How to lighten eyebrow tattoos

[oopsohdear]

Now, I don't need telling what a fool I have been, and no I will not be sharing any photos! 😂I just need some quick tips for lightening what looks like drawn-on-with-felt-tip eyebrows please. I am assured they will lighten naturally and more so with the help of retinol cream and exfoliation (including dermabrasion facials). I'm assuming I shouldn't exfoliate them until after they've healed? Is there anything else I can do, especially in the meantime? Foundation isn't doing much to help. I'm pretty sure there isn't anything else that will help but I'm clutching at straws!

Op please don’t panic. When you’ve just had powder brows they are very dark but please don’t worry - and don’t put anything on them! Least of all retinol. You don’t want to scar yourself!

just wait for the scabbing process to all happen and then to all fall off and you will see underneath a much lightened shade - so much so you might feel they are actually too light!

for now during that darker phase just try and make the most of your clearly defined brows and go for perhaps some cat eye eye make up perhaps or a bold lipstick. You could also wear some blue light glasses if your really want to draw attention away as the frame usually hides brows pretty well - this is what I did teamed with a bright red lipstick and this worked very well.

Ive just had mine done. So nothing - they will really fade and be lovely

I can agree with all of this. I went back and got a top up after my initial panic of WTF. They will look great.

Thank you for the reassurance. I guess I'm going to have to style it out for now and hope for the best (and possibly look at more drastic measures if the best doesn't happen!). Anyone willing to share photos from straight after tattooing and once they'd healed? 😀

Micropigmentation straight away and now

Dont follow the care instructions.do the exact opposite. Wash with loads of products, and use acid toner/exfoliating products. That's what i did and mine are fine now.

They aren't healed yet? If so, they'll look waaaaaay darker than they will end up looking. Just wait out the healing time. Honestly.

This is my before and after from powder brows
I didn’t touch my brows whatsoever and didn’t rub them, didn’t apply an products, or pick off the scabs or get them wet in the shower.
I would also encourage you to speak to your practitioner because I was alarmed at the red element and how bold the overall look was (you can see on my before photo) but she said this was all normal and would settle and it did.

Thank you - the pictures and reassurance are definitely helping! I only just got them done and they're not healed yet, so hopefully I'm just panicking prematurely 😁

Thanks again for the messages and for being kind. I really thought I'd get a roasting for being such a twit for getting eyebrow tattoos! 😂
I'm just wondering if anyone here had eyebrows that initially looked a shade of black but then turned a light brown (which is what they are meant to be) by any chance? 😳

My friends looked like the eyebrow baby from The Simpsons went first done but once they healed they were brown.

mine are dark. I was worried that they had a red tinge but all perfectly normal once healed. The first picture was straight after being done, I felt like I had sharpie on my face 😂😂😂 second picture was after healing but before top up.

Thanks again for the messages.
Eyebrow baby from The Simpsons is very apt 😂

How did your eyebrows turn out @oopsohdear ?
