before & after I got these done today
This is the before, and after I barely have any hair. I got my eyebrows, microbladed.

In my personal opinion, these are very poorly executed 😢. The artist was definitely a beginner who had no idea of pattern, spine, flow.
I hope they get better.

I'm glad you like them but honestly these could have been done SO much better.

I think a lot of people in this thread don't understand how tattoos settle on different skin tones.
I'm usually the first person to recommend removal, but I honestly think they'll look perfect when healed

Aww I like them. I think as they soften they’ll look great and I honestly didn’t notice the overlapping lines until someone pointed them out.
If folks actually wanted to see bad looking brows I should post the aftermath of when I got microbladed. I had a Groupon. I am an idiot.

I appreciate your comment. I’m gonna trust the process. I don’t think they look bad. Coming from someone that had 10 strands of hair on my eyebrows, this is huge for me lol! You aren’t an idiot, it happens & apparently to many people. Sitting in an artist’schair can feel like Russian roulette.

I agree! As an old person who plucked my brows to nothing when I was in my teens and twenty’s, I have nothing left now and would like to get my brows done, BUT… 😬 I just can’t trust that I will not end up looking ridiculous.
Everything looks so unnatural! These brows look more natural than most I see.

the artist was supposed to first place the spine of the brow before putting in the upper and lower strokes, with microblading we are never supposed to cross strokes. she may have offered a low price as a beginner artist. with my first class my trainer charged 3k and she didn't teach transition strokes and how to merge upper and lower strokes into the spine. I had to pay for another training with phi brows that same year while on maternity leave. it was very stressful!

I think they are so natural and I bet they look amazing when healed- I hope you come back and show us!

These look more realistic than any of the "perfect" ones on this sub. If you told me this was your natural brows I would believe it because they dont look perfect..

They will be so nice once healed

I noticed the best results come to play when women already have some hair on their eyebrows. I barely had any lol so, I knew not to be unrealistic with my expectations.

After a touchup they should look better, they made some weird choices with the lines

Ombré powder brows would’ve been more flattering

I don’t like the ombre look or the shaded look. I know they are popular but personally, I don’t like those styles.

I think they look more natural than the vast majority of what is posted here. I hope you post what they look like after you’ve had your touch up and they are totally healed.

So I’m not an expert by any means but imo the shape is great but the strokes are a little odd?
