Gently dab and cleanse the area
Apply aftercare balm sparingly
Avoid picking or scratching while healing
No makeup, excessive sweating, or sun exposure for a few days

We recommend a touch-up every 12–18 months to keep your look fresh and flawless.

  • Have an open wound, psoriasis, or skin irritation at the piercing site
  • Have surgery scheduled that will require jewelry removal

Your job starts once the piercing is done! We’ll go over everything in person, but here’s what to expect:

Your post procedure success plan

Healing Expectations:
Lobes: 8–12 weeks
Cartilage: 6–12 months
Nostril: 4–6 months

Every body is different, so don’t rush it! Proper aftercare means your piercing stays clean, comfortable, and stunning.

You'll leave with clear instructions and everything you need to keep your new piercing looking and feeling great.

Lash Extensions

Fresh lashes are coming your way!
To make sure they last as long as possible, follow these quick pre-appointment tips:

Before Your Appointment:
  • Arrive with no eye makeup (We’ll cleanse your lashes, but removing makeup takes up precious lashing time!)
  • Avoid waterproof mascara for 2–3 days before
  • Skip sunscreens or moisturizers around your eyes
  • Don’t curl your lashes beforehand

Clean lashes = better results
If your lashes aren’t clean, we’ll need to do a $15 lash bath to prep them properly

Once your new lashes are applied, it’s your turn to help them stay flawless!
We’ll send you home with full instructions, but here’s the gist:

  • Be gentle. No rubbing or pulling
  • Avoid oil-based products and mascara
  • Cleanse lashes daily with a lash-safe cleanser
  • Avoid heat, steam, and heavy sweating for 24–48 hours
  • Keep up with regular fills every 2–3 weeks to maintain fullness

With a little love and care, your lashes will stay lush and beautiful longer!

Fine Line 
Tattoos

Ready for your new tattoo? We are too!
To make sure your fine line tattoo heals beautifully and holds detail, follow these steps before your appointment:

Before Your Appointment:
  • Do NOT apply numbing cream beforehand (This can affect pigment retention and may require rescheduling)
  • Get a good night's sleep
  • Eat well and stay hydrated. Your body needs energy to sit and heal
  • Avoid alcohol for 24 hours prior (It increases bleeding and can affect pigment)
  • Shower before your appointment. You won’t be able to get the area wet for a bit afterward
  • Wear clothes that give access to the area being tattooed (Short sleeves for arms, shorts for legs, etc.)
Once your tattoo is complete, aftercare is key to keeping it crisp and clean. We’ll send you home with full instructions, but here’s the short version:

  • Keep the area clean and dry
  • Gently wash and apply aftercare balm as directed
  • Avoid scratching, soaking, or exposing to sun during healing

Healing times vary, but fine line tattoos often require a touch-up to stay sharp. We’ll guide you on when and if that’s needed
