Is This Normal? Wish I Never Did This...

$550
So what’s up with these results? It’s been about 8 days and the scabbing is gone and it looks like the strokes didn’t take but I have dark dots where the stroke starts and that’s it. Looks ridiculous and grey... wish I never did this to myself. Stick to tinting ladies it’s not worth it.

Did your Microblading Specialist not give you a guideline on how your Brows are supposed to heal? It takes up to 8 weeks before you see your true results, and the stage you're in now is the new skin exposed stage. So the pigment will slowly start to make its way back to the surface. I say call her and get proper instructions and guideline before you discourage the service to others. Wish you all the best.
The issue is I don’t want the color or lines to come back any more than they are because the color is black/purple and I have blonde hair and lashes.
The same with me. If you are naturally Blond do NOT EVEN DREAM IF DOING IT. The eyebrow look so dark that even my niece said “auntie you look scary”. The truth from the child’s mouth. Why on Earth did I do this??? And to add cherry on the top I had Nice eyebrows before this. Everyone said so including the lady who did this! Why did she insist I do it and why was I stupid to listen???? Is there any way of getting my old eyebrows back? Of getting rid of this awful black / gray colour??? PLEASE
I honestly was able to lighten mine Even after 10 days but what I did was so risky and could have ruined my skin and don’t even want to post it. I just got lucky it faded instead of scarring from what I did because it was pretty aggressive. But honestly salt scrubs with a few drops of hydrogen peroxide is a good lightening solution if you just had it done or kind of recently. I just rubbed wayyyy too hard since it had been over a week and I wasn’t sure if it would still work. My eyebrows were raw and had huge scabs. Luckily the pigment lifted a lot. But again wouldn’t recommend it. I would look into saline removal. Cheap and works really well I heard. I’m probably still going to do that eventually even though they lightened a lot... good luck to you!! I know your pain...
You can check your area to see if there is a reputable place that does a saline solution lightening procedure. I had my eyebrows microbladed by a girl who apparently was a professional (checked her info...she said she taught microblading etc, and photos were great), turns out she cut too deep causing scaring, and it looks like I have a grey eyebrow tattoo. I found a reputable brow salon that is doing what’s called ‘lightening’ on them. I have had my first procedure and they’ve already lightened a lot! Hopefully only 2 more.
I definitely am going to do that eventually! Was looking into it already! But can’t find any day by day pictures. Are the scabs bad enough to not be able to go to work? I can’t seem to find anyone very good in the Orlando area and am afraid to just go anywhere if the scabbing is intense?
I had no scubing. Do not worry about that. Only pain on the first day, which is normal. No other problems after that I have to be honest, but my problem is I HATE THEM now as they are TOO DARK. No one tells you: Blondes ( real blondes) should Not do it
Even after the removal they are more dark? Or before? Yes they shouldn’t! But the artists don’t say that because they only care about the money and not the long term emotional toll this takes on us... UGH!
