Boo-yah!!! Those henna eyebrows look killer! To keep them looking on point and amaz-balls, we have some very easy aftercare instructions to follow. Nothing too hard and they will totally make those brows keep popping!
For the next 24 – 48 hours, pretend like you are wearing a pair of snorkels. You want to avoid any waters, steams and heats from going near your brows. Just like lash lifts and lash extensions. What they will do, is cause that henna to come off earlier than it should and that’s totally not what we want to happen with those gorgeous brows.
The henna itself, will stain your skin for the next 4 – 7 days and then start to fade off of the skin, however, it will stay in the brow hairs for the next 4 – 6 weeks. You do need to be careful with any creams or moisturizers that you use near your brows. If they are an anti-aging style cream or moisturizer, it will penetrate the skin at the same level as the Henna product. The anti-aging products are designed to increase the skin cell turn over and because the Henna is in the same cell level, this will cause the Henna to be pushed out. This will usually happen within about 2 days.
What we have found over the years, using this particular henna product, is that the more frequently you get it done, the longer the skin staining will last. We have seen clients that were coming to us every 3 weeks and after 9 months, they were saying that their skin staining was lasting about 2 and a half weeks before fading.
We recommend coming in every 3 weeks to keep your henna brows on point and looking fleek and the more frequently we are staining the skin, the longer the skin staining will last.
If you want the absolute best from your henna brows, we do recommend using the Fox Cosmetics Longevity Serum. It will add a waterproof coating over the henna, so that the henna will last longer and it also has some growth serum in there too to help regrow some of those brow hairs.
As will all of our treatments, if there are any issues or problems, we are never far away and always ready to help. Just reach out to us in the salon or on Facebook and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
