Tint
Color for the hair you have, after a patch test
A tint deepens the brow hair and softens a sparse look at the edges of the line. We tint where state rules allow it, always after a patch test, and your artist will not tint a brow with a reaction or a broken skin.

Good to know
Before, between and after
Before you book
Book a patch test at least 48 hours ahead for a first tint. Tell us about allergies, sensitive skin or any reaction to hair dye. If you have a cut, rash or irritation at the brow, please wait.
How often
Clients often tint every four to six weeks, usually with a shape. Hair color fades over time, and your artist can tell you when yours is ready for another.
Aftercare
Keep the brow dry for the first 24 hours, and skip exfoliating products and heavy oils on it for two days. Tell us if the skin burns, swells or turns red.

Questions
Two questions we hear
Do I need a patch test?
Yes, before a first tint or lamination, at least 48 hours ahead. It shows how your skin responds. It helps, but it can't predict every reaction, so tell us about allergies, eczema or sensitive skin around the brow.
What if I react?
Reactions can happen. If you notice burning, swelling, redness or blurred vision, tell us and call your doctor, and go to urgent care if it is severe. Your artist stops a service whenever you ask.
