Eyebrow Tint too dark!

I need some reassurance here. I've had my browns waxed and tinted today. I'm low maintenance with my brows, as in they are always a bit of a mess and I don't wear eye pencil etc. So I can't pull off the glamorous look.
I have dark hair and she only used medium brown tint but they are so 'there' and dark. All I see are brows! My partner is going to laugh at me when he sees them.
Please reassure me it'll fade...soon.

@TooManyPJs I don't know much about tinting either but was surprised she managed to fill in a few little gaps. She also does microblading and from her Facebook photos it looks very natural! I was shocked.
I'm in Wales. If you're near and would like details, let me know.

Your eyebrows look fabulous! I genuinely think you just understandly used to your old brows. I love the colour and shape. You’re a great advert for tinting.

They’ll fade and you’ll wish they were dark again.

Now I've seen pics, they look great - really frame your face and highlights your eyes.

I find having my brows done and lashes tinted I'm more confident to leave house with without any makeup. They're really not overly dark in my opinion, what a brilliant job shea done. Depending on her brand she uses - most of them sell retail products - HD brows do. She would be able to show you how to use it on your next appointment.

Honestly they look great!

Thanks again for the compliments! I messaged her to ask what brow pencil she used and she said all that she did on my brows was wax and tint, nothing else. She created the sharp edges with tint! However she recommended a brow product I can use.

As I suspected you are a bit far away 😩 Thank you though! V jealous of your lovely brows! Hope you are getting used to them. 😄

They look lovely!!

How long do HD brows last after tinting? I'm getting mine done soon but wondering about the maintenance. Thanks

I'm jealous, you look fab!

Your new brows look fabulous and really frame your eyes. I think just a shock to what you're used to seeing.

I also think they look amazing.

I had a similar thing, lady used the lightest shade, I thought I looked like a clown. No one else noticed!!

Yours look fine!! I’m very blonde - about a year ago I had mine done, they came out black. I looked ridiculous. I could see the funny side and got a lot off with nail varnish remover. I’d had it done before and never looked like that.
