IS IT TIME FOR MY COLOR BOOST?
STEP 1 : PLAN AHEAD
Have a significant event coming up? Weddings, vacation, family planning (remember, no brow work during pregnancy or breastfeeding). Remember to check the Pre-Care & Post-Care section to see what you will have to avoid weeks leading up to your color boost or weeks post service.
STEP 2: ACCESS YOUR NEEDS
Sometimes, a little cleaning, exfoliation, and hydration can rejuvenate your brows, making them look freshly done! Groom - wax or thread to remove all baby hairs and reset shape. Exfoliate - thoroughly wash brows with your normal face cleanser and/or exfoliator, we often wash around our brows but dead skin cell build up can make brows appear dull, don’t be afraid to thoroughly wash them. Hydrate - use your normal face moisturizer and remember to regularly apply SPF to protect color.
STEP 3: DECIDE IF IT IS TIME TO BOOK
You’ve groomed them, exfoliated and hydrated, how do you feel about your brows now? IF THEY ARE STILL HOLDING THEIR SHAPE WELL, IT MAY BE TOO SOON TO BOOK YOUR BOOST. Let's avoid over-saturating the skin with ink, ensuring natural-looking brows long term. If they are very light, the tone has shifted, or you have lost your shape, it may be time for a boost. Please check my availability to schedule your appointment. I do not charge more the longer you wait in between visits. If you don’t need it, you simply don’t need it and protecting the integrity of the skin is my top priority! Ideally the brow should fade about 40% before we add more ink to the brow. Clients typically return 12-24 months post their Follow-up or last Color Boost, with some clients waiting even longer. It is NOT necessary to get a color boost every year. If you are still not sure if it is time for a boost, fill out the online consultation form and include your inquiry for a color boost appointment :)
