What do I need to do before my appointment?
Preparing for Your Appointment- (Before-care instructions)
Preparing properly for your permanent makeup appointment helps ensure the best possible results and a comfortable experience.
Please review the following guidelines before your visit.
24 Hours Before Your Appointment
To minimize sensitivity and ensure optimal pigment retention, please avoid the following for 12 hours prior to your procedure:
• Alcohol
• Blood-thinning medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen
• Fish oil, vitamin E, or other blood-thinning supplements
These can increase bleeding and may affect pigment retention.
One Week Before Your Appointment
Please avoid the following treatments around the brow area for at least 7 days prior:
• Chemical peels
• Retinol or exfoliating products
• Botox or fillers near the brow area
• Waxing, threading, or tinting the brows
This helps ensure the skin is calm and healthy before the procedure.
The Day of Your Appointment•
Arrive with clean skin and no makeup on the treatment area
• Eat a light meal beforehand
• Wear comfortable clothing
• Allow adequate time for your appointment so you can relax during the process
If you normally fill in your brows, you may do so that day. This can help communicate your preferred shape and style.
Who Should Wait Before Scheduling
Permanent makeup may need to be postponed if you are experiencing any of the following:
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding
• Active skin conditions near the brow area
• Recent facial procedures or laser treatments
• Sunburn or irritated skin
If you are unsure whether you should schedule or , please contact Carol prior to booking.
Your Consultation
Every appointment begins with a thorough consultation.
During this time Carol will:
• Discuss your desired shape and style
• Map and design the brows to complement your natural features
• Select pigment tones that suit your skin tone and hair color
The goal is always natural, balanced results that enhance your features — never overpower them.
Final Note
Permanent makeup is a personal and lasting decision. Carol takes pride in creating a comfortable experience and guiding each client through the process with care and attention to detail.
A Special Note for Clients Undergoing Chemotherapy
Permanent makeup for clients preparing for chemotherapy holds a very special place in Carol’s heart.
Many of you may know that Carol was first inspired to enter the permanent makeup field after witnessing her own mother struggle with the loss of her eyebrows during cancer treatment. Seeing how deeply this affected her mother’s confidence and sense of normalcy motivated Carol to learn how she could help others going through the same experience.
Because of this personal connection, Carol understands how meaningful it can be to restore a sense of comfort and confidence during such a challenging time.
If you have recently been diagnosed with cancer and are preparing to begin chemotherapy, please reach out to Carol directly. Although her calendar may appear fully booked online, she will always try to accommodate clients facing this situation and schedule an appointment prior to the start of treatment whenever possible.
In some cases, permanent makeup may still be performed with approval from your oncologist. Carol will be happy to discuss your individual circumstances and work with you to determine the safest and most appropriate timing.
Carol’s goal is to help you feel as comfortable, confident, and beautiful as possible during this chapter of your life.
Please contact Carol directly for assistance with scheduling.
