Henna Brow Aftercare
Henna Brow Aftercare & Client Instructions
Professional Guidance for Optimal Results
As a henna brow professional, proper client aftercare education is essential to achieving consistent results, stain longevity, and client satisfaction. Henna stains both the hair and skin, and post-service care directly impacts performance.
Immediately Post-Service
Advise clients to:
β’ Avoid touching or manipulating the brow area
β’ Keep brows completely dry for 24 hours
β’ Avoid applying makeup, skincare, or brow products
This initial setting period is critical for stain retention.
First 24β48 Hours: Critical Avoidances
Instruct clients to avoid:
β’ Water, steam, sweating, or swimming
β’ Oils, serums, retinol, AHAs, BHAs, or exfoliants
β’ Brow makeup, setting gels, or tinted products
β’ Heat exposure including saunas and hot yoga
These factors can prematurely fade the skin stain.
Color Development Expectations
Educate clients that:
β’ Brows may appear darker immediately post-service
β’ Color will soften and stabilize within 24β48 hours
β’ Skin stain typically lasts 5β10 days
β’ Hair tint longevity is approximately 4β6 weeks, depending on hair growth and home care
Setting expectations upfront reduces service dissatisfaction.
Recommended Daily Brow Care
Professionals should instruct clients to:
β’ Cleanse the face gently, avoiding direct contact with brows
β’ Pat dry onlyβno rubbing
β’ Avoid facial oils and heavy creams near the brow area
β’ Brush brows lightly with a clean spoolie if needed
Maximizing Henna Brow Longevity
Advise clients that longevity improves when they:
β’ Avoid exfoliation and active skincare around brows
β’ Limit water exposure
β’ Use non-oil-based cleansers and makeup removers
β’ Maintain a consistent, gentle skincare routine
Professional Considerations
β’ Oily skin types may experience reduced skin stain retention
β’ Excessive sweating, swimming, or exfoliation will shorten results
β’ Henna results vary based on skin type, lifestyle, and adherence to aftercare
Clear communication protects both results and professional integrity.
Rebooking Recommendation
Henna brow services are best maintained every 4β6 weeks to ensure consistent shape, color, and coverage.
