN BENEFITS OF OMBRÉ BROWS?
- Great for any skin type.
- Last longer, usually up to 5 years.
- Less invasive, less pain & bleeding.
- Your eyebrow will look fuller, more defined as well as dramatic.
If you have had Ombré Brow treatment previously (from another artist), the final results may not completely hide the previous work. You may need multiple appointments and treatments for the best results.
If you are having an MRI in the future, you must tell the technician that you have been tattooed with iron oxide pigments.

AFTER CARE INSTRUCTIONS & TIPS
How you take care of your brows after an Ombré Brow treatment can greatly impact how your brows look – and how long your results last.
For the long-lasting, optimal results, follow these important after care instructions:
- At least 3 hours after your appointment and right before you go to bed, blot away any fluid secretions to prevent excessive scabbing.
- During the scabbing period (the first 2 to 3 weeks after treatment), keep scabs dry, moisturizing just enough to keep them “flexible.” The longer scabs remain, the better the color will set.
- Within the first two weeks following treatment, clean your eyebrows at least twice a day. Make sure you have clean hands and use a clean cotton pad and water to gently cleanse the brows. Next, apply the ointment you get from our salon to your clean brows.
- Reduce residual pain and swelling by taking over-the-counter pain medications and/or applying a clean ice pack (wrapped in a clean towel) to the brows.
Here’s what you should NOT do after an Ombré Brow treatment:
- DO NOT let your eyebrows stay wet or soak in water for long periods of time. You DO NOT want the scabs to get soggy.
- DO NOT use harsh cleansers, creams or products on your eyebrows for at least 10 days.
- DO NOT apply makeup to your eyebrows within the first 14 days. Makeup can prevent proper healing, causing irritation and excessive scabbing.
- DO NOT pick or scratch at scabs or dry skin on or near your eyebrows. Let them fall off naturally.
- DO NOT tan and limit your sun exposure for 3 to 4 weeks after the treatment.
- DO NOT engage in exercise or activities that will cause heavy sweating for the first 10 days after treatment. Salt will draw out the pigment.
- DO NOT get facials, Botox, chemical treatments and/or microdermabrasion for 4 weeks following treatment.
