Microblading aftercare sweating?

So, you have just had a microblading procedure done and are wondering whether sweating can mess up the aftercare process. Well, good news my friend, you have come to the right place! In this article we will take a humorous yet informative look at how sweating affects microblading aftercare.

The Situation

Picture this: You’ve been waiting eagerly for what feels like eons to finally get your brows done with microblading; waking up every morning and realizing that you still cannot leave the house without filling your eyebrows in completely. So, finally- it’s here! Excited beyond measure, you sit down as the threading expert goes to work.

Fast-forward an hour or so later and after a bit of discomfort followed by some carefully administered numbing cream, voila- brow perfection!

1 week post-microblading
Now comes the hard part – maintaining those beautiful brows! One false move could mean all efforts would go down the drain in sweat. Yes sweat, something that people don’t seem to consider while getting ready for their brow journey.

But wait… can I flush my sweaty face when I’m wearing these new beautiful set?

What Is Sweat?

Ah…sweat (not “perspiration”) ,what is it? Everyone sweats but not everyone understands exactly why our bodies do.

Sweating is actually a major process our body undergoes as a way of regulating temperature.So basically when funky things occur in our bodily environment (think exercise or heat) we end up generating this salty discharge from little glands throughout our skin (It sounds gross but hey!!). When evaporation occurs from this discharge (a.k.a sweat) from our skin surface….voila!!!! Personal cooling system activated!!!!! It’s simple science-y magic really-think of it kind-of like “A tiny little AC that works built-in our body”

SWEATING AFTER Microblading AND Its Negative effects

Sweating after microblading CAN potentially harm your fresh new set of eyebrows; making them to appear less than perfect.The negative effects it could have on newly-microbladed brows include:

1) Smudging
2) Infection
3) Fading or blistering of the pigments (AAAHH no one likes this!!!)
4. Stinging (especially if you’ve just completed the treatment!)

Bluntly put, sweating is definitely an enemy to you and your micro-bladed Brows, especially during the first two weeks when they are still healing.

Normally, during this period there are certain things you must avoid – which includes excessive sweating by doing heavy workouts and other activities that cause rise in body temperature.

If incomplete After-care procedure is followed- like exposure to sweat although accidental: then all benefits will be flushed down the drain with every salty drop(leaves fingers crossed).

How Can Sweating Affect Microblading?

There is a popular saying, “Moisture Is NOT Your Friend”(unless it’s skincare 😅). This adage as applied here means “sweat has got beef with healing freshly-done brow work”. Here’s how sweating affects microblading:

  • Smudging : Sweat causes smudging problems mainly because it dissolves away scabs together with ink particles.

  • Fading and Discoloration: The more pigment moves out from under epidermis layers into skin surface where fluids constantly move throughout due to heat; washed off eventually leading towards discoloration leading fading.

Goodness! That’s going to cost some people!!

But wait… isn’t there a way I can stop my face from pouring while looking fabulous??

There sure is!
