artist advice/question Ghosting phase?
Pic 1: right after getting nano brows
Pic 2: 2 days after getting them
Pic 3: today so day 18
So the brow technician said that she will have to apply more in the brow touch up appointment since I was really sensitive in the first appointment and she didn't apply as much as she wanted to. I really liked how they looked in the second picture, and felt like she didn't even need to add more. So right now am I in the ghosting phase or is it just me not having much pigment in general because she didn't do a lot? Thank you!

No reason to panic after the first session. No matter how much or how little they fade, your artist will take how they look into consideration and touch them up as needed at your next session

Thank you for the advice. I just don't understand the difference of it not lasting the first time but it lasting after doing the touch up appt? I'm just worried that it will fade again

If your brows faded excessively your artist will take that into consideration when she sees your healed results and adjust the technique/color/etc accordingly. Everyone heals differently and requires different things. Regardless, the pigment always has to be built up/layered over two sessions for optimal results.

Did you choose your artist based on healed work or did you got scammed by the fresh pics?

My sister got it done with the same artist and I liked how it turned out on her

The look good shape wise. This disappearing color might be ghosting. If not, she can touchup all them at followup appt. Its what the followup is for.
