BE PREPARED FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT
BEFORE EYEBROWS
-
Do not tweeze, wax, or dye brows for several weeks prior.
You can remove the strays but leave some hair so that I can
have the opportunity to shape them. Electrolysis should not
be done for a week prior or for at least 2 weeks following. -
No Botox or fillers. All fillers must dissipate before we can tattoo your brows.
BEFORE EYELINER
-
NEVER WEAR LASH EXTENSIONS TO AN
-
REMOVE CONTACTS PRIOR TO SESSION.
-
If you wear prescription glasses, please bring
them to the session. You will need to wear them
home after the procedure. -
Do not wear contact lenses for about 48 hrs after.
-
Bring sunglasses to wear home. Eyes will be light sensitive.
-
Do not dye or perm lashes for 2 days prior.
-
Do not use an eyelash curler for about 10 days after the
procedure. -
Purchase NEW mascara.
-
If you have had any type of eye surgery, consult with the
physician about how long you should wait before having a
permanent eyeliner procedure. Some physicians are giving
a 2 month ok after cataract, lasik, and blepharoplasty.
BEFORE LIPS
-
If you've ever had cold sore/ fever blister (even 1) You will need to ask your doctor for an antiviral prescription such as Zovirax or
Valtrex to help prevent an outbreak during your healing
process. Physicians usually instruct usage for a 7-10 day
course, beginning 3-4 prior to procedure. -
If you are unable to get a prescription, you may pick up a
supplement called Lysine at any nutritional store. Take 1000-
2000 mg of lysine daily for a week or two prior and following
your procedure.
-
If you have had any type of lip surgery, consult with the
physician about how long you should wait before having a
permanent makeup procedure on the lips. -
Most physicians are giving a 3 week OK after lip filler
injections like collagen or Restylane. BUT JUST BE AWARE
THAT LIPS THAT HAVE BEEN INJECTED MY RESIST
RETENTION OF COLOR. Many Permanent makeup artists
have noticed poor color retention in lips that have received
collagen injections within the previous 6 months, longer for
restylane. We won't know ON YOU, until we try though. -
It is always best to have Permanent Makeup PRIOR to Lip
Filler, if possible, because this is your "permanent" state. -
If the lip surgery involves an incision (like a lip implant), the
incision needs to mature about 1 year before tattooing on
top of it. -
If you have tongue piercings or wear dentures, this may
increase risk of getting bacterial and/or fungal infection
from the mouth to the lips. -
Silvadene ointment used on lips helps fight both bacterial
and fungal problems. -
DO NOT USE WHITENING TOOTHPASTE AFTER A LIP
PROCEDURE... it could bleach out the lip pigment. -
PLEASE BE AWARE, THAT IF YOU HAVE LIP FILLER - THERE IS
A CHANCE OF PIGMENT MIGRATION. SO ALWAYS DO YOUR
PERMANENT COLOR, FIRST.
READY TO SCHEDULE?
CONSULTATION
You may pre-book a consultation appointment if you have additional questions that you would like answered before committing to booking your service. If you have not already filled out your paperwork online I will have you do so at this appointment. We will discuss your image, expectations, preferences and personal needs, to see how I can best serve you. Consultations last about 30 minutes. On the day of your service appointment we will discuss and decide on color and shape.
SCHEDULING FEE/DEPOSIT
A $50 deposit is required to book your service appointment. This fee will be applied toward the procedure cost. Missed appointments will result in a forfeited deposit. An additional deposit will need to be paid to reserve subsequent appointments.
PAYMENT OF SERVICES
Payment in full (minus scheduling fee) is due the day of your service appointment. You may pay at the beginning or end of the session, your choice. By the end of the session, you may be tired and you will just want to get home.
PHOTOS: Before and After shots will be taken for your file. By
signing our Client Consent Form, you will be agreeing to give us
permission to use your photos on our website(s), advertising, or any
other publication that serves our needs. However, we respect your
wishes to remain anonymous if you let us know in advance of the
photographing process.
WHAT TO WEAR
Pigment can sometimes splash. While most pigment colors will come out in the wash it is better to be safe than sorry, so don't wear your favorite items to the appointment. The air conditioner can make the room feel quite chilly. Bring socks and a sweater, just in case.
PAIN, ANXIETY, AND OTHER MEDICATIONS
You should ask your doctor if there are medications that you can take, such as Benedryl, Tylenol, Xanax or Valium prior to this procedure to help you relax or control discomfort If you feel you need to. Tylenol is ok but no ibuprofen, aleve, naproxin, asprin, ect.
Never (and I mean NEVER!) take sleeping pills prior to your
procedure. They will NOT help you "relax"! While you might become
sleepy, you could also become combative... and start swatting me
away from your face in your sleep.
TOPICAL NUMBING
Before we touch a needle to your skin a topical will be applied. During the numbing process you get to just lay back and relax. Once the procedure is started, additional topical will be applied as needed to help control discomfort. Although every person's pain tolerance is different, almost every client agrees that the procedures are much more tolerable than originally anticipated.
AFTERCARE
An aftercare kit, with instructions, will be given to you at your procedure appointment. Instructions are also outlined in your paperwork.
