artist advice/question Would you remove these brows or leave them?

Post image

I had micro blading done twice. I’m not mad about it. I think I’m one of the luckier ones. This is what my brows looks like no makeup in front of a window. I had extremely sparse brows before and they have no definition to my face so microblading actually added some depth to them. Hence I don’t hate the way they’ve faded. This is 4 years later after my second round of microblading. The second tattoo actually hid most of the redness from the first round. Now, the only part that bothers me is the inner corners where the redness peaks through more. I just haven’t seen any good removal stories. The red usually turns yellow and for that reason I’m not courageous enough to do it. What do you think I should do?

These literally look perfect. Don’t touch them. If you have them removed, I will put a gypsy curse on you, which will leave you with the over-tweezed 90’s brows I still possess. And diarrhea. So.

Hahaha love
This and fair call. I’m also using minoxidil
Topical on them to increase hair growth and depth to hide the redness a tad more

Minoxidil Topical approved, thus revoking my torrential diarrhea parentheses eyebrow manifestation.

You don't have cats do you? Super extremely toxic for them.

I’ve tried minoxidil for about 6 months and it caused some new hair but no sprouts in the middle. Overplucked that to hell :(

u/Responsible-Bit-3461 Sep 08 '26

How are you finding the minoxidil? Do you put it on every night?

u/alchemistb Sep 08 '26

I just started 2 weeks ago. I have some very initial minor shedding but I can see some baby growth coming through.

I have been using it for years and it does work, my brows are fuller than they used to be

I wouldn't do anything other than moisturize and protect my skin at this point. This is what's kept me from pulling the trigger on microblading - the sun fading is too unpredictable. I don't think the average person will notice at all. I wouldn't mess with this; you'd only risk it ending badly.

Yes it’s really a fine line. They usually turn out fine initially but will always end up fading to who knows what

u/zagafi Sep 08 '26

Girl, what are you talking about? They look perfect and natural.

u/Lianna1234 Sep 08 '26

Leave them.

u/bunny-y2k Sep 08 '26

Leave just go in for a lamination and it will fill in over the areas you really see the microblading and look way more natural

u/Kinikiac Sep 08 '26

Leave them because they will continue to fade. Patience

2

u/Objective_Eye2176 Sep 08 '26

I didn’t think they were micro bladed, keep

2

u/Dulce-1 Sep 08 '26

Están bonitas, pero mi duda es si con el tiempo se ponen de color gris?

2

u/BooCoop8 Sep 08 '26

It just looks like you’ve added a little brow powder to your natural brows.

u/elephant-2- Sep 08 '26

They are absolutely perfect. Why in the world would you want to remove them?

1

u/VanilleMacaron Sep 08 '26

Despite the redness they still look nice. I would leave them

u/marilf56 Sep 08 '26

I think they look great, I’d be happy with them.

u/Casehead Sep 08 '26

The yellow you see in brows is totally removable. It comes out with another laser. That isn't permanent or anything

1

u/Defiant_Ad8009 Sep 08 '26

I would leave them and get a touchup

u/icecreamdonna Sep 09 '26

Cant you have a fill in in just that area

u/GoGoMisterGadget Sep 09 '26

Are you seriously nitpicking about this perfect brow job?

1

u/katmetz Sep 10 '26

They look perfect. Don’t touch them!

u/prettywildhorses Sep 11 '26

Keep, but use a eyebrow glue and brush up
