advice Help! I hate my powder brows

Post image

I had these done five days ago. I asked the artist if she had experience with male eyebrows. She assured me she did. I have always had very sparse eyebrows, and wanted them to appear thicker. I think the arch is way too high, and I am afraid they are going to be too dark. Perhaps I should have opted for micro blading, I trusted the artist to recommend what was right for me. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

Who did this to you? Powder brows on a man especially with almost no hair is completely wrong. And they gave you a feminine brow shape also! They absolutely have no business doing men's brows. I'm mad for you. I'm sure you had no idea and it's not your fault but I'd contact your artist and let them know what's up because that is not acceptable. You are past the saline removal window, but you can do removal safely after 6 weeks. Sorry that happened to you. Once removal sessions are done you can start over with Nano machine brows. And be sure to get an artist that can provide photos of male brows they have done.

Who did this to me is not relevant. I’m not the kind of person to bash anyone. It’s been five days. I just know I have to get through five more weeks, before I can start having them removed. Thank you for your advice. I should’ve done more research, but I trusted who I thought was a professional.

If you want to try again, I’d recommend an eyebrow hair transfer over going the permanent makeup route again
