Ok. so I went to have them removed the first time with saline. The second time I went back to the lady who jacked them up and she did Saline removal. Her technique was harsh left a little scar. They have lightened significantly, However the tails still need work. Here is an updated photo.

My first saline removal is in 3 days. I am hoping to be able to sleep again-7 weeks from microblade nightmare. I hope to look like a normal person soon.

It's very slow going. I've had two removal sessions with saline and they are lighter but still there. May 4 is the next one. Trying to be patient but still freaking out st them.

I got mine done about a month ago. They are too dark and already almost a faded blue/black color. Really disheartening. I feel like an idiot. I paid a fair amount and also tipped the lady!

Hmmm, didn't' show my entire comment. I tipped her 20% lol. I am looking for practitioners in my area that do the saline method can't wait to feel normal again! Hope all is well with your brows lady!

Did you lose any eyebrow hair in the process? If so did they grow back

Yes such a horrible experience, and I'm sorry that the second lady really messed you up. I have had my brows done twice (specifically eyebrows) first time was in 2003 and the second time was just this past May. I'm happy with my results but I would say for removal always opt for saline not laser. The saline might take more sessions to lighten up but it looks so much better and is much better for your skin. I went back twice this year (yday) for her to use saline only in the beginning of my eyebrows to lighten them up and create an hombre effect and I loved it. If it's any comfort, they will fade naturally overtime as well…

2nd Removal-

goddessbbMarch 8, 2016
Had second removal. I don't believe it was the same saline method. She used a liquid that was a color corrector or lifter of some sort . The treatment was more aggressive than the first time and she went over the area several times. The last lady was done in 5 min. This time it was about 20 min! I see more bruising this time. She attempted to correct the part where it was too high. And in the very beginning where the strokes look to harsh,

This lady made a scar where she removed ink. Last lady was to gental, this lady way too agressive . I hope with fade cream it will fade. This will be an extensive removal process. Post pic in the morning.

@goddessbb how are you doing darling?!? Been a long time since you posted?!

Did you not go back to C.packman for continued removal? FYI I have been using a great scar product. PM me and I can talk to you about it. As another member on this forum I have sent some too.

I have a scars from the removal . Applying fade crew am and mederma hope it helps. It does appear ink lifted. This removal process is a drag. Looks like it will be a full year for complete removal with proper rest in between sessions to be gentle enough to prevent scarring and occasions I can't go one month with weird eyebrows. I want these tails off!
