Eyebrow microblading: reviews

“How do eyebrows affect the way the face looks, and the overall image! Both in a good way and in a bad way. I’m not very lucky with my eyebrows, because by nature they are light, they grow slowly, not thickly, and the shape that I would like could only be drawn. This is both inconvenient and not always successful. Bio-tattoo with henna and a whole arsenal of pencils / shadows / tints saved, but the effect was too short-lived.

Therefore, over the past few years, a couple of times a month, I have definitely thought about tattooing. I wanted the same beautiful and even eyebrows as in the portfolio of beauty salons. True, the reviews have always been very contradictory, and this is not henna, if a bad specialist comes across – write, it’s gone.

But in October last year, I saw the work of the masters of one well-known studio in St. Petersburg and realized that I really want to get my eyebrows done and I am finally ready to take a chance! On the evening of the first day, my eyebrows hurt a little, and it felt like my forehead was swollen. The feeling was the same. At first I was even scared! There was some kind of weakness, buzzing head.

But the pill and sleep saved the situation, and the next day everything was fine. In addition, I did not take into account that the next day I had to go to work. At work, some just looked askance, someone asked questions about what I had done to myself, and only those who knew that I was going to do eyebrows appreciated and said that everything was not so scary.

“I wanted exactly the drawings of the hairs, so that they were like natural ones. Because I have few hairs of my own, my eyebrows are bald, I wanted density. When I was looking for a good master on the Internet, I noticed that there were no photos anywhere after healing.

But the photo immediately after the procedure looks very good, and it seems that the eyebrows will be like that. Plus, in the photo, the color is softened, not so saturated and bright, because the live eyebrows are very bright. I assumed it was a painful procedure.

After applying anesthesia, the master scratched the skin of the eyebrows (This is done so that it is better to anesthetize, because then an anesthetic cream is also applied). I certainly didn’t expect it to hurt so much.

When I got up, I was ready that his eyebrows would be unusual, but not so much. Eyebrows are rich, bright, stand out very much on the face, “like a Georgian.” About the form is not yet clear, the master asked how I am? I didn’t really answer anything, because this is not the result, when they heal, then the result will be.

I decided, I look like with eyebrows, I’ll see if there is still a correction, and we’ll fix it there. Going home, I seemed to be glad, but it seems that this is not quite the way I imagined it.”
