Did I ruin my brows by exercising? (photo)

lneddowFeb 27, 2019
Hello. I got microblading and shading done 13 days ago. I didn't do anything the first 3 days. On day 4, I did an hour of yoga, but didn't sweat. Days 5-13, I have been doing cardio/yoga where I lightly sweat, but I don't let it drip down to the brows and stand in front of a fan when I start to sweat to dry face. I also havent really been scabbing much, only in a few spots, which fell off already. Have I completely ruined my brows (see photos)?

After the brows are healed and if you are still unhappy you can have your artist (or another) correct the brows...
