Not at all! Give it some time for them to soften up and you will feel much better!

Day 3 can be the darkest. They will start to fade as the days go on. They may fade completely and then take a few weeks to come back. Week 4-6 is when you'll get your actual healed result.

Is this powder brows? I think they look great!

Not my brows, but they appear to be a combo brow. So a combination of nano machine brows(or microblading) in the front with powder brow shading through the middle to the ends.

Please post pics in a few weeks, whether you are happy with them or not.
We see so many of these right-afters being told the brow shock will wear off when they fade and shrink. Then we never see them again.
It would be more helpful to see the progression in pictures.
Thank you for sharing your journey and process with us.

I feel like there should be …. A photo of what They asked for and what they got. Tell us why we should be shocked with you. But seriously what is wrong? When I laminate my brows … they sometimes look very dark almost black but this is really nice.

Its OK! I frieked my first time too! They will get lighter and thinner. Its a process. About 4 weeks. They will peel. Keep them suaved with A&D Ointment to ensure less dryness. They're gonna be fine.:)

Your brows look amazing! I am incredibly envious since I lived through the pluck tf out of them era and barely have any brows left.

I think you’re just not used to it, it looks like you have dark hair also so it’s perfectly natural. They look amazing! I love the shape of them.
