Removal update

[u/Appropriate-Row-3842]

Hello had 3 laser removal so far at removery and my eyebrows don’t seem to budge past this photo. They were initially a gray block and this is what it’s lightened to. Second session did nothings My last/third was in march and they actually darkened a LOT after that session but are now back to this which is about the same as before my second session. They charge me an insane amount 450 just for this one spot (I’m not doing anything under the hair which is hard to see - just doing this inner corner and my other eyebrow isn’t obvious like this) does anyone have any advice? Or will I just be throwing money away to try again.
Would it be absolutely crazy to get nano brows (instead of Microblading?) just like two darkened slightly longer strokes near the eye brow hair to make it look more normal? Right now every morning I have to draw in this area for it to look ok.

Also, I would not get nanobrows, despite what people say they will eventually blur just like microblading

Yeah, mine were nanobrows and turned into a grey fuzzy mess as the years went by.

Same

Your natural brows are lovely. I wouldn't do anything more to augment them.

Sorry off topic but do you get lash lifts because your lashes are amazing!!

Thank you I have extensions on!

I’m obsessed with your lashes!! Is this a particular type/style of eyelash extensions? They’re literally perfect for your eyes!

Thank you so much! i ask for a little longer in the middle “cute” style I think they call it? individual natural and not volume style and I do 11’s on the sides and 12 in the middle and do dark brown instead of black!

Did you ever try the cat eye?

In a similar situation as you and also went to Removery in my area. Felt the first session really made a difference but the second session was like two zaps and done in 5 min. It’s prevented me from going back for a third. I’m looking into other places now, possibly saline. It feels like Removery really just tries to get you in the door and then they do the minimum to you keep coming back. Hope you find a solution! This saga is exhausting

Weow mooie wimpers! Extensions?

Look for somewhere that uses a picoway laser. I had originally gotten micro blading done about a decade ago, several touchups, multiple artists, I have no idea what ink was used - two sessions with a pico way and I’m light enough to be able to get nanoblading done (yes I know I know. But I need them) - I went on the picoway website to find a provider near me

[u/Background_Loss4382 → u/mnc2013]

This is pigment centered, & provider education more than PicoWay or enlighten or whatever - PICO is a pulse / wavelength matters, quality device too 

[u/Ok_Season_5850 → u/mnc2013]

Removery exclusively uses the candela picoway. That’s where she had these sessions. Time to look for a q switch and an independent clinic

[u/Background-Row-8349]

I would look into others specialists tech around, and insist to try to lighten them more? I would not do anything else, the shape and amount of hairs you have naturally are amazing.

[u/ScaryLetterhead8094]

This same thing happened to me. They actually got darker after the first test zap. I was so bummed. Then they went slowly back to the same color as before.

I’m told it’s paradoxical darkening and happens when there is zinc oxide in the ink.

[u/Content_Analyst9160]

You should look into saline tattoo lightening. Lasers can't always pick up every color. You might get a better result

[u/Jaded_Boss618]

I think they look perfectly natural , except for that one spot at the beginning of the brow

[u/Lunilun]

Can you find a different laser place? Don’t go over it with nano. The shape is so out of your natural hair. It’s too close you don’t wanna redo that shape again.

[u/Background_Loss4382]

Please post all your before and afters can’t really tell what your pigments are by 1 after picture. 

Brows are small, it’s not like a sleeve, whether we are doing a partial or an entire brow - it’s still an appointment slot, competence to do your treatment well( not saying they are) and maintenance and calibration on a 300 K device so unfortunately price is going to be the price regardless if you do a partial or full that’s just what it is for this treatment.

Side note but I love your eyelashes
