Aftercare for Ombre Powder Brows Q&A

Following your ombre powder brows procedure, it’s crucial to ensure that the area is kept clean and free from irritants. However, washing your brows should be done with caution. You should avoid washing your brows directly for at least 7 to 10 days after the procedure to allow the pigment to settle and the skin to heal. When you do begin to clean the area, ensure to use a mild, non-alcoholic cleanser, and pat gently to dry – never rub or scrub. Remember, proper aftercare is vital for the longevity and vibrancy of your ombre powder brows.

Ombre powder brows typically take about 6-8 weeks to fully heal. During the initial week post-procedure, the pigment will appear much darker, and there may be minimal swelling or redness. The color will gradually fade by 40% to 60% as the brows enter a healing phase known as ‘peeling’ or ‘flaking,’ which usually occurs in the second week. By the third or fourth week, the color might appear too light – this is normal due to the healing skin hiding the pigment. However, by the sixth week or so, the true color will emerge. These healing stages are essential for the brows to attain their final shade and shape, all part of the natural healing process.

Aftercare for your ombre powder brows involves several do’s and don’ts. DO: Keep the brow area dry for a week, apply the prescribed ointment with a clean cotton swab, sleep on your back to prevent rubbing, and use a fresh pillowcase. Don’t: pick, peel, or scratch at the brows, expose them to direct sunlight or tanning beds, swim or use saunas or hot tubs, use face creams or makeup on the brow area, or engage in heavy exercise that causes sweating. Adhering to these guidelines helps ensure the pigment is properly set and your brows heal beautifully.

Touch-ups for your ombre powder brows are indeed necessary and are usually done about 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure. This session allows your technician to fill in any areas that may have healed lighter or patchy due to the natural skin regeneration process, and to adjust color and shape if required. On average, clients come back for a color boost annually to maintain the vibrancy and definition of the brows, but this can vary depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and preference. Remember, regular touch-ups ensure that your ombre brows always look their best.
