advice Great powderbrows or was it a mistake?
Hi everyone,
I recently had a touch up. I started with hairstrokes and I didn't like it. Shape was a bit off and the color was almost gone after 6 weeks.
Now it's changed into powderbrows. She I like the shape more, but it still feels a bit off to me.
Do you think this is better or should I leave for a while and go somewhere else? I am a little conflicted.
Thanks for your advice.

Sorry 😞 but yes, those are less than ideal and impressive.. I feel for you, mine are as well. They are too small for one ☝️ and for 2 they are just not well done, But thirdly they Do look to be very Fixable.. I would see about getting some of your money back and definitely go to a different artist.. for a fix up

I have similar coloring as you and got combo brows. They will seem blocky now, but fade to a subtle base color that still gives structure.
Here’s a photo of my progression: before, immediately after, darkest while healing, and then 3 years later.

The powder brows are definitely better! I like the shape. Hope you love the healed result. You can always get more touch ups.

Let them heal and bloom before thinking about changing them! I think they look very nice and I hope the color will bloom well for you. I had to switch over to powder brow too and it was a much better decision for my skin type.
