Brows & Permanent Makeup FAQ

How long does brow lamination last?

Usually 3 to 4 weeks.

Do I need a touch-up after permanent makeup?

Yes. A touch-up is needed 4 to 6 weeks after the first procedure, because the skin never holds 100% of the pigment. How much stays is different for everyone, and your artist will tell you what your brows need. Touch-ups are paid separately: $250 for brows and $250 for lips.

How often should I refresh my permanent makeup?

About every 2 to 3 years, depending on how much pigment stays and how bold you want your brows to look.

Why do my brows look so dark right after the procedure?

The color can look intense for the first few days. As the skin heals it flakes, and the shade gets softer. We judge the final result only after full healing.

How do I care for my brows after permanent makeup?

Day 1. Gently cleanse your brows with your usual mild product, micellar water without acids, or just warm water. This keeps the skin soft and prevents irritation.

From day 3. Apply a thin layer of Vaseline 2 to 3 times a day for about 5 days. It protects the skin and keeps the area moisturized while it heals.

Days 5 to 10. You may see light peeling. It can start a little earlier or later, and that is normal. Do not pick or scratch the flakes, or you can lose the color.

Try not to touch your brows with your hands while they heal.

After 1 month. Once the peeling is gone, the color looks lighter. This is when we do the touch-up, 4 to 6 weeks after the first procedure.
