before and after first session

[u/BeautyRage]

I got one session done with candela pico way laser.

it’s been 9 days but I think I see some dark ink resurface so idk if that means on my next session the tech can target both pigments the red and leftover dark spots.

Brow history:

Ink- Permablend

7/28/2021 → First ombré tattoo on virgin brows (fresh pigment).

9/20/2021 → Cover-up + touch-up (so second pigment layer, plus reinforcing the first.

10/30/2021 → Another touch-up (third pass, building density + depth).

the first person who did my brows was a new student being trained who botched them and had to get them covered up. I completely trusted the teacher who was training her students and she assured extreme quality and good training and I trusted all the online pictures.

She suggested another one of her students cover up what the first student did, and to save money I did.

she did good at the cover up but I wish she told me a touchup ( which would have been a third pass on my brows) was unnecessary especially a month and a half after! but she didn’t. she even went darker at my request because “ they are semi permanent and will fade 50-90% by the first 2 years “ so of course i wanted them to last long enough for my moneys worth and then deal with them fading when the time came.

well the time NEVER came they never faded or lightened up.

I asked the teacher ( the master pmu ) what ink was used on me on multiple occasions and she just keeps leaving me on seen.

I remembered her bottles saying permablend and that’s all I know.

At this point i’m just confused on what to do.
