What to do when semi permanent makeup goes wrong?

Semi-permanent eyebrow correction - restoring confidence at Beauty Bar

Choosing the right semi-permanent makeup artist

At Beauty Bar, we often get asked if we can correct badly done semi-permanent eyebrows, and unfortunately, in some cases, the damage can’t be fully repaired.

We’ve seen an increasing number of clients coming in with bad semi-permanent makeup that was poorly done by inexperienced or unqualified technicians. These situations can be frustrating and disheartening, which is why we emphasise the importance of doing your research before choosing your permanent makeup artist.

Semi-permanent makeup is an investment, not just in your look, but in your confidence and comfort too. When choosing a reputable technician with a proven track record check reviews, view a portfolio, this can save you from unnecessary stress and disappointment down the line. In some cases, poorly done procedures cannot be fully corrected, so it’s best to get it right the first time.

Natalie’s Journey – From unhappy brows to beautiful confidence

Our lovely client Natalie is a perfect example of what can happen when semi-permanent makeup goes wrong. She came to us unhappy with her previous eyebrow procedure, feeling frustrated and self-conscious. Her experience was a real-life example of what everyone fears-badly done semi-permanent brows that were asymmetrical and didn’t suit her face or style.

We were able to work with Natalie to correct her brows, using permanent makeup techniques to reshape and recolour them into something she loves. The transformation not only restored her eyebrows but also brought back her confidence. Natalie’s story highlights the importance of choosing a permanent makeup artist. We’re so proud to have been part of her journey back to loving her look.

 

Why bad permanent eyebrows are difficult to fix

Unfortunately, not all semi-permanent eyebrows can be corrected. Pigment that’s placed too deep or in the wrong shade can be incredibly hard to fix without laser removal or multiple correction sessions. This is why prevention, by selecting a trusted and experienced artist from the beginning , is key.

How to get the best results with semi-permanent makeup?

Look for a portfolio of healed results (not just fresh work), read reviews, and consult with your artist beforehand to discuss your expectations and ask questions. Remember, great semi-permanent makeup is about subtle enhancement, not drastic changes.

What Natalie said

“I have been visiting Justyna since July 2018 for eyelash extensions. I was completely against extension and haven’t looked back since my first set of lashes largely due to the fact of Justyna’s professionalism and knowledge.

On my second appointment, I remember Justyna telling me about all the other treatments she offered including semi-permanent eyebrows. I was excited about this as I had my eyebrows done previously but they were faded and had gaps. Straightaway Justyna advised that to do my eyebrows I would need to have the old colour removed. This was something I didn’t want to do.

A few months later Justyna offered me to be a correction model. I was delighted. When I came for my appointment and unbeknown to me, considering I see my face every day. My eyebrows were wonky! One higher than the other and one thinner than the other! I cannot explain how odd they were.

Justyna wasn’t sure if she could proceed as they were so wonky. It was then she decided to freehand draw my new brows and see if she could get the shape and make them not so odd. All the way through checking I was happy with them.

Once Justyna and I were happy with the shape we went ahead. I was apprehensive at first as I did not have any numbing cream on, that said I didn’t want to take the drawing off. Justyna reassured me that I would be ok. I went through the whole procedure with no numbing cream.

I can say 100% that not having the numbing cream was absolutely ok. It is not painful at all and in fact, Justyna said it will help to keep the colour in by not having the anaesthetic cream.

When I saw the finished brows I nearly cried they were actually what I wanted and not odd! They are not identical but one is not higher than the other and they are the same thickness. The colour match was spot on! They look natural but ready to go! Not a reddish tone.

I highly recommend semi-permanent eyebrows! You can just get up and be ready for the day.

I got my original brows from a well-known beauty shop 3 years back and now from going to Justyna, I would not go anywhere else. I was talked through every step, how colour reacts and how to get the best results. The compliments just keep coming for my new and improved brows.

Thank you Justyna for being the perfectionist that you are.”
