Microblading - fading feedback

7 replies

Hi. Have you had microblading and they have gone away and faded well? Any positive stories?

I got my eyebrows micro bladed/ powder (combi) as I have sparse eyebrows. They are well done and soft within my eyebrow shape. Only on day 11 and already decided not to go for top up as dont want more ink.

Since getting them done however I have gone done Google hell and see so many horror stories. I’m now terrified they are going to fade red or grey and I’ll never get rid and look ridiculous. I have become so anxious and can’t sleep. I am in my 40s and very natural looking, feel embarrassed for doing this. Just looking for some positive stories

thanks

Mine faded v quickly because I have oily skin. But they weren't red or grey, they just kind of disappeared underneath my natural brows. I don't regret having them done.

My very fair daughter has her eyebrows micro bladed; not heavily, just to enhance her own almost invisible eyebrows. After a while they just get lighter and start to fade away - she's so fair they're fully visible even in their faded state under her own eyebrows. She has them topped up I think annually and is very happy with them.

I think those stories are probably old when the quality of the inks wasn't as good so might have faded with a reddish tinge. I wouldn't worry about it, microblading should fade very naturally now. Mine faded to a lighter shade of what it was originally and then I had it redone after 1.5 years.

Mine also faded due to oily skin. They've gone back to how they were before I got them done

Mine faded about a year after but are now red as are my sisters!

Oh no. sorry to hear that. Are they a fading red or do you think you need to go down a removal?
