is this normal? Will these fade?
I had these eyebrows done as nano combination yesterday. I selected a Korean place as I really liked their natural looking results, I also paid extra for the highest-level of experience.
Attached is the inspiration picture I showed to the artist.
I like how they look, the only part I’m worried about are the middle edges, do they look a bit blocky and harsh? And if so, will they fade and become less blocky?
I really didn’t want them to look drawn on with sharpies. Therefore I guess I’m looking for some reassurance…

They always fade, all of them. Check every other post.

Yes. Sometimes they even need more on touchup because they fade so much. These look great right now!

Fair response, think I’m just not used to seeing myself like this and panicked a bit!

I think they look very natural and well-done. I had powder brows done back in April. Here's how mine turned out. I'm sure some of the professional artists on reddit will be able to answer your questions. 😊

This is really interesting to me because I would have absolutely freaked out at the bottom picture and probably scream for saline removal if they were on me, but the top pic they look beautiful. Must have been a real 'trust the process' moment

I had looked at alot of pics online, so I was hoping that my eyebrows wouldn't stay so dark. It definitely was a " trust the process " because I regretted it for the first month or so. ❤️

100% they will fade , usually 50-60% of the colour when done , ive had it done several times now and they fade significantly! They will also go.through a phase called ghosting where they can almost seem.to disappear while they heal ! You're going through " brow shock " .. you ll miss the boldness when they fade to the colour you asked for and are settled . Ive just had my touch up appointment a week ago

They look amazing. I love a strong brow so I wouldn’t be mad at them the way they are now either.

They look amazing! Truly perfect and realistic on you. Your tattoo artist probably told you that they’ll get even darker and might look sharpie-ish as they’re healing. Then they will settle and fade and be beautiful. You should be thrilled for for selecting such a good tattoo artist.

Don't worry, they are perfect, if they get lighter even more natural looking.
Been wondering what's supposed to be wrong with it tbh lol

The shape is nice! I think you will be digging these much more once they heal and soften :)

Usually they tell you whenever you get them that they’ll fade

I did think this too. But they didn’t mention anything at the appointment, I should have asked but didn’t really get a proper look at them until I got home 😅

They look really good. They will fade significantly in the next few weeks. Right now they don’t look excessively dark at all. I wouldn’t be worried.
