To complain about my wonky eyebrows?

79 replies

motcar · 09/09/2023 17:31

I have went to the same woman for years for a thread and tint. This has happened once before and I haven't said anything. But after getting my eyebrows done today, I have noticed that one is shorter than the other and that they are both different shapes.

I am going to go elsewhere from now on but is it worth saying anything to her? I am so upset as feel they are a total uneven mess.

I once went to quietly complain about a haircut, wasn’t making a fuss, just letting the owner know. Because I wouldn’t let them cut it again, to try and make it right, she threw me out the shop ! I was so embarrassed, so no, I wouldn’t say anything. Just go elsewhere.

Oh my god, really? That's insane.

Yes, I still get flashbacks about it over 10 years later.

It looks like you’re raising one eyebrow. I’m sorry, I’d have to say something. Maybe even just send the photos and a message?

It does look like that. It's absolutely terrible. I just don't want her touching them again so wondering if it's worth it to say something.

Good grief they are horrendous, unless the look you're going for is permanently confused you will need them redone, not by that idiot but I would demand your money back.

Minfilia · 09/09/2023 17:53

First photo doesn’t look too bad… on the second the left side is…. Interesting

I have naturally wonky eyebrows, people really struggle to even mine out so I just gave up!

Why are you raising your eyebrow in the second picture, you can see from the crease of your eyelid that you are raising it.

The second photo looks exaggerated or edited. The first and third don't look anywhere near as bad. Faces aren't symmetrical.

No faces aren't symmetrical but they are supposed to look like two halves of the same person Grin

Can you text her or send a pic to her somehow?? They looks so uneven, at least they grow back! I just do my own, they aren't perfect but YouTube is a wonderful thing 😅

Depending on how able/confident you are, you can pluck them yourself to even them out (i.e. pluck the underside of the lower one and the top side of the higher one). Just be careful not to overdo it unless you want 80s brows.

(I also have slightly wonky eyebrows and this is how I even them out).

Okay thank you, I think I will have to do this

It looks like your eyebrows are naturally at different levels?

RedDoughnut · 09/09/2023 18:13

One side is lovely and looks natural.
The other ...can you phone in sick on Monday?

JMSA · 09/09/2023 18:14

You poor thing!
I would message with a photo and ask for your money back. Use the refund to get them done elsewhere.

Yes I would ring up and ask for a refund or to correct it.

I had awful eyebrows once.
They were literally both completely different shapes and even the receptionist gasped at me which I thought was odd but didn’t think anything of it until my DD pointed it out.

I didn’t complain and I don’t know why. I wished I did.
