Not Sure How I Feel Yet

Honestly freaking out. They're so dark. I know they're supposed to fade but they have an arch higher than what I'm use to. Idk what anyone else might think but 6 hours after the procedure they are darker than before and really scabbed. Need opinons. I'm scared the shape isn't right for me or it's too bold for my small face

Very reassuring. She was kind but it took like an hour of waiting until she got to me. I hope they turn out well but idk what to do.

They are going to lighten and thin a bit, although personally I love the shape already! Great job!

I'm going through a similar emotional roller coaster... I'm on day 2 and they are so big! I'm hoping as the days go on they will calm down and I'll get used to them. Your brows suit your face and pic 4 looks gorgeous!

Yeah they looked amazing immediately after. I loved it. I didn't expect them to scao so quick and I wanted them to be thicker brows. (Thick. Not dense.) So I'm hoping that's how they turn out.

I got mine done a week ago and I felt the same way!! Hold on, hunny! They get wayyyyy better! I hated mine so much I just wanted to die lol. Seriously. They were way too dark. Way too thick. All I did was cry. Fast forward a week later, LOVE THEM!!!!! I'm so excited! And I'm soooo happy now! They fade ALOT! And when they fade they seem to get a lot thinner as well. Just hang in there! You will love yours too. They look great!

I'm super concerned cause they're basically black right now and I feel like they're ashier than intended.

They get better. And that's what the second touchup is for. It will correct all that color :) Mine looked like I draw mine on with the fattest black sharpie I could find! Lol. Everything you're saying is normal. Just wait it out until your touchup. Then that's when the magic happens :)

When do they start peeling? Like day 5??

Just depends on your skin. That's when mine started peeling and they start looking hazey and patchy. Mine aren't fully healed yet but I've been reading that they peel and look really light. Then they come back dark. Then they go light again. Think of it this way. Your brows are only 50% done at this point. And I don't mean the color will be black after your touchup and stay black forever. Those fade out again too. But the color is really corrected and anything you don't like about how your brows are shaped can be corrected at the touchup as well.

I think they look gorgeous! Swipe on some mascara and you'll look runway ready. You have the perfect face to rock the bold brows!! I love this!!!!!

I'm still wondering around what day do they start peeling?

Itchy

Apparently I scratched a lot of the scabbing off in my sleep. It's day 6 so I hope I retain this pigment. Some of the results are really faded but I'm hoping it "comes back" like people pain it does with natural peeling.

I think they're a great size and frame your face well.

Scarring

CorinaGeneJune 1, 2018
My artist went too deep and caused scarring. I will he seeking elsewhere for a touchup. Just trying to exfoliate the skin off at this point so they fade.
