I got these done Friday so im past the point of saline removal. I feel like it looks so unnatural. I got hair stroke only microblading hoping it would look somewhat natural and im a bit disappointed at the results. Now I feel like I look a bit crazy. Any tips to help lighten them? Or am I cooked
Just got home, I was convinced they'd end up too big and I'm a little worried, but most of me loves them and knows they'll fade, but they won't shrink 😬 let me know what you guys think
Also I've always felt they were asymmetrical and hoped this would fix that, guess it's a muscular/skeletal issue lol oh well
Happy with results overall, had zero expectations or experience going in. Felt it looked too bold/sharp at first and wanted it softened, now its healed, I miss some of that sharpness ahah
Curious to see what they touchup appointment is for and what she changes🙏
Hi! I got Vintage Maroon done on my lips a week ago today. If it never changed from this point on I would still be happy with it (seriously, the border definition alone is everything, my lips don't disappear when I smile anymore) but I am hoping it will fade/warm a little. It peeled day 2-4 and has just been tight/chapped/tender/slightly sandpaper-y since then. I was told to expect a "ghosting" phase around day 5, where the pigment fades so much I would "wonder what I even did this for," and then the final colour would come back and settle within a couple of weeks.
My issue is that it's still quite dark and cooler/more purple toned than I expected. It doesn't look bad--just too cool for my skin tone, and dark enough that I can't get away with no other makeup or I look unbalanced (it looks darker in person than in the photo). Not the end of the world as it's still a vast improvement to my invisible lips before and I seldom leave the house without makeup anyway. But I am wondering why it hasn't faded, and if some of the coolness is possibly just residual bruising and I can expect it to warm up a bit?
Anyone have a similar trajectory to mine who can chime in?
