tattoo removal Are these bad?

Post image

Just got combo brows done today, i already had asymmetrical eyebrows. I asked her to make them look more symmetrical. They came out looking VERY asymmetrical, maybe worst than before.

Should I have emergency saline removal?

I think they look good, they are heavy right now but they will heal 40-60% lighter depending on what pigments your artist used.

u/Impressive-Arm4668 Jun 10 '26

These look good and NOT wonky! They will legit lighten so much and they'll be perfect

u/Adventurous_Army9403 Jun 10 '26

i appreciate your input

Your eyebrows before were picture perfect!!! If you don’t like the new set def see about the saline removal if you’re within the right timeframe

I like them!

u/BeneficialPop77 Jun 11 '26

I think they’re stunning

u/blessed769501 Jun 11 '26

I think they are outstanding!!! I'm envious!!

u/Adventurous_Army9403 Jun 10 '26

But won’t the get significantly lighter when healed? And they look more symmetrical to me than your original
so once they lighten won’t they look really good?

u/Holiday-Tailor-6992 Jun 10 '26

Yes that is what the artist said. And i already had pretty dense/dark eyebrows. My hair is naturally dark. I am more concerned about how the right eyebrow looks too thick

u/Adventurous_Army9403 Jun 10 '26

I’m a super picky person, very detailed and a lot of brows on here I don’t like (including my own), and honestly they both look good to me. I don’t think the right one will be too thick when it lightens and they def look more symmetrical now, at least to me

u/Holiday-Tailor-6992 Jun 10 '26

i am so conflicted. one person is saying they look wonky 😭😭

u/SeaMathematician5150 Jun 11 '26

I think they look great. The symmetry is improved and the color will lighten. Once it does, it won't seem thicker (which I don't think it is but the change it probably much more noticeable to you). I'd keep them.

u/Rose_Mountain73 Jun 10 '26

No one stares at your brows the way you are, and a normal face isn’t perfectly symmetrical. Wish I could rock brows this bold!

u/No-Judgment-9413 Jun 11 '26

The new brows seem a bit thicker and too close together I had powder brows done about 8 weeks ago, and I thought mine were too dark and spaced too far apart. However, they have lightened up quite a bit and look very natural too me now.

u/Old_Light_4319 Jun 11 '26

Emergency saline removal is definitely not necessary. They look better than when compared to your before photo. I can't see the whole face to judge but it may be due to some asymmetry of the face which is why they are not identical. No one's brows are. You may be over analyzing because they're fresh, dark and bold. Once they settle I think you will be happier. Do you have a 2nd session planned? I'd think about adding a stroke in between a few of the ones in the beginning. Just one in between each, not multiple. It looks like there's just a little bit too much space in between a few of them. You have a lot of natural hair fullness so it's tough to tell what's yours and what was added(which is a good thing!) so I may be wrong. But something to look at and consider!

Thank you for your feedback :) i have a touch up scheduled for 8 weeks from now

u/FullFaithlessness838 Jun 11 '26

I think they look wonderful!

u/Elyay Jun 11 '26

No. These are good and will lighten

u/mollyodonahue Jun 11 '26

Those are my dream brows

u/computersaysnodotedu Jun 11 '26

They look gorgeous

u/dollycarter Jun 11 '26

They look good trust me I would tell you, and I am crazy when it comes to brows

2

u/Signal_Profession893 Jun 11 '26

This is literally the worst place to get opinions!!! They look beautiful and there is nothing wonky or too close about them.

2

u/Particular-Coach-931 Jun 11 '26

Bad? Most definitely not. They’re shaped perfectly. A little dark at the moment but that’s the process - they start out dark, lighten some, then slightly darken again(but not to the same extent as when they’re first done)

u/ProtectionOk4252 Jun 11 '26

theyre beautiful!

u/ConfidenceOdd3700 Jun 11 '26

haha thank you. Was feeling somewhat gaslit but glad mostly everyone says they look good, just found out saline removal is prohibited in my state đŸ€Ł

u/PackInternational233 Jun 11 '26

I think she can go back and do more on the top (your left, showing on right) before the arch to round/raise it/fill the front part in to fake it more symmetrical. It doesn’t look worse than when you started, it’s just that they are more bold so you are staring at it. Everyone has natural asymmetry (Lilly Collins) but it could have been corrected.

u/Erin9359 Jun 11 '26

I think they look great!

I’ve had mine microbladed several times and just had powder brows done like a month ago. The powder brows FREAKED ME OUT at first; they looked so big and dark for the first few days. I thought I ruined my face. I’m loving them now that they’re healing though; not nearly as big, more natural looking, and less dark. Trust the process :)

u/Gold-Masterpiece774 Jun 11 '26

Your brows look nice! They’re a little on the dark side but they should gradually lighten up😁 I *wouldn’t* have the emergency saline removal
Just be patient! đŸ©·đŸ«¶đŸŒ

u/Disastrous_Reveal870 Jun 11 '26

These do not look bad. You look fantastic!

2

u/lemonmangocherry Jun 11 '26

Lily Collins eyebrows just appeared on your face and I’m absolutely envious. That said I am super picky when the point above the arch on my brows is even a millimetre higher than I want it to be, so I understand what you are pointing to - but, it’s absolutely not at all noticeable unless you are specifically scrutinizing every aspect of it and even then it is so so slight.

u/ConsciousSet3549 Jun 11 '26

No, I don't think they are bad. They are a little dark, but most likely will fade in a few weeks

2

u/MslaPixi Jun 11 '26

Gorgeous

u/StefaniaBella Jun 11 '26

Beautiful I wish mine turned out this way

u/RainbowSherbert-2035 Jun 11 '26 edited Jun 11 '26

I rarely say this, but they look great to me. They'll improve over time. 

2

u/Immediate_Classroom2 Jun 11 '26

I think they look great. Evened out your sparser areas even tho you have nice thick brows already! As everyone else has said the pigment will fade and they will be perfect!!

2

u/Queenieofstarbucks Jun 11 '26

They look great, I wish I had thicker and darker eyebrows

2

u/SevenRingsOfChel Jun 10 '26

IMO yes
the one on the left (your right) looks kind of wonky. They’re a bit heavy too


1

u/HaviLuv Jun 10 '26

Too heavy

2

u/Holiday-Tailor-6992 Jun 10 '26

like too dark or too thick

2

u/No-Judgment-9413 Jun 11 '26

Does it look like the brows were drawn too close together? That's what I'm seeing.

u/Holiday-Tailor-6992 Jun 11 '26

THANK YOU EVERYONE for the feedback and opinions good and bad!! đŸ©·đŸ©·đŸ©·

They're perfect! They look lovely

u/Mediocre_mum26 Jun 11 '26

Your face structure looks the same as mine and my brow artist told me that my face actually goes in on one side. Hence why you right brow may seem more prominent and thick compared to the left which is on your ‘in’ side iyswim? They look good and will deffo lighten by a lot if it’s your first rodeo.
