Patch test

Why is performing a patch test so important?

A patch test, or also called allergy test, is a method to check whether a beauty product or ingredient provokes an allergy on your skin. A Brow Henna treatment uses Henna, and this contains ingredient PPD. Despite the fact that Kyro's Brow Henna is designed on as natural a basis as possible, in rare cases a nasty (contact) allergy can still occur. Such as highly irritated skin and sometimes even blisters. By conducting a patch test, you can rule this out. Are you allergic to PPD? Then, unfortunately, you cannot use Brow Henna. So it is very important to do a patch test, don't skip this step!

How to perform the patch test?

You perform the patch test at least 72 hours prior to your Brow henna treatment. Why? It can take up to 48 hours for an (allergic) reaction to develop.

  1. Prepare a Brow Henna capsule with Rose Water, according to the mixing ratio.
  2. Apply a dot of Brow Henna on your wrist or on the inside of your elbow.
  3. Leave it on for 15 - 20 minutes.
  4. Remove the Brow Henna with a damp cotton pad with water.
  5. If any reaction occurs in the meantime, rinse immediately and wash the skin with soap and water.
  6. Does no reaction occur within 48 hours after the patch test? For example, redness, itching or burning sensation, you can perform the Brow Henna treatment.

When should you not perform a Brow Henna treatment?

Pregnancy or breastfeeding

It is not recommended to apply a Brow Henna treatment during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
It certainly cannot harm the unborn child. Because of the hormones, there is an increased risk of an allergic reaction or the result not turning out as desired. If one gets an allergic reaction, medication such as hormone ointments or antibiotics may be required. Unfortunately, this is not a nice combination with pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Restless skin

Do you have irritated skin, wounds or acne around the eyebrows? Then we do not recommend the Brow Henna treatment. Unfortunately, your skin will be more susceptible to an allergic reaction.

Just before a sun holiday

After a Brow Henna treatment, you should avoid the sun, and tanning beds for 48 hours. Sun on Henna Brows can trigger an allergy. The advice is to avoid going into direct sunlight when you have just had your Brow Henna treatment. During these 48 hours, you should protect your brows by staying in the shade. After the 48 hours, you can oil your eyebrows with spf to protect them, this may cause them to fade faster though.

What if you have an allergic reaction?

Don't panic. Do you have a doubt? Consult your GP, probably hormone ointment or cream will be prescribed. Hope you get rid of the symptoms soon, unfortunately you won't be able to undergo any more Brow Henna treatment.
