What to expect

Before & after

Before you come

Arrive without brow makeup, gel or oil-based skincare on the brows
If it's your first tint, or you've ever reacted to hair dye, ask for a patch test when you book
Thread or wax at the same visit, not the day after — tint goes on after shaping
Bring a photo of a colour you like

Aftercare

Keep brows dry and away from face wash for 24 hours so the colour sets
Avoid oil cleansers, micellar water and exfoliants directly on the brows — they fade tint faster
Skip saunas, steam and swimming for 24 hours
A slight skin stain fades within a day or two; the colour on the hair lasts 3–6 weeks
