PATCH TESTING

Your patch test is the most important part of your treatment as this is going to help show if you could be allergic to the products used in the treatment.

I'm unable to carry out any treatments if a patch test has not been completed. This is because I work to very high standards and will always put my clients safety before anything else. I'm unable to offer waiver forms or make any exceptions.

The following treatments all reqauire a patch test...

- HD BROWS (hd brow tint will cover you for an eyebrow tint & lash tint)

- LVL LASHES

- BROW LAMINATION

These all use different products and each treatment require their own separate patch test.

It can take a full 48 hours for a allergic reaction to show up, so the patch test must be a minimum of 48 hours before your treatment.

The above treatments that require a patch test can not be carried out on clients who are pregnant or breast feeding (waxing and eyebrow waxing however is absolutely fine) and patch tests can not be done during pregnancy. After pregnancy a new patch test must be repeated to check for new sensitivity as the body and hormones will have changed so much.

Patch tests must also be repeated where there has been more than a 6 month lapse since your last treatment. This means if you haven't had a treatment with me for over 6 months you will need a new patch test. We can become allergic to anything at any time and it is possible to suddenly be allergic to a product that you was once fine with one year ago. I know that it can be difficult and a bit of a annoyance to keep attending patch test appointments, but I have seen sudden allergies before and I wont take the risk on you.

What are HD Brows?

HD Brows is a bespoke eyebrow treatment which includes tinting, waxing, threading, tweesing, trimming, make up & after care advise.
What is the different between HD Brows and an eyebrow tint & wax?

This is a great question and one I am asked a lot. With an eyebrow tint & wax, tint is used to create fullness and a darker brow, and the wax is used to tidy up the shape. HD Brows however includes more time to work on the shape of the brows which is perfect for anyone who is growing their brows out, needing their shape corrected or just wants that extra time and detailing spent on making them perfect. An eyebrow tint & wax is more ideal for someone who gets very little growth around the eyebrow area and who just wants a quick and simple tidy up.
What is Brow Lamination?

Brow lamination is great for those who love a ‘brushed-up' look and who want to fix their hair in the brushed up position. This treatment can be great for those with small brows wanting a thicker look, downward pointing hair and it can even help achieve symmetry. The Brow Lamination treatment includes Lamination, tinting, waxing to shape, threading & make up.
How long will they last?

This can vary from person to person but as a general rule... HD Brows - up to four weeks. Brow Lamination - up to 6 weeks. 8 weeks should be left between Lamination treatments. It is possible to have a tint and wax in between lamination treatments to keep them fresh and looking great!
How long will it take/ last?

Around 45 minutes with an expert LVL lash technician. It’s a closed-eye procedure too. Relax. Time for a power nap. You’re then set for up to 6-8 weeks.
Do I need a patch test?

YES! Your patch test is the most important part of your treatment and I'm not able to carry out any treatments without a patch test being done. This is to protect you as much as possible. HD Brows (this includes lash & brow tinting), Brow Lamination & LVL Lashes all use different products and so requires a new patch test for each one. Click here for more info on patch testing.
