A one had their eyebrows tattooed ? Would you recommend it?

Very line brows and regularly get them tinted and use either benefit or hd brow kit at home. I'm just intrigued as to how tattooing would be in reality? Do they go a funny green colour eventually? That's my main worry. Also would like a very natural look. Damn the fashion to go thin in my yoof ... Grrrr

I wouldn't, largely because eyebrow fashions change. You'd get a 'natural' look tattooed on and then everyone else would gave thin eyebrows again and you'd regret it.

Do it! I've had mine done; they fade over time, it's not as "deep" as a regular tattoo. I have to get mine topped up every six months or so. I think if you left them alone for two years they'd be away completely.

My eyebrow lady has a real thing about giving her clients "the eyebrows you should've had", and refuses to tattoo on a Scouse brow just because it's fashionable. She basically draws in a hair in the gaps between the real hairs, and no, it doesn't go green. That's what you need, an eyebrow woman with ethics.

A cousin, who was a longterm serial 'over-plucker' did this as she'd permanently wrecked her eyebrows.

I suppose they look OK, and not sure I'd notice if I didn't 'know' - iyswim. But, she did have to have them re-done to get the right colour for her complexion.

I think they look ok although my aunts has pink ones done ??

I had mine done and then topped up a few weeks later. It was rubbish. By the time the scabs came away (and I did all the aftercare by the book) it looked as if I had nothing done. I would strongly recommend HD Brows over semi permanent make up, mine was a very expensive disappointment. Confused

I had mine done a week ago, they're starting to settle and fade now and they look great, I'm so pleased. Pretty much what TheCraic said is how I had mine.
