To think my eyebrows looks atrocious?

I had them laminated and she put tint on the bottom section, the rest is just my natural colour.

They look like huge snails with a massive block colour right?

All I want is slim eyebrows but every beautician is obsessed with keeping my brows huge.

Beauty therapist here. They look poorly laminated to me, possibly over developed. Shape and colour look nice.

Could I have threading/waxing to make them thinned out a bit and then laminated to create the arch shape I want?

I really really despise the modern trend of heavy thick dark eyebrows. I’ve noticed it seems to be dying down a bit which can only be good news.

Having said that I honestly don’t think they’re too bad really. They do look a bit unkempt (and yes I did read your description of laminated brows but I’ve never seen that kind of finish before). I also agree that slightly thinner and with a bit of an arch would look lovely. You’ve got enough hair there - a good beautician should have enough to work with…, of course that’s only providing you can get them to forget about the black slug look for five minutes 😂😂

But honestly though they’re really not too bad. And I bet they don’t look so dark when we can see your whole face as it looks like you have very dark hair. Just a bit more of a shape/arch and a tiny bit slimmer and they would be perfect.

I have naturally dark thick brows which look like utter dogshit by the way because I do them myself. Most of the time I have a permanently surprised expression due to the fact I have the skills of a 4 yr old. So I’m only picking fault with yours because you’ve asked for honest feedback. If I saw you in real life I’d not even notice as they look fine. Definitely not the car crash you’re describing!

They just look like eyebrows to me. I wouldn't give them a second look if I happened to see you walking past.

When did you have them done? When I get mine coloured they are very dark and for 3 days my brows walk into a room before me. Then I subject them to normal shower washing/face wipes etc and the colour lightens and they look perfect for the rest of the month. I was told to not wash or cleanse them for the 3 days so they ‘set’, not sure if that’s correct or bollocks but seems to work for me. I just get them done when I don’t have anything important coming up for the next few days, don’t care about work, shopping etc but I wouldn’t want to go off to a wedding or ‘event’ in those days.
