Pain tolerance varies for each individual however, your technician will do their best to ensure the service is as comfortable as possible. A topical anesthetic cream will be used throughout the procedure.

Whilst most people have little to no problem throughout the process, you should expect a slight level of discomfort.

Following the pre appointment advice is crucial in being able to achieve the best possible results.

• Please come to your appointment with untamed brows, allowing your brows to grow out and be completely natural will allow your technician to design your brows from scratch. (Avoid tweezing/waxing/threading for 2 weeks minimum prior to your appointment).

• Avoid taking/using any skin or blood thinning medication/products (Blooding thinning medication, Vitamin A, Glycolic acids etc) for 2 weeks prior to your appointment.

• Avoid exercise, caffeine, alcohol, fish oil or blood thinners (Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Niacin) 48 hours prior to appointment. All of this can cause excess bleeding which can impact results and make the process messy and uncomfortable.

• Any injectables such as botox or fillers should be done either 2 weeks before or after appointment.

Kelaya Beauty will advise you of specific information regarding your topical anaesthetic gel however, you will need to purchase this yourself from our partnered compounding pharmacy. Please ensure you book your brow tattoo appointment at least 2 weeks in advance to ensure you have efficient time to purchase your numbing gel.

Your new ombre brows will take 7-10 days to heal. In this time it is extremely important for your long term results that you strictly follow the after care instructions.

• Ensure to keep your brows clean, like any wound within the first 24 hours there may be excess lymph fluid. It is important to get rid of any lymph fluid to minimise potential scabbing. Gently clean brows with the provided cleanser and gently pat dry.

• You must gently wash your new brows every morning and night to avoid any infection by removing any dirt and bacteria.

• Throughout the initial healing process although it is important to keep the area clean you must not get your brows soaking wet. This means avoiding water and steam when showering, swimming, sauna/steam rooms etc.

• During the healing period avoid exercise. This is important for the end result as sweating causes the pigment to be forced out of the skins, this can result in patchy looking healed brows.

• Do not rub, itch or pick at your brows especially during the scabbing stage, scabs falling off prematurely can result in a patchy brow.

• Avoid makeup and sunscreen on the area during the healing time.

• Avoid direct sunlight and tanning on the area during the healing time.

• Apply a tiny amount of aftercare lotion provided every morning and night.

• Use a fresh, clean pillow slip after your appointment to avoid any bacteria.

• After your new brows are healed you must avoid any skincare products particularly that contain retinols on your brows and apply SPF every day on your brows. By doing this, you will avoid your brows fading faster.

Ombre tattoo is great for people that fill their eyebrows in with a pencil, powder etc. It is also well suited to people that regularly get henna or tinting. The brows will soften 20-40% after the initial appointment and will result in a natural looking tinted/powder brow. A good thing about ombré is that it can be made to look quite dramatic or also created to look very natural. This all comes down to personal preference and individual factors.

A very thorough consultation will be had prior to commencing the pre draw on the day.

A prior consultation can also be had either through zoom or in person at the studio to determine whether Ombré tattoo is the perfect service for you.
