Microbladed eyebrows...too dark..help

[herecomesthesummerr]

So I decided to go for it and have my eyebrows microbladed. I like the shape but wow they are so dark. She did say they would fade up to 30% but does anyone know when they start to fade. I'm not suppose to get them wet for 7 days but I'm tempted if it means they might fade a bit.

Definitely don’t get them wet. I had mine and I was so shocked how dark they were but they definitely fade after they start to flake away. If you want to get rid of them you need to a saline solution done (by the tattoo artist).

I would say mine went down maybe 2-3 weeks after.

I won't wet them they were too expensive to waste I just really wish they'd fade. I'm back in work next week and was hoping they wouldn't be as dark by then; they are really noticeable

It's normal. If they did them too pale at first they'd fade to nothing in two weeks. Whatever you do don't rub them or wash them or pick them. You will just end up with patchy brows and an uneven shape. Just be patient.

Don’t get them wet, you run the risk of infection. Trust the process. Day 2 is the worst. The scabbing will make them look much darker than the end result, you’ll see the true colour 2 weeks after you had them done.

Well mine were too dark three years ago and they are just about okay now. I would never have them done again and wished for a long time that I had had them removed straight away. Sorry

Trust the process!! Microblading emotions are basically:
Day of: Oh looks good!!
Next day: My God they’re dark!
Next few days: They're getting darker! This was a huge mistake!!
After 10 days: Phew! Love them!

Are you sure they are dark or are you hyper sensitive to the colour?

Why not get a view from a friend.

Be patient, after a few days you will see the scabs falling off and it will look lighter and more patchy, some hair strokes will disappear altogether and then you will start to see the true colour around 7-10 days afterwards. Most people have a top up after a month to even it out so maybe you might not want the top up.

I'm at a work event on Friday and was hoping they would have cooled down by then
One friend said she doesn't think they are that dark so maybe it's just me because I'm not used to them being so dark
