Should my eyebrows look like this 6 days after microblading? (photos)

Question

I'm on day 6 after microblading and this is what my eyebrows look like. My tech said it's normal but looks like they're disappearing.

Hi there, 
Microblading is a two step process with a touch up suggested every 12-18 months.  You should have been given a second (follow up) apt two weeks after your initial treatment.  In this second treatment you and the provider go over what areas may need to be fixed as well as any fading that has taken place.  Also, everyone heals differently.  You can either choose a wet or dry heal.  If you used nothing (dry) during the healing process after your first treatment and experienced fading you may choose to wet heal. This just means you will use a healing agent i.e.; Aquaphor, or, even Vaseline in order to keep the skin moist so if a scab occurs the pigment will stay in place if you accidently irritate the area.  Another tip is to use a very mild cleanser the first seven days post treatment as to not irritate the area.  Small, circular and gentle strokes around brows is suggested. Then you pat dry the area.  Its important not to rub!  Best of luck!!!

It is typical to have some fading.  Everyone's body reacts to the ink differently.  Some people hold onto it better.  It's very important that your microblading artist provide a touch up at 4 to 6 weeks.  This should be part of the initial price.  It's typical that you will need continued touch ups every 12 to 18 months as well.

Hello Momma2divas,
Microblading is a 2 step process. Once the area has healed ( 6-8 weeks) your provider will do all corrections at that visit.
Best to you,
