-

Notify your technician of any allergies or hair dye allergies
-
Notify your technician of any skin conditions or irregularities in the area where the henna will be applied - not suitable for irritated or wounded skin
-
Keep your brows clean and free of makeup for 12-24 hours prior if possible. This will ensure better absorption and longer lasting results
-
Avoid spray tans or sunless tanning products for a minimum of 48 hours prior to your appointment. These products can interact with the henna and cause unwanted changes to the colors
-
Self tanning products, body butters, sunscreens, and other really deep moisturizers can take a couple days to clear the skin cells. This may affect your henna stain. Avoid these for 48 hours before your appointment.

Avoid touching or rubbing the area immediately after treatment

Strong sunlight/UV light will make the effects fade faster

-
If any redness or irritation occurs apply a damp cotton compress; If symptoms persist for more than 24 hours seek medical advice
-
To maintain your results do not over exfoliate the area
-
Avoid rubbing harsh soaps and chemicals on the area as this causes the effects to fade faster
