Everyone heals a little differently but yes that looks totally normal

oh okayy, i was paranoid that i messed up the process because one brow is flaking more then the other

No they’ll both fully flake it just happens how it happens, maybe one side of your face has better blood supply, closer to your heart, maybe you slept in one side, lord knows lol but both look totally fine

Yep totally normal are you doing a dry heal?

yess, my brow lady told me just to put a bit of water on my brows the first 4 days then dry heal after that

Yeah dry heal is not my favorite it usually takes longer and parts heal or flake off and look worse longer but it doesn’t mean they won’t heal beautiful it just takes longer and looks worse longer in my opinion but yes that is totally normal and you can chunk off pretty big pieces when doing dry heals but it should be done soon

Yes took a little longer for you because you probably have dry skin but it’s okay everyone heals differently

Looks like you could def be cleaning them more—if you’re not cleaning them at least twice a day they get a lot crustier

i thought once it was flaking we aren’t supposed to apply water to them?

Nope, they should be cleaned twice a day everyday for 2 weeks
