Would you be shocked by a 12 year old having their eyebrows microbladed?
The girl is a pretty 12 year old, who isn't incredibly fair or anything.

AIBU for being shocked?

I would be. I'm surprised the salon agreed to do that sort of procedure on a child.

I didn't think it would be allowed as it's classed as a tattoo, so they would need to be 18?

I think you have to be 18 it's a version of tattooing

YANBU, if nothing else it fucking hurts so why would anyone let their 12 yo do this?! (And also who would carry it out on a child?)

It hurts like hell. YANBU to be shocked.

The only reason I got one done at 40 was because I’d had years of crap waxing, plucking and threading.

No way should a 12yo need any kind of cosmetic surgery.

No way. If it’s not illegal, it should be.

The lady that does mine wouldn’t do anyone under 18. I’m sure it’s not even legal!

Yes that’s shocking and I would judge the hell out of the parents and report whatever salon did it as that’s illegal surely?

It was so painful when I had it, that's just wrong on a child. Surely it should be the same age as tattoos?

Thanks all. I did wonder if I was just really out of touch. Nice to know I'm not alone in finding it unreasonable
