You can wash your face normally and apply a facial mask one week after eyebrow tattooing. After eyebrow tattooing, because the eyebrow area has trauma, if it comes into contact with water, it can easily cause infection or cause the eyebrow coloring to fail. Therefore, once the eyebrow area comes into contact with water, you should immediately use clean tissue to absorb the water.
In general, scabs will form on the tattooed area three to five days after eyebrow tattooing, and the scabs will peel off in about a week. After the scabs peel off, the eyebrows will be truly tattooed. You don’t have to worry about your eyebrows touching the water.
