What Does the Powder Brows Healing Process Day by Day Look Like?
Days 1-2
The powder brows treatment is fresh, which means that your brows will probably be red and swollen. Also, they look like a block of color and the pigment is too dark. What you need to do is to calm down and stop checking them every five minutes. Also, you must not touch them or wash them. If advised by your esthetician, just blot your eyebrows with a clean, dry cloth.
Days 3-4
The color will fade a little bit, but it is still far from the final look. Your eyebrows have just started to heal. If the redness is still present and intense and your brows are itchy, ask your artist to check if this is usual.
Days 5-7
Annoying scabbing stage starts. Some people’s powder brows will scab more than others, which is normal because everybody heals differently. Some itchiness is also normal but you are not allowed to scratch your brows. You might ruin the treatment. Powder brows usually scab in one big or a few big pieces.
Some scabbing is normal, but if you experience extensive scabbing, contact your powder brows artist immediately.
Days 8-10
The scabbing stage is done and your eyebrows might look patchy and too light. Don’t freak out and think that your powder brows disappeared! They appear too light because your skin forms new layers over the pigment. The color will come back and the touch up will fix up the patches.
Days 11-28
The hardest period is behind you and now you can be more relaxed even though your eyebrows haven’t taken their final shape yet. You can start wearing makeup and go back to your everyday routine. Still, try not to sweat too much and spend too much time in the sun.
Days 28-42
Your brows are completely healed. They will probably look great much earlier, right after the first touch up. The first touch up is mandatory and you should not skip it. Its purpose is to fix all the irregularities and change what you are unsatisfied with.
