Before
Pre-Procedure Instructions
Lindi needs to know if you have had previous permanent makeup done by a different artist. A consultation will be necessary before going forward. If you fail to tell us, she reserves the right to refuse service and your deposit will be forfeited.
Do not have a dark tan/sunburn on your face prior to your procedure. The tan/burn will interfere with the procedure and the heeling process.
Do not take aspirin, fish oil, niacin, vitamin E, and/or ibuprofen unless medically necessary 72 hours prior to appointment.
You have to be off Accutane for one year.
Avoid alcohol and caffeine the day prior and the day of the procedure. This will help minimize bleeding.
Getting a procedure during menstrual cycle can make you hyper-sensitive during procedure.
If you have oily skin, your brows will appear softer, more like powdered brows.
Do not have your brows tinted or waxed at least 72 hours prior to your procedure.
No chemical peels 60 days prior to your procedure.
Do not have any pimples, moles, blemishes, irritation of the skin of any kind, or any imperfections in or around the area of the procedure.
Do not exercise the day of the procedure.
Draw your brows in how you usually wear them when you come to your appointment.

After
Post Care Instructions before and after
For 14 days, frequently throughout the day apply coconut oil with a q tip, applicator, or clean finger to your brows. They need to be kept moist.
When it peels, flakes, or sheds, it heals! The color may appear extremely light; this is normal because the pigment takes a full thirty days to oxidize.
Do not pick, itch, scratch, touch, pull, rub, or tweeze the treated area at all. Let the scab naturally fall of. Doing any of the above actions can cause scarring.
Avoid the following for 14 days:
- Direct sun exposure or tanning. (tanning beds forever, they will remove every bit of color)
- Profuse sweating from exercise, light activity only.
- Sleeping on your face.
- Swimming, hot sauna, or Jacuzzi.
- No water, cleansers, creams, makeup or any other products on the treated area.
- Before showering, apply a layer of coconut oil to protect the treated area. Keep your face away from the showerhead.
Eyeliner only:
- No mascara for 14 days.
- Ice the first day is recommended, gently apply pressure to eyes, don't rub. You will have swelling for about 24 hours.
ANY ADDITIONAL WORK CANNOT BE DONE 4-6 WEEKS AFTER INITIAL APPOINTMENT. NO EXCEPTIONS.
REMINDER: TOUCH-UPS DO NOT COME WITH A FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENT. ANY ADDITIONAL WORK NEEDED WILL HAVE AN ADDITIONAL FEE.
