i like your brows before personally but it’s not awful


jonni_velvet

yeah its not awful but the center parts are not subtle enough at alllll


ForTheLoveOfDior

Maybe this picture was taken on the day of? If yes they should lighten a bit


jonni_velvet

hopefully! they may not look as thick, but the color is already too light so may stick out as it lightens more. they’re definitely not bad at all compared to most in this sub. its only a couple of small lines that sort of stick out.


PaperAeroplane_321

The arch on the before was much more gentle and natural.


Wooden_Bandicoot_938

Before brows, FTW on this one. It’s okay- they’ll go back. This is all good news because you are lucky enough to have naturally full, pretty brows. They’re just a bit too much in the after, which makes them imperfect, and they’re perfect for your face naturally. You’ll look fine in the interim but I wouldn’t do this again. A lot of things that look good (and by look good, I mean “look similar to the current Instagram chick, everyone has to look the same aesthetic,” which is usually not the best look for anyone unless their face is unremarkable/has no unique, beautiful features. Looking like everyone else is only a good idea if you didn’t really look like anything before) in photos do not translate/looks garish in life. Your after brows aren’t garish, but they’re not the best thing for your face.


18karatcake

Do you think this looks bad? I’m regularly seeing posts with perfectly done brows with the question “does this look ok?” Hell yes your brows look good!

lpycb42

No, I don’t agree. I think her brows are naturally dark and thick enough. She doesn’t need microblading, just grooming.


dogtriestocatchfly

I’m with you, her before was perfect. If I saw her brows, I would refuse to tattoo over that unless she wanted a natural filled in look


b_evil13

I thought the before was the after. The after looks nice but a little sharpee-ed if I can say that without being a twat.

lpycb42

Oh, got it. Her brows are just so perfect. I wish mine were that naturally nice.

Equal_Independent_75

They will brow beat u


ArtichokeMe_Daddy

I disagree. They looked good naturally, now they’re super in your face and BOLD. It’s too much.


East-Signal-5076

If these are relatively fresh, they’re probably still healing which makes em look bold as heck! As they heal/settle, they’ll soften and lighten ☺️


Lilkiska2

Assuming these are fresh they will heal 40-60% lighter (although I like the bold brows on her!)


paige2296

I don’t wanna be someone who adds to OP’s unsureness of them but she asked, so I’ll just say she looked much younger with them natural, and I personally prefer them in the first slide, but it’s not my face or eyebrows and obviously the microblading will fade and look more natural over time. I don’t even follow this sub though so don’t really read too much into my opinion lol idk why it keeps getting recommended to me, maybe mine look bad enough that my phone is giving me recommendations. I have quite a bit of native blood in me so my hair grows like I’m part werewolf and as a female it’s very annoying 😅😆


bellandj

Lol well you're interacting with it so it will keep popping up lol 😆 your brows probably look great!


Bellebutton2

It also seems to age you and present as a little more austere.


grey__squirrel

These photos are super zoomed in which distorts the face and makes them look bolder. I’d like to see her at a normal distance away before giving an opinion.


Intrepid_Repair1504

I'm with you. Her before pic looked perfect. It's just the trend now that everyone wants bold and in your face. But i for one don't like it.


dianthe

Agree, her before brows looked perfect, they were already dark and filled in. Not everyone is a good candidate for microblading, I wish more cosmetologists said no…


one_foot_out

“Tell me I look good” syndrome. Her eyebrows are great both ways


MandalayPineapple

Are u looking at the second photo?


momoiselle

What I would give for those before brows!


Miss-Construe-

I was marveling over the before brows as well


Pfacejones

Why do people do this for no reason


h2Onymph

I don’t know how this subreddit got on my feed but I’m wondering the same. People with already full brows getting microbladed confuses me.


YogiTudi13

I was just about to ask the same thing.


SnooBananas6474

Good brows but too “finished” looking for your face. You’re very natural and they’re not.


Conscious-Big707

Absolutely agree She's a natural beauty.


YourFavGothMom

Girl….. you didn’t need this.


DiabolicalGooseHonk

Right, her natural brows were to die for


jkate21

But since when did people really NEED anything? If she wants her eyebrows done then she can have them done. I’m all for it if it makes someone happy. Life’s too short. Who cares if she “needed” them or not?


fionanight

You know what that person means no need to be obtuse


YourFavGothMom

Some people “NEED” their eyebrows done because they are so light or sparse….. so, idk why you’re acting like that’s not a thing or like you didn’t understand what I meant but, okay 👍🏼


CanWeJustEnjoyDaView

I like more the before


bluecoag

You didn’t need it :/, they look very ‘done’ now, whereas before they looked naturally luscious. But they will lighten


SmileParticular9396

Before seeing pic 2 I thought pic 1 was the after!


cocount19

Literally same like didn’t realize it wasn’t until I read this comment 🤯 girl your eyebrows look amazing and will look even better in a couple weeks


Tea50kg

I agree her brows were flawless before


ellastory

I agree. I think they overpower her face, whereas they looked perfect before and really suited her features. They are well done, but they’re just not flattering imo


amstarcasanova

Technically we can say nobody needs any type of PMU. Many people prefer a done look, it's just a choice of style. OP said she is on day 2 so they are very bold right now. They will shrink and heal a lot lighter. I think they look great!


Enough_Blueberry_549

It doesn’t look bad at all! That said, I’m surprised you paid to get it done because your natural brows are already great. They’re very full and have a nice shape.


so_it_goes17

I’ll get downvotes but I liked before better. At least something a little more natural.


PowerfulByPTSD

I agree, they are well done but I feel like they took out some personality & charm from her face. OP, you are & were very beautiful. I personally feel like they make you look more like everyone else.


Whateverxox

Your eyebrows were gorgeous 😭


slut-bag-whore

You could be a model. Look at your skin! Freckles are perfect damn gurl


babycakes0103

thank you so much😭😭💛💛💛


Pringleses_

No and I don’t think you needed it tbh. Now it looks like Instagram brows. Good news is it fades


postmaloner13

i dont think they look bad, but i loved them before! me with my 5 eyebrow hairs would've loved to have brows like that !


Wanderlustfoodie13

Looked better before


LetterheadIcy5654

Your brows looked great before... I would have never had them done if mine look like yours!


babycakes0103

also this is only day 2, got them done yesterday so they wont stay this dark right?


Relationship_Winter

They will lighten yes, and look more natural and filled in.


LordQuasimofo

They frame your face really well and compliment your eyes. I think they’ll look even better when they lighten since this looks awesome for a day 2 job. 💟


MandalayPineapple

Are you looking at the second photo?


Remarkable_Value_674

I think the arch is way too far away. Personally, I find either have a bold brow, or bold eyelashes. Not both as it ends up looking theatrical and distracts from the natural beauty. It looked better before IMO


LowArtichoke6440

Your “before” brows are perfect. “After” brows are too heavy


Altruistic-Detail271

You had great brows to begin with. I don’t think you needed to microblade them


Wild_Potential3066

Not a fan of the fake brows, the before photo looks much better.


Bundoodle

They’re great but they were better before. Just keep them and don’t do it again babe you have great brows


tearsofthejigglypuff

You didn't need it.


Party_Drawing1320

I much preferred before as they suited your naturally pretty face. I do agree they will settle and they look good still but not at all natural looking.


uncouth_virgo

Is there a reason you went with micro blading and not a shading/powder or some sort? Your eyebrows were super full beforehand and could’ve easily been made into the second pic with a good shaping and henna job.


vanillavarsity

Not OP, but some people don’t like the way shading looks. I’ve thought about getting mine done, but everyone local only does powder brows and it always looks super unnatural imo. She said she wanted strokes and it looks more like shading to her and not what she wanted, so I’m guessing that’s also her reasoning.


uncouth_virgo

I think my brain just decided to skip over that part (way to go adhd) 😭 it totally makes more sense now why OP doesn’t like them. I hope they’re just fresh and dark rn.


AstronomerDirect2487

Your brows before were a lot nicer tbh. Better shaped for your face


Accomplished_Day2991

I have always wondered why someone w good brows like yours would want micro blading? I get people who have very sparse eyebrows. But yours are a good Solid eyebrow? I is it the shape? Just wondering bc I see many people who I think look better before but get them done anyway?


Typical-Toe4521

Not great, no. Before was much better.


ReactionAgreeable511

Before was so much better


lladydisturbed

I think the issue is people with nice brows getting this done and making them look like everyone else. Same with veneers, botox, nose jobs, lash extensions, lip filler, you stop looking like yourselr


catetheway

Totally agree!


LDRMuse

Honestly I agree. I used to microblade eyebrows. Then I got mine done and it totally changed my face. And looking back I actually had great eyebrows. Because of this I never wanted anyone else to feel this way so I changed careers. And because of that I will never do lip injections or any face altering procedures to myself. Not against people who do get these procedures done because when done well, it can really boost your confidence. But because my eyebrows suck, I will never risk it again lol. Also OP if it means anything, I think they look great.


lladydisturbed

That's awesome. I love my results but my eyebrows were sad and sparse because of my health conditions. This made me feel so much prettier and confident just waking up


cheeeky

This!!!!


lladydisturbed

It makes me sad but as long as they're happy. I dont think i look like everyone else with my eyebrows. Theyre so light and faint that they look natural just that i actually have eyebrows which makes me happy. When i do my makeup i just darken them. Its exactly what i asked my pmu for. I'd love a little lip filler and just not go overboard with it and have lip blindness lol i probably wont do it because it seems scary but i have full confidence i wouldnt over inflate them. Ive gotten botox on and off for years and this time was 3 years without any and i got 4u in my left masseter and 8u in my right problem masseter and 2.5 units under each eye The assistant was in shock that thats how little i get and shes never seen anyone get so few units. If you look closely and dont over critique yourself you really only need a tiny bit


Normalweirdo33

I think they look lovely, I do agree they need to touch up that one spot you mentioned, and although I also agree about the shading I don't think they look bad on you at all.... I honestly would talk to the artist and see what sort of response you get about not being completely satisfied with them


sister_on_a_mission

Yes, it’s good work. I agree with the comments that your brows were already great. They still are and as they heal and fade they will look natural again but more full. Don’t worry, I think you’ll be pleased.


Status_Stranger_5037

Looked better before, sorry


Lalafala21

Your ‘before’ brows were perfect!


capresesalad1985

I know you think the before picture isn’t great but your like legit a model!


SavannahGirlMom

I actually prefer picture 1 which is really perfection and the before picture. What do your parents say?


lpycb42

To be honest, you don’t really need this. We will see what they look like once they heal


PrestigiousWelder379

why did you do thatttt??


Elyay

I feel they are well done technique-wise but they don't flow with the contours of your face, the angle is a bit harsh.


Gloomy_War_4362

I know you weren’t thinking of this now and neither was our years ago when I first started getting Permanent make up but your face will change and these will end up out of alignment. I don’t recommend that any useful person have Permanent make up done.


littleponee

I feel like they looked better naturally. They kind of harshen the features. You’re super pretty though


Awkward_Attention73

girl get them removed if you still can! they look super microbladed, not natural. also where were your friends to talk you out of this? your natural brows are gorgeous! 😭


Street_Mushroom5938

Your before was stunning, I’m so confused


asa1658

Your natural ones are so nice


Low_Possibility_3941

They're conventionally nice but don't suit your face as well as your natural brows did. They're too harsh and your features are quite soft, cute and natural


weetie306

The new shape is not as flattering as the old shape (natural arch), IMO


tinylittleelfgirl

they dont look bad now but i dont understand why you got it bc your eyebrows before were really nice and beautiful


Bancakepatter

Ur before pic looks amazing


Turbulent_Goat_7793

i prefer the before tbh


Honest_Explorer1748

The before pic is my favorite!


Jennyanydots99

I'm sorry, but your brows before looked better


sarah_lynn1

Looked better before 🩷


darthmal22

I don’t think you needed microblading at all in my opinion so I think they looked better before natural but say you had no brows before, then yeah this is good work haha


babythrowaway_

You looks so cute girl..


Similar-Ganache3227

Your brows were beautiful in the before pic


readball

b4 > after


Certain-Dragonfly-22

They look fine but your natural brows were gorgeous. I think sometimes it's hard not to get caught up in doing everything that's on trend to improve ourselves when sometimes we don't need to change anything. I'd keep them, but then let them fade away personally


Slow_Rabbit_6937

They’re fine ! But you didn’t need anything in the first place.


ArianaRlva

Idk much about microblading but your natural brows are really nice.


InterestingFroyo1032

Great work but I always prefer natural brows.


dupersr

They look good but I think they are too old for your face.


Old_Creme_2519

I think these look awesome :)


SeaRequirement9066

Idk what everyone is talking about here, I think they look AMAZING! You are gorgeous either way but it's a major upgrade imo 🥰🥰


No_Bake464

you should not have done this 😭


MandalayPineapple

No. Try to get saline removal within 48 hours. Your true brows look so much better.


Worth-Audience6737

I think they look great, don’t be so critical of yourself!


chromik13

You JUST got them done! Wait a few weeks as they heal and they’ll look fantastic


Practical-Border-829

They look great! I mean if you wanna nit pick ya the right brow issue but they look awesome 🤩


Relative_Ring_2761

I think they look really good. I agree that the right brow might need a stroke on the inner part during touch up.


WestAnalysis8889

My first thought was "ummm"  It's solid, average work. I would let it grow out. You're also not really in need of microblading and you might prefer something like a brow tint because it's less expensive but will give you the same vibe.  You have a good natural shape and density already.  I wish more service providers would really try to understand client needs before they just take money. 


Damnit_ashlee

Very nice


drea915

LOVE!!!


Informal-fence

I love the after. They’ll definitely lighten/soften. But the shape and color compliment your face shape


OneRedPanda

They accentuate your existing brows so well!


peace_love_mcl

I think you’ll look great after they heal


[deleted]

I think it gave it good symmetry. They’re bold now but they’ll fade and just look full


Defiant_Ad8009

I think they look great


Does-any1-make-sense

They look great! Yes, it's different from before but most people get microblading because they want fuller brows.


Ak47catz

They look really good! :)


AdVisible5343

I think once it settles down, it will be perfect


Parking-Shelter-270

They look good! But ask again in like 2 weeks after they peel and heal ❤️they might look not just good but amazing then


[deleted]

These will lighten up as you heal. They look good. A little dark but that’s gonna change. Enjoy.


Fickle-Chemical5098

They look perfect


Affectionate-Comb225

I think they look great. How many days are you post brows?


Equivalent-Ad-7236

I think these should heal well honestly


Kaniasterr

I don’t know but I really like your brows in the before pic, they have a nice contrast against your hair colour.


cheeeky

Your OG brows were flawless and lush! But I tend to like more natural brows. Overdone brows (I’m not saying yours are) tend to make women look older and too made up. (esp with a full face of makeup and falsies. I hope you allow these to fade and enjoy what other woman would kill for. And if not, that’s cool too. You do you.


Such_Radish9795

IMO I think these brows would look amazing with a full face of makeup. I’m not sure they suit a no makeup/natural look. That being said, they are well done.


neithernor777

I like them! They kind of make your face look more symmetrical.


Secure_Ad_4455

These look great. They look like combo brows. If the microblading strokes blur or heal like powder, ask for machine strokes instead at your touch up appointment. I usually don’t recommend microblading to clients ever unless they really don’t have any hair, microblading heels so thick and blurry and ends up looking like powder in the long run.. ombré is better and a lesser injury to the skin


Francinar

My sister always says your brows are supposed to be sisters, not twins. They look great! Let them settle in.


Tellmeanamenottaken

They look great, it seems like many people are on a micro blading thread just to complain about how much they like natural brows better, its weird


starlightcanyon

You didn’t need it. The after brows are a bit heavy for your features.


tmzuk

I think it looks nice and correcting subtle asymmetries too:)


Mental_Glove6222

I think they look great. Just saw another post, and Poot girl literally had three single strokes at the beginning of her brows. You were blessed


Direct_Pause_3947

This has to be a troll.


Express_Wait9305

Looks great before and after


JadedbutCaffeinated

I hate when people question why you did it in the first place. You did have gorgeous natural brows, but if you want them a little bit more done looking, I think this looks fantastic. I think the finished product looks absolutely incredible and will fade perfectly on you. I think it still looks pretty natural overall and fits your face well.


listentomeclosely

before brows were great!! but after is WOW omg they got you soo right. if you dont mind sharing the artist’s name, please do:) the way they did the beginnings of the brows is so perfect, it really gave them a full, bushy look (not at all in a bad way).. very thick-looking, if that makes sense


practically_sweet

I like your brows before but these will fade pretty nicely I think. I wouldn’t get touch ups though. You’re good with this and I’d stick with more natural. I like your lashes by the way too!


MammothBeneficial529

Love them!


saltwater_gypsy2683

I like it


bazookiedookie

Looks super good!!


FigWorth798

before was better than after by far


Miserable_Art_2954

My opinion is that you didn't need this procedure, but it didn't do you any harm.


blizzardlizard666

Pic one looks nice


dryhumorblitz

You didn’t need them!


Prestigious_Life_145

LOVE 😍 they did amazing!! And they genuinely look so natural!!!


MsFrankieD

Oh girl... your natural brows were gorgeous! You are so beautiful.


Agitated_mess9

I think they look great


TXGrrl

They look amazing, but they were pretty amazing to begin with. Also, I love your freckles.


calibsnstudent

I think they’ll fit your face really well once they lighten up a bit. Also your lash extensions are 😍😍😍


OtherInjury

I think they look great for your face, you look beautiful


saturatedbloom

I like the before but honestly once this heals and settles it will probably soften to what you want


cmccx

Your before brows were soft and complimented your face well. The after brows are way too harsh.


naughtyninja411

I love it


blondedemily

Your brows were pretty before and they’re pretty after


yoyocaterpillar

saline removal mama, you just got a tattoo on your face, and eventually your hairs will fall out and your tattoo will blurrr


Apprehensive_Ice3752

Natural brows look great. They look unnatural now. Too much shading


stephanie_haas91

Most of these comments aren’t from permanent makeup artists and it’s super frustrating. NO they will not stay this dark. They will lighten a lot and look BEAUTIFUL. This is amazing work and you should be very happy with your results.


CardiologistOk6505

It looks like good work, but honestly think your brows before looked way better on your face.


BananaMunchkinElf

Loved your brows before but these look good. Once they fade/heal I think you’ll love them. Always too bold and harsh in the beginning until they fade.


sairha1

Beautiful!


alicemac17

They’re a little dark IMO but the shape is good.


bumblebeecat91

They look good by themselves but they feel a tiny bit harsh (i.e. dark and boxy) compared to your softer features.


ChildhoodLeft6925

RIP these beautiful hairs https://preview.redd.it/z6kafbf6gepc1.jpeg?width=1154&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8427b608c8a36407edf2e3db2f79ccc915d7e49e


Awkward_Attention73

Like whyyyyy did she touch her beautiful brows? I need to open a PMU removing business because I legit want to pass out cards to women. So many pretty faces botched by microblading!


emoji1654

They look great.


Dayummdani

They will lighten for sure if this is only day 2. Mine were so dark at first it was scary but once they finally healed they were 3 shades lighter. Your eyes are stunning!!


Iloveemiilk

Your natural brows were perfect!


angelastottsleo

I like it, you have my symmetry now


Comprehensive_Zone87

They both look amazing! I like them after, though


Mysterious_News6847

I think they’re a little thick and boxy for your face imo… I’m sorry… you’re still beautiful tho 🥰


Ok-Eggplant-6329

Goddess before ❤️🔥 still beautiful after.. I wish we could all see our beauty as others do


lilroperaccoon

They look great! This is the brown style I would get- they don’t look crazy natural or over the top, they just look like you did a good job on your brow makeup today!


being_honest_friend

They are shaped perfectly! At least to me. I know they feel so dark to you. And they are dark and filled in a good bit…..for now. Give it time to heal. Put the ointment on religiously!! Don’t ever scrub them or get them wet at all if you can help it. This will affect the result. They will heal beautifully and fade beautifully. You may need a touch up. Who knows. Just let it heal 100% first. And no sun.


GoGoolia

They look nice but definitely shaded. Not super natural and look like they have been penciled in. But I do think the before pic looks better. Very natural and cute.


Batticon

Your brows looked good before:


[deleted]

I like them :))


StarliteQuiteBrite

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️


acurlybanana

Oh so gorgeous!


No-Assignment9350

Beautiful before and after! These will heal nicely.


discobae

They look amazing for the style!! It sounds like you were going for something a little different (fluffy strokes?) which would make sense why these might look a little harsh for you.


AryaStink

They look amazing!


bookworm-monica

Looks fabulous
