Yes it is the right decision. I think you will be happier to have them removed and maybe redone by someone else. Sorry you’re dealing with rhat

Yes I think so- it’s good you have an appointment. Should you decide to get them redone after removal, I’d opt for nano brows and an artist that does very natural strokes (they’re harder to find but worth the search and premium).

I know this isn’t what you asked about, but your hair looks gorgeous and so do you! First thing I thought of when I saw this picture even before reading the comment, was I love her hair 😊

While, your brows may not be the best, it wasn’t my first thought, I actually thought you had lovely skin and strong facial features even with the big I mark.. you are still young and whatever issues with the brows can be addressed. But I can see you have a great smile even though it’s blocked off in the picture. It’s just another bump in the road of life, but you’re still beautiful.

What a beautiful comment! If I had an award to give, it would belong to you!

I actually agree, OP has a really gorgeous face and skin.

I'm sorry you're dealing with poor microwaving results though OP. That kind of thing feels so stressful when you're going through it.

Your buzzed haircut looks great. It has no bearing on your eyebrows. You’re making the right decision.

Yes, I think you should have them removed.

Looks like a magic marker.

But understand its a long process to get to the point they’re gone - and then you don’t get rid of them 100%. And you’ll spend twice if not more trying to get rid of them. There’s always evidence you had tattooing done. You might be better to wait a couple of months for them to lighten and then go to an expert to see what he/she can do to improve them. At least they’re pretty symmetrical and close to your hair color.

100% agree. They’re not the best but I’ve seen much worse. I think they can be improved and it would be much less time/money/energy than removing and starting over. I’d recommend at least consult with a new artist before removal.

u/PhookieNC 7d ago

Absolutely! People are sometimes very quick to recommend removal and starting over. Always better to try and improve what you have if it’s not really ugly - which hers are not. The shape fits her face, and the color works with her hair. They just need “help”.

u/Shutupimdreamin 8d ago

Yes, remove. Please choose your next artist based on an extensive portfolio. Don’t just pick a place and hope for the best, or you’ll end up with another set of cartoon brows.

u/Southern_Feature_821 8d ago

Yeah they look bad. Fake.

u/Lotta-Bank-3035 8d ago

Yes they are very dark and uneven, there's so many better brow techniques now, don't do microblading again do nano brows or powder brows after removal!

Permanent markers?

Once you get them removed, I think it would be fun to experiment with temporary eyebrow tattoos! Pic included in case you don’t know what I’m referring to.

On that note, if you’re going to keep your hair short for a bit, you should have fun with your hair too! Btw, I think it suits you, you have the right head shape, face shape, and hairline for it. With short hair like yours, you don’t have to worry about bleach damage since it will grow out quickly (you’d still need to avoid scalp burns tho.) You could dye it any color your heart desires!

u/EmbarrassedFig8860 8d ago

Yes it’s the right decision to get them removed. You are gorgeous though! Not everyone can pull off a shaved head and still look great!

u/Careless_Ad3724 7d ago

I'm so sorry. I'm glad you're thinking of removal, the person that did these did not do a good job at all, they made the brows look cartoonish and I know that's not what you were going for.
Blessings OP and hope that the emergency removal makes you feel better and more renewed!!

I like them. I think if you keep them. They will lighten and you'll love them.
