SHOULD I HAVE MY BROWS SHAPED BEFORE THE APPOINTMENT?

No. Please avoid all hair removal and let your eyebrows fill in as much as possible prior to your initial Flowy Brow appointment. DLD + artists customize each hair pattern design based on the clients natural brow shape, hair growth pattern, and skin undertones. The fuller your natural brows, the better!

SHOULD I ARRIVE WITH MY EYEBROWS DRAWN ON?

Sure. This helps to get an idea of how the client is used to envisioning themselves every day but that being said, just because we are used to seeing ourselves a certain way that does not mean that design is correct. Sometimes the shape we are used to is totally wrong and it is an adjustment to see ourselves with a new eyebrow shape. Please trust the process. DLD won’t steer you wrong.

GENERAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION

After care is key to the final appearance and longevity of your new brows. Improper care may result in fading of the eyebrows.

Please be aware that medications, health and skin conditions may affect your healed results. Different skin types, routines, metabolism, alcohol intake, and not following the aftercare instructions may also affect healed results.

Keep in mind: Different artist use different techniques and advise different after care. Please follow the aftercare instructions advised by your personal Micropigmentation Artist.

- Pigment will appear natural immediately after.

- Your new eyebrows will go through several phases during the healing cycle. Depending on your body and age the entire healing process will take 21-45 days.

- The final look of your eyebrows will be apparent approximately 30 days after your procedure.

- If you have any unexpected problems with the healing of the skin such as swelling, fever, or green/yellow discharge contact your doctor immediately for further instructions.

THINGS TO AVOID AFTER

Avoid cardio and sweating for the first 24hrs (this means no hot saunas/steam room).

No swimming. This includes hot baths, pools, the ocean, and Jacuzzis.

Avoid driving in open air vehicles such as convertibles, boats, bicycles, or motorcycles.

Avoid drinking alcohol in excess, as it may lead to slow healing of wounds and increases risks of infection.

Avoid exposure to UV/UVA rays or chemicals as they have been known to cause a shift in color and premature fading. This includes sun tanning or artificial salon tanning and products.

Avoid tasks related to heavy household cleaning such as garage or basement cleaning until eyebrows are completely healed. This is because of airborne debris.

No lasers, chemical treatments, peelings, and/or any creams containing Retin-A or Glycolic acid on the face or neck (7-14 days).

CAN I FILL IN MY BROWS WHEN THEYRE PEELING?

Technically speaking yes. After 7 days from your initial appointment you can fill in your eyebrows. However, @DLDbrows suggests waiting until they are finished peeling before applying any product to the area.

WHEN SHOULD I COME BACK FOR MY TOUCH UP?

Retouch appointment is scheduled about 30-45 days after the initial appointment. Aftercare is crucial to the longevity and results of your new eyebrows. Improper care may result in fading of the eyebrows.

ADDITONAL INFORMATION

Please be aware that the result of the procedure is depending the following: Medication and health conditions, Skin Conditions – i.e. oily and poor skin, very dry/flaky skin, sun-damaged skin, lose or laxed skin, Natural skin undertones, Alcohol intake and smoking, general stress, immune system, poor diet and not following the aftercare instructions, may affect your healed results.

Antacids, thyroid and anxiety medications have been reported as interfering with permanent makeup either by affecting retention or shifting the pigment to an undesirable tone.

Remember, everything we eat, and drink has its own chemical structure and the electron ends that are unattached or free, may get attached to other compounds inside the body forming a new molecule that may show a different color spectrum. With that info, an educated client may have better expectations and know that she / he may need more frequent adjustments that others. The better condition your skin is in, the better the final result will be. Mature clients may need an additional one to two weeks healing for the final results to appear. The better you take care of your skin and protect it from UV rays, the better the outcome and lifespan of the micropigmentation procedures.

DOES IT HURT

Pretty hurts. LOL JK., clients claim little to no pain during the first pass. Second and third pass are completed after a topical anesthetic has been applied.

WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS OF THE PIGMENTS?

DLD mainly uses Tina Davies I♥️INK Pigments.

The ingredients are a combination of pigments, glycerin, witch hazel, aqua, rosin, benzyl alcohol, and isopropyl alcohol. It is gamma-ray sterilized, vegan and cruelty-free. Please see our Pigment MSDS for Tina Davies I♥️INK full ingredient listings.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MICROBLADING AND FLOWY BROW?

Micro-blading best for normal to dry skin types is done using a handheld blade made up of multiple tiny needles to scratch the skin with pigment. Over time the skin compresses to the “scratch” and gets smaller and smaller until it fades away. Lasting 6-12 months.

Flowy Brow is a universal technique which injects pigment into the skin using a tiny nano needle. Strokes are sparser and more natural in comparison to the hair stroke pattern of Micro-blading. Machine hair strokes (nano stroking) is less invasive and causes less trauma to the skin. Less trauma to the skin results with longer lasting results. (for most skin types)

WILL MY BROWS FADE RED, ORANGE, OR PURPLE OVERTIME?

NO, because they are high-quality ingredients, have high lightfastness and concentration. They will only become a lighter version of the original color(s). -https://tinadavies.com/pages/faq

CAN I COVER OLD MICROBLADING OR PMU WITH FLOWY BROW?

DLD Brows suggests that old pigment should be faded by a minimum of 50% to hide or cover up the original pigment successfully.

LIP BLUSH: FAQ

Yes and No

Lip Blushing enhances the natural lip color and shape. During the appointment Jayna maps the lips according to their natural shape. In some cases, the shape can be tweaked slightly to the clients preference (however, the shape can not extend past the border of the lips). Lip Blushing adds an appearance of fullness and definition by evening out the color of the lips.

No. Each clients natural lips need to be assessed at the time of the appointment. We’d love for you to bring your favorite lip product with you to share what characteristics you love about it, but please avoid wearing it.

Wearing colored lip products prior to the appointment can stain the lip and create the appearance of a false undertone which can misguide the pigment selection process.

LIP NEUTRALIZATION: FAQ

WHAT IS LIP NEUTRALIZATION?

Lip Neutralization is a specialized treatment series for cool or dark lips.

We neutralize the darkness based on the natural color of the lip tissue to create a natural result. Each client is unique. Each client requires a specialized approach to reach their goals.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LIP NEUTRALIZATION?

Smudge Proof — Lip Neutralization wont smudge through any activities. Eating, drinking, kissing, etc. No more lipsticks + lip tints necessary to reapply and repurchase.

Long Lasting — Lip Neutralization typically lasts 2-3 years depending on the clients care routing + maintenance.

Definition — Lip Neutralization provides a well-defined lip line while adding an effect of fullness to the lips.

Natural — Lip Neutralization enhances the natural lip color. A unique pigment mix is created for each client based off of their natural undertones, ensuring their Lip Blush will suit them perfectly.

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE THE COLOR?

At Atelier Rouge, a custom color is mixed for each client. To create the perfect color, each clients lips are assessed under studio lighting. Here, Jayna determines the natural undertone, hue, saturation, value, and temperature of the lips.

For Lip Neutralizations, Jayna examines the presence of eumelanin and phenomelanin, and how the two of these combine to present the hue of the lips. All of these factor into determining the necessary opacity and temperature needed from pigments. Jayna mixes the best pigments to enhance the color of the clients natural lips.

Proper Lip Neutralization requires EXTENSIVE knowledge of color theory. During the first appointment, the primary focus is “shifting” the coolness or darkness that we are neutralizing. The undertone, hue, saturation, value, and temperature of the tissue being neutralized tells Jayna what pigments are necessary to combat the darkness/coolness.

Depending on the client, it is likely that a second appointment of “shifting” the hue of the tissue will be required. We typically see that the third appointment is when Jayna begins using Lip Blush techniques, reaching the clients goals.

Mixing Lip Blush pigments is color theory intensive. Though Jayna applies her education of modern color theory to each clients mix, clients may still participate by requesting specific characteristics for their mix. For examples, some clients may want an bright lip while others love a soft look.

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER MY NEUTRALIZATION APPOINTMENT?

Atelier Rouge gives neutralization clients a 6 month healing period. During these 6 months, the tissue goes through many phases.

For the first week after the neutralization appointment, the lips will appear bright.

Lip Neutralization clients typically have a high presence of eumelanin in the lip tissue. Eumelanin is a brown-black pigment that is the most common form of melanin. During this 6 month period, we can expect the lips to get darker before the color truly starts to bloom and shift. Jayna often compares this experience to getting a pimple — often times with clients with a high presence of eumelanin, when a pimple or scab heals, it appears as a dark spot prior to lightening back up. This same occurrence happens with Lip Neutralizations.

At the end of the 6 month period, the darkness will lighten back up to a certain extent, and then another neutralization session will follow based on these results.

WHEN SHOULD I COME BACK FOR MY TOUCH UP?

The included retouch appointment is scheduled about 6 months after the initial appointment. Rescheduling the touch up appointment for 8+ months after the initial appointment will result in an additional fee.

TATTOO: FAQ

WHEN CAN I REMOVE THE BANDAGE?

We recommend waiting one to two hours before removing the bandage to allow initial healing.

HOW SHOULD I CLEAN MY NEW TATTOO?

Wash your tattoo gently 3-4 times a day with warm water and a mild antibacterial soap (like Dial or Provon). Pat it dry with a clean, soft cloth or paper towel and let it air out for 20 minutes before applying ointment.

WHAT KIND OF OINTMENT SHOULD I USE?

Apply a thin layer of ointment like Vitamin A&D or Aquaphor to keep the tattoo moist, not soaked.

Wipe away any excess with a paper towel.

After 3 days, switch from ointment to an unscented moisturizer (like Eucerin or Lubriderm)

Twice a day for two weeks. Avoid lotions with fragrance or color.

DO I HAVE TO KEEP AN OINTMENT ON MY TATTOO WHILE ITS HEALING?

Moisturizing helps prevent scabbing and promotes a thin healing membrane. This membrane will peel naturally, similar to a sunburn.

CAN I SHOWER NORMALLY?

Avoid long showers or baths for 2 weeks.

Short showers are best, and soaking in pools, hot tubs, or saunas is strictly prohibited.

WHAT IF MY TATTOO ITCHES?

Itching is normal during healing, but resist scratching or picking! This can irritate the tattoo and cause scarring.

WHEN CAN I GO SWIMMING OR IN THE SUN?

Avoid swimming or sun exposure for 2 weeks.

Sunburns can severely damage a new tattoo and lead to fading. Wait until your tattoo is fully healed before sun exposure and always use high-quality sunscreen afterward.

CAN I WEAR TIGHT CLOTHING AFTER?

Loose, breathable clothing is recommended to avoid irritation.

CAN I SHAVE OVER MY NEW TATTOO?

Wait at least 2 weeks before shaving over your tattoo.

Use a NEW gentle razor and shaving cream to avoid damaging the healing skin.
