Microblading ... Not Loving Them

ORIGINAL POST

Microblading ... Not Loving Them

I had my brows microbladed for the first time yesterday.
They are so bold and dark and I feel like I look like a clown or angry bird.
How much will they fade and will they shrink??
I won't be happy if they stay looking like this.
Please help !

I had mine done too yesterday and feel. Completely the same
First 30 days are not fun. Be patient. The swollen will go down and collor will fade to a more natural tone. Mine took 30days to start loking normal. Now I love my eyebrow, they look super natural and perfect.
That is normal. The color is oxidizing in your skin. It will fade up to 30%. The girl who did mine really made that clear cus she said everyone freaks out at the 2-3 day mark. They will soften.
Oh and they’re swollen from the procedure. They will shrink too. I just made it past that point but now mine are patchy and itchy! Another normal thing. That’s what touch ups are for. Don’t add make up at this stage! Could mess them up. Good luck!
Me too! It's my 3rd day and I hate them !!
I am actually freaking out. I had mine done yesterday and have spent the majority of today crying. I truly hope they fade and shrink. They also don't look level today :(
Mine didn’t look level either ..too dark too thick for my face ..but day 11 I fell in love with them ..they look even better now at 4 weeks .
I had major anxiety too !
Thank you kooky1959 that's reassuring to hear. Mine seem to look more level again today.. yeyy :) I'm thinking one side must have been more swollen than the other and that's why they looked like that. They still look like marker pen though but I'll try and "trust the process" and hopefully they will get lighter and the hairstrokes will reappear in time. Thank you for commenting I have never felt so anxious before. I'm too embarrassed to leave the house. I hope like you I end up loving my brows soon xx
