Will the Phibrows Brown 2 pigment fade completely over time? (photos)

iamforrealApr 4, 2018
I got my brows microbladed a few days ago and I hate them. I did salabrasion and my left brow got abrasions. Now I am scared that I will lose my eyebrow hairs in the abraded portions. Oh, Will the hair ever grow back? And those who use Phibrows Brown 2 pigment, do they fade completely if the brows are left unretouched? Or will I have to do laser tattoo removal to get rid of them completely? I am Asian with brown skin. If they will eventually fade completely, I will just wait it out.
