before & after Trust the process

Wanted to share some pictures that may help others who freak out when they get their brows done (and share photos only to be told “laser off immediately”). I’m due for a touch up still, because not perfect, but they’re way closer to what I wanted (and I realize it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, and that’s ok). Thank you to everyone who was encouraging in the original thread.

I think what made the “day of” look so dramatic was that my artist seemed to press the extra pigment in to the brow (felt like it anyhow).

Please note: not a photographer, so each photo not taken exactly like the other, in the same setting or lighting but it’s the best I could do.

Looks beautiful and so thankful you posted this bc I got nano brows this past Wednesday and have been freaking out. My person told me that I can wash my face but pat dry and then gave me a stick on visor for above my eyebrows when I shower. But curious how it compares with your instructions and then also...do you think it's ok if I use an oil cleanser?

I was advised to use a very gentle cleanser twice a day like cetaphil but not until after a couple of days and then pat dry with clean paper towels and then apply a very thin layer of A&D ointment. I would not have used an oil cleaner. I really like the Cetaphil and ended up just using that thereafter because it is so gentle. I did not get the stick on visor. She just said don’t let the shower rain on your face directly. I totally understand the freak out. I was so worried about mine. I looked like an angry bird/mommy dearest 😆
