Anything I can do to tone them down? Usually the place is fine but it was one of the younger girls who obviously thought she'd met my brief of not too outrageous please....

Head and shoulders shampoo is great for toning down dye - obviously be careful by your eyes!

More eye makeup helps a bit, gives some balance. And you could pluck them a bit.
Gove it a couple of days and they will calm down a bit/you will get used to them.

WFH today as can't quite face the - 'what happened to your face?' questions.... and my DH keeps talking to my brows not me...

I'll try head and shoulders.

I'm very fair.

Maybe you should just rock up at work at make like its a stylistic choice!

(as somebody with blond hair and Eugene Levy's eyebrows Id like somebody to make it the norm!!LOL)😅

dont do too much because they will settle down in a few days!

Give them a five minute massage with some oil, that should tone them down slightly. Or try patting a very light layer of foundation or powder over them.

I often think I look like Baby Gerald from The Simpsons and my eyebrows turn up about a minute before I do!

Anyway I use a bit of vodka on a cotton wool pad to tone down and then concentrate on washing my eyebrow area in the shower

Can you post a picture of yourself - just your eyes/eyebrows?

First time I had my eyebrows dyed, my son called me Frida Kahlo.

I agree with leaving it a couple of days and using a lot of eyeliner/mascara to balance it out in the interim. They do settle down.
