Preparing For Your Combo Brow Appointment

Combo Brow is a unique technique that combines two different methods to achieve a more defined and bolder look than Microblading alone.

This approach involves using a tattoo gun to shade in the tail and/or bottom brow line while keeping the beginning of the brow fluffy and natural-looking.

With Combo Brow, the result is a more striking and defined look that enhances your facial features, creating a bold and polished appearance.

A touch-up appointment is most likely needed at 6-8 weeks. After that brows will need a touch-up every 2-3 years if you are looking to keep them fresh. 

•  Age Requirement: Ensure you are 18 years of age or older as per Washington state regulations, as no one under 18 can receive a tattoo, including microblading.
  Medications and Supplements: Avoid taking Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, or Ibuprofen 24 hours before your treatment.
• Omega-3: Refrain from consuming omega-3 supplements (fish oil) at least 72 hours prior to your appointment and during the healing process.
• Caffeine & Alcohol: Do not drink coffee, alcohol, or energizing drinks on the day of treatment. If you are used to drinking your daily cup of coffee feel free to still drink caffeine/coffee to avoid a caffeine headache. A headache is going to cause the procedure to be much more uncomfortable. Don’t torture yourself. Just keep it to one cup.
• Sun Exposure: Do not tan or expose your skin to intense sunlight for 3 days before your treatment and for two weeks afterward. Always continue to wear mineral SPF for the life of your tattoo. If you choose to tan after healing please cover your brows with a thick barrier layer of SPF.
• Waxing: Avoid waxing 2-3 days before your appointment and for four weeks after. Stray hair will be managed on the day of your appointment.

• Treatments: Avoid chemical peels, retinol, glycolic, dermabrasion, laser, or any other intense chemical or exfoliation treatments, 2 weeks before and after the appointment. Going forward, always avoid any chemical treatments on the tattoo for good retention, for the entire life of your tattoo.
• Botox: Botox (in the brow area) should be done only when your doctor clears you after microblading, usually a week or so after is common. However, if you do Botox before brows you must wait at least 2 weeks after the Botox has been injected (in the brow area) to have your brows bladed.
• Makeup: Feel free to fix your brows as you usually do so I can see how you like to shape them and take a before photo with and without makeup.
• Guests: Additional guests are welcome but will be asked to wait in the waiting area during the appointment as the treatment room is a sterile environment. Please no young children. Friends interested in the service may join us for certain parts of the appointment.
