Factors That Will Affect Semi-Permanent Cosmetics

Oily skin: Increased oil production can cause hair strokes to bur and heal lighter and powdery.

Smoking: Smokers may notice that their semi-permanent cosmetics will fade faster.

Anemia and iron deficiency: Your body will absorb iron based pigments more quickly.

Sun Exposure: Increase exposure to the sun will cause premature fading. You will want to use a special sunscreen for your semi-permanent cosmetics. I have a brow sunscreen in my shop that you can purchase to protect your brows. 

Age and Metabolism: The faster your metabolism the faster the pigment will fade.

Bleeding During the Procedure: Excessive bleeding during your procedure will greatly affect how your body retains pigment. While this is not entirely in our control, it is important that you follow pre-procedure instructions to help minimize bleeding. This includes avoiding blood thinning medications, alcohol, and caffeine 24 hours before your procedure.

*Note: using correct aftercare will help establish the pigment in the skin, causing longer lasting and better retention.
