Your eyebrow tint may not have lasted for several reasons, mostly related to the care of the area after treatment.
Factors Affecting Brow Tint Longevity
Several factors can influence how long your eyebrow tint lasts. Understanding these can help you maintain your tint for longer.
Chemical Exposure
- Chlorine: Swimming in chlorinated water can cause your tint to fade faster. Chemicals like chlorine affect the pigment in the dye, reducing its lifespan.
- Solution: Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools if you want your tint to last longer.
Skincare Products
- Exfoliating Products: Using anti-aging and exfoliating skincare products around the brow area can cause premature color fading. These products can strip away the pigment.
- Solution: Avoid applying these products to your brow area, especially for three days before and after tinting and ongoing.
Post-Treatment Care
- General Skincare Application: Applying other skincare products around the brows too soon after your treatment will lead to faster fading of the color.
- Solution: After three days, avoid applying any skincare products directly on or around your eyebrows.
How to Make Your Brow Tint Last Longer
To ensure your eyebrow tint lasts as long as possible, follow these tips:
- Avoid Swimming Pools: If you can, skip the pool especially for the first few days after treatment.
- Be Mindful of Skincare: Steer clear of exfoliating or anti-aging products near your brows. Be careful when applying them around your face, avoiding the brow area.
- Gentle Cleansing: Use a gentle cleanser when washing your face, avoiding scrubbing the brow area.
By following these steps you can greatly improve the longevity of your eyebrow tint, reducing the need for frequent re-tinting.
