Is it possible to dye my eyebrows after permanent make-up and how to do it correctly?

Permanent makeup is bright in itself. But sometimes there is a need to tint the eyebrows. With the help of the dye, it is easy to correct the shape of the eyebrows, hide imperfections, renew the faded pigment.

After permanent make-up, the look can completely change. Correctly selected eyebrow shape can correct facial features, make it attractive, and the look - more expressive. If the master comes across with great experience and high professionalism, then the brow ridges will look natural and organic. But this effect is not achieved immediately. During tattooing, punctures are formed in the skin through which paint is injected. These wounds take time to heal and take special care. Redness and swelling appear immediately after the procedure, which should disappear within the first week.

Then crusts-scales appear, covering the wounds. At this time, the eyebrows look unaesthetic, and the color itself becomes dull. Do not peel off or soak the crusts. So you can bring in an infection, and then the healing process will stretch indefinitely.

During this very healing period, you want to make your makeup brighter and your look more expressive. But many are afraid to dye their eyebrows after permanent make-up, and for good reason. The fact is that the paint affects not only the hairs, but also the skin.It may not be as aggressive as hair dye, but for the still damaged dermis, this is a serious test. As a result, the protective crusts may be damaged, and an allergic reaction in the form of a rash, redness or swelling may occur.

Therefore, for the first two weeks, experts categorically prohibit dyeing eyebrows. After that, the use of a cosmetic pencil is allowed, but very carefully. Make-up should be removed with special oil-based products. It is allowed to use eyebrow dye, including natural henna or basma, only 3-4 weeks after the tattoo procedure, as soon as the skin is completely healed. This is usually not required as permanent makeup is bright on its own.

Nevertheless, the masters identify the following cases when eyebrow tinting is necessary:

• correction, hiding color bald spots, hair loss;
• overlapping color, for example, to a darker one;
• changing the shape of the eyebrow to match fashion trends;
• asymmetry of the brow arches;
• gray hair;
• lack of a bright background, as the pigment fade over time.

Usually eyebrows are tinted twice a month, as the pigment contains natural ingredients and disappears faster. But in the case of permanent make-up, experts recommend carrying out the staining procedure no more than once a month. This is due to the condition of the skin of the eyebrows. It is more sensitive, there are a lot of blood vessels passing through it. And any paint has an effect on the dermis. If abused, then various allergic reactions, peeling, hair loss are possible.

Unlike ready-made professional products, henna is a completely natural dye. She not only gives color, but also looks after. Its shade, grind and even smell depend on the variety and country of origin. She is brought to Russia from Egypt, India, Iran and Pakistan. Henna is allowed to be used after 14 days. Again, drawing on the appearance of the browbones. They have not yet fully healed, there are protective scales. Therefore, the dye should be used very carefully and applied with a soft brush.

It is best to dilute henna at a minimum concentration. This will reduce the risk of irritation and swelling. If the skin already has redness, inflammation or other problems that require special care and treatment, it is better to refuse the staining procedure.

It is allowed to use a cosmetic pencil already 2 weeks after the permanent make-up procedure, but very carefully. This dye does not penetrate into the dermis and does not irritate it, therefore it is safe. Removing makeup can damage the crust. As soon as the skin is completely healed after the permanent, which is 3-4 weeks, it is allowed to use a professional eyebrow dye. The shade needs to be selected as suitable as possible, for the first staining, choose an oxide of 3%, for the next - 6%. If the eyebrows are corrected with tweezers, then postpone the staining for 1-2 days. The fact is that a micro-wound is formed at the site of the pulled out hair, which should have time to heal. If paint gets into it, then allergic rashes, swelling and even inflammation are possible.

The product is diluted in a separate container and then applied to the eyebrows with a brush. In order not to accidentally stain the eyelids and forehead, the areas must be lubricated with a fat cream in advance. Keep the paint strictly according to the instructions, usually 5-15 minutes. Overexposure is not recommended, as this negatively affects the condition of the skin and hairs. If the eyebrow has darkened sharply, it is recommended to immediately wash off the paint with soap.
