Aftercare & healing

Eyeliner Tattoo Aftercare

Eyeliner, lower liner and lash enhancement all heal on delicate territory, so the arc is gentler but the stakes of following the protocol are higher. Here's what the weeks look like.

Fawn's full aftercare protocol is provided at your appointment, in writing, specific to the service you had. This page will carry that protocol verbatim once it's confirmed for publication — what's below is the general healing arc, so you know what to expect, not a substitute for her instructions.

The first days — puffy and bold

Some swelling and puffiness around the eyes is common immediately after and typically short-lived. The fresh line reads darker and thicker than the healed result — like liner applied heavier than you would wear it.

The first week — tight and flaking

The lash line dries and lightly flakes as the surface heals. Because this is happening at the base of your lashes, Fawn's protocol on what to keep away from the area matters more here than for any other service — follow it exactly.

Weeks two to six — softening into place

The line softens and lightens as pigment settles, sometimes unevenly for a stretch. By around week six the healed weight and depth of the line are what they will be, and the 6–8 week perfecting session refines anything that healed soft.

Healed and ready for more?

The 6–8 week perfecting session and annual color boosts are separate appointments — book them the same way you booked the first.
