Thank you for sharing! I recently had my eyebrows done combination (microblading and shading) back in May. They have healed but I don’t like the shape that she drew (the result looks different from what we had discussed). So I’ve been trying to search for different methods to remove them. Where are you located?
Hi, I am in Massachusetts. I am sorry to hear that the experience was not good. If it’s not too dark you could actually try to find someone who is specialized in correction. Removal may not be your only option . Look around in your area and if you can’t find anyone message me at our website and perhaps I can help.
After having had semi-permanent make up. Eyebrows eyeliner and lip liner. I would never recommend it to somebody! I would show them my procedure and say you don’t want this! Completely destroyed the look of my lip line. I did not expect that. I had a crisp youthful lip line/vermilion border. I don’t get cold sores. but having the lip liner procedure destroyed my lip line and made it look scarred. Changed the texture of the skin. My eyebrows are too dark and slightly too close together and the colour has just all blurred together and looks like a faded black colour. My upper eye liner is uneven. The bottom eyeliner is uneven too but at least it’s lighter. I dont believe there are any really good removal techniques. I had one “phi” removal. I believe it was the saline treatment but my eyebrows didn’t budge. I had went in for a consultation after my first set of eyebrows at a laser place and they did a little corner and it actually made the pigment go darker. If I wouldn’t have got the second set of eyebrows done as a “fix” I believe the original ones would have completely faded because they were more of a peachy orange colour by the time I got the second ones. But now the colour that I have is a dark undertone. So maybe a laser would work but I really don’t want to risk scarring or damaging my skin any worse. My opinion is that semi permanent make up ages you adding any dark marks to the face creates a certain harshness and overall older look. I would not recommend these procedures to anybody unless I really didn’t like them. Lol. So. Now I just wait for them to fade. It’s already been years tho. I think I’m stuck with it. To most people it doesn’t look too bad. But I regret it. It’s sad that you go in for something that’s supposed to make you feel better or more beautiful and it has the complete opposite effect instead making you feel self-conscious or ugly.

So I’d like to share my story, when I was very young just in grammar school my mom started tweezing my eyebrows because back in the day, Twiggy was a beautiful model and all the girls wanted their eyebrows to look like twiggy. I didn’t pay much attention to that, but my mom did and needless to say my mom tweezed my eyebrows and as she’s my adult and she’s my mom, I’m like OK she knows what she’s doing. When I was older and I was going to get married, Brooke shields natural eyebrows were the in thing. I’m gonna ok I am going to grow my eyebrows, but they didn’t grow back in, and I had to consistently and constantly fill my eyebrows in with eyebrow pencil. This always came off, if you sweat, or you slept, it didn’t matter it always came off. I was always embarrassed by my eyebrows, and I decided one day I would go to a tattoo artist to do my eyebrows, because it dawned on me, I can get my eyebrows done permanently. Well that didn’t work outside so well, because at the time I was young and had very very very dark hair and I told the tattoo artist, to do it in black and eventually it turned blue. Then one day my son came up to me and said mommy I wanna grow up and have blue eyebrows just like you. I was devastated and embarrassed, so I found a color correction tattoo artist in San Antonio, as I live in Texas and she actually used orange ink to counteract the blue and it took almost a year and she was able to correct them. But, it was very painful, it was very long and at the end I was I was very grateful as it turned out nice. Well after 7 years, they do fade and I wanted to go back to her because I needed them to be touched up and found out that she had passed away. She had a sister that also did the correction and she did my eyebrows and put them on and they looked really good, but when she was done they were a little bit thicker than what she drew on, I wasn’t happy. The shape was nice, but it was thicker than I wanted, and after a while they started to turn from dark brown to a reddish color. What a disappointment, I was going to go back to her and found out she also passed away. Now I’m stuck with eyebrows that I am still not happy with after 30+ years of trying to just have a nice eyebrows.
Hi, thanks for watching. I did mention on the video that it’s case by case. I myself will remove dark old PMU with a solution all the time but sometimes it is so dark and so deep that a laser with be less invasive to the skin then removal by a solution. Hope this helps.
2 years earlier had ombre brown black and don't like, because the form look to down, what product can use to remove ??. I see in your link and see lighting , can I use that??
Hi, are you licensed to perform procedures? It is not recommended that you attempt removal yourself as a layman. Please seek professional removal. However if you are a professional in this field then please use lighting and the correct needle configuration. Thanks.
I have an African American client with light gray of Microblading, I used biotuch remover but after 5 weeks turned to dark brown 😢😢😢😢 What should I do know ?????
Hi, thanks for watching. Sometimes on African American skin such removal can cause hyper pigmentation. Most of the time it’s temporary and you would have to wait 60 to 90 days for it to subside. Keep watching it and hopefully your skin color will return to normal. If it doesn’t you would have to treat the hyperpigmentation and perhaps go to a dermatologist to address the issue. Hope this helps!
Hi I have unwanted cosmetic tattooed freckles the product you have for sale the lightening is that something I can use at home by just applying it over the area?
Hi, it’s actually a product use only by professionals to implant into the skin to pull color out. I would see if you can find someone local who can help you remove them or find a good laser technician. Hope this helped!
Hi, a had black eyeliner put under May eye that I regret as I aged. I was trying to tattoo skin color on top but it did not work what would be the best advice that you can give me? Also where are you located? I am in South Florida
If your brows is faded and it is a light hue of blue, correction may be the better choice. If the brows are solid blue and still completely saturated perhaps a removal is the right choice. Talk to a professional who is well versed in correction and removal to determine which way to go.
Hello Pigmenta, I am in Berlin and I have gone to the best place here to do an enzyme lift of my 10 year old eyebrow tattoo. The first round did lighten but not as much as I was hoping for like one shade.. Should the tattoo be 80% lifted with one treatment or is this normal for such an old tattoo?
Hi, I don’t know too much about enzyme lifts. We use saline and yes you will see a 80% reduction of color unless something went wrong during the healing process. Hope this helps
Hi, try this: www.rejuvi.com. That is the product I use. I am sure they can recommend a technician around your area who has been trained on it. Good luck!
Hi, laser removal can work great, however you have had a lot of work done to your brows so without seeing them, it is hard to tell if you are a candidate for laser. Hope this helps.
Hi, first do not panic. Most likely they will fade to a manageable color. You need to wait 4 weeks at least. If they are still not to your liking then you need to contact your tech. Hope this helps.
Hi, if they are black and solid you need them removed, not neutralized. Your tech should so that now. It’s been 3 months. I would love to help you. Let me know which state you are in. We are in MA. Hope this helps.
Hi, this will work on Microblading or shading or any type of harsh or misshaped previous eyebrow work. It does not matter how long ago that was. Hope this helps!
could you tell us what happens if someone gets phiblading or microblading they like and just let’s it fade after their first two sessions (initial and touchup)? could it hypothetically just fade away over the years? could it smudge?
Hi, thanks for watching. Eventually most microblading will fade overtime unless it’s too deep. In that case the color could migrate and create a blowout (aka smudging). Also the deeper you implant color the more ash the color appears. So hence sometimes you see eyebrows fading to green or blue. Hope this helps!
Hi, thanks for watching. Depending on what it looks like you can either remove it completely or actually color/shape correct. If you are not close to us. We are in MA. Then I would do thorough research and find a technician who is specialized in removal/correction. Is not hopeless but make sure you find someone experiences to deal with the case. Hope this helps.
Hello - looking to remove eyebrow tattoo in Chicago. Been three years and regret it as it is too “strong” and makes me look angry. Would love any referrals to laser or removal (I am E Asian) in Illinois (Chicago area).
Hi, I am sorry you had a bad experience. I do not know anyone personally in the Chicago area however please visit www.Rejuvi.com and they will have a listing of the closest technician to you. That is the solution I use to remove unwanted permanent make up. Hope this helps!
I had microblading done 2 months ago over old ones. When time for my touch up the artist refused she said she was tired of taking all my money for something that's not working out. I really need a touch-up. One eyebrow is long on my nose and uneven. What do I do now?
Hi, I am sorry this happened to you. I think you know by now that it is not a good idea to just cover an old tattoo with a new one. First off: most technicians will do a touch up free of charge. It’s strange that she refused to do that. But at this point I would try to seek someone who is experienced in correction. Make sure you ask for pictures. If they are legit they will have many examples for you to look at. Try not to go to someone who will just go over the color again with another color. Good luck 🍀.
This same artist did my eyebrows 3 year's ago and they we're beautiful that's why I went back. I was expecting the same turn out. But not this time. Only if the one was a touch shorter off the nose. Thank you for the reply.
Ok I understand. The only option you have left really is to let it fade out overtime and perhaps use concealer meanwhile to cover up what you don’t like. Also see if in your area there is an academy teaching correction. Perhaps you can get in as a model at low to no cost.
@@PigmentaTV I am new to PMU artist, I did black brown pigments on eyebrows, turned out not even and now I want to fix smaller, what should I do? Thank you
I had mine done nearly 15 years ago and have turned a dark(ish) shade of blue. I wouldn't even know where to begin to look for a knowledgeable technician in my area (suburb of Chicago). It's too bad you don't have people you've trained that are located throughout the country. 😞
Hi, there is slight risk for hypo pigmentation for those with darker skin tones. That’s why it’s important sometimes to not draw too much pigment out. Instead perhaps one session and then combine it with a color correction. Also scaring or a change in skin texture is minimal, however if the previous tattoo caused scaring to begin with then those areas with be exposed after the removal.
Also I heard that when doing saline removal the brows are likely to turn red (esp if the pigment was cheap pigment). I’m worried about the fact that the brows may turn red and making it even harder to cover up even if I want to do color correction afterwards. If the brows do turn red after one session, will there be more problems when it comes to color correction? Because currently my brows don’t look weird color wise I’m just not sure too happy with the shape + don’t really want to keep microblading for the rest of my life.
So yes, the brows will turn red but it is temporary. The redness subsides after a few months. If done right, color correction can be done right over it. For many brows is a necessity so upkeep is only about every year.
I got my eyebrows tattooed 25 years ago!!! I want them removed, I went to a specialist for laser removal but he said I would have hyperpigmentation because I’m brown skin. What can I do at home to remove them they are starting to look greenish black? Help
Hi, he is correct you would not be a candidate for laser. If the pigment is faint then all you need to do is find a technician who can color correct the area with an orange correction pigment. There is nothing strong enough for you to remove the color as a layman. And it is not advised to do anything by yourself. A professional is necessary. DM me and let me know where you live. Perhaps I can help you find someone. Hope this helps.
Color correction is where the color gets neutralized. If you came into our establishment I would not recommend removal for you. Dark skin will always run into hypo pigmentation whether you remove it with laser or pigment remover. If you don’t mind that then you would go to: www.Rejuvi.com and look for a trained and skilled technician near you. Just keep in mind that you may have technicians not willing to remove your old tattoo.
@@PigmentaTV will rejuvi.com be able to help me with color correction also, I’m assuming neutralizing means having the color blended into your skin, correct?
Hi, in this case you would need to neutralize with both orange correction color on the inside and green correction color on the borders. Hope this helps.
Oh no! Did you have laser removal? I just had laser today and she explained the laser can turn the ink funky colors. She only did a few spots and said let’s see how it looks in 10 weeks.
So if I like my brow shape, but it’s way too dark… I could get saline removal to lighten the black, then color correct after with more ink, for a more flattering brown? Thank you so much!
@Vic S from the pigment, they obviously didn't know what ink to use professionally, I think they're meant to use non oxide ink which doesn't turn pink
@@PigmentaTV ok thank you so much! I’m going to order some, I wanted to try a new solution but it looks like a cream tube so wanted to make sure the cartridge would take it! ❤️
Hi I did the eyebrow removal in overseas couple months ago, but I just did one of my eyebrow. I live in Orlando where can I go to do my other eyebrow? Thx
Why do you pass the eyebrow photos so fast and so small? We need to see them much bigger (all screen and a much longer time. We don't need to see you talk.
Thank you for the feedback! I have noticed that people want this in depth information because it’s not out there. For those who had it done and have to live with it and don’t know what to do, this information is really valuable. For those not effected this may be lengthy.
Hi prooja, i had 3 sesions of tatoo, they work great in removing the ink, the hair will grow back rhe problem is, is very painfull, i have no been able to sat there and let them them zap the entire brow, i can only stand about half of the brow, reason why i had more visits, i had taken maybe a percoset or strong pail maybe with 2 sesions they will be gone, my tatoo was bla ck, age bluish grey, i hope this helps.
I have a client who wants only rounding of her brows as she says the initial procedure she received was too squared. What kind of precision can you expect for reshaping?
Reshaping can be successful with removal in the squared area. She may need multiple sessions and if the removal leaves her with some kind of mark you can camouflage that area with skin color. Hope this helps.
Hi, I am sorry about your eyebrows. The reason it turned green is either because the ink was implanted too deep in the first place or because too much ash was used in the formula. Find someone who can correct it. Usually an orange correction color is used to fix the problem. If it’s solid or it has shape edges you might need a removal. You can definitely do something about it. Hope this helps. 😘
@@Morenasmoochez Hi, depending on how many session you need each session will be between $500-$1000. Most people need two. Another option would be to inquire about laser removal if you are a candidate for it.
Hi, there is someone in London. You want to go on the website. www.Softaps.com and look in their directory. You should be able to find them. Good luck!
I need to remove my color white yellowish corrector de put on the end of my eyebrows but they said laser can't remove that because it can turn black can you pls help me
Hi, I am sorry to hear that. There are tattoo removal creams out there for sure but any product that functions by "bleaching" or "peeling away" the skin can have some serious side effects, especially for dark skin tones. So be sure you know about the risks. My recommendation is always to talk to professionals who are specialized in removal or cover up. I hope this helps!
@@PigmentaTV thank you so much. I’m just doing my normal skin care routine and noticed that it’s lighten up already. Because the other technician that i know she doesn’t wanna do it specially it’s still new. She told me to come back a year from now 😩
I did tattoos on my eyebrows yesterday with black ball point ink.. And guess what I ruined it.. And the black dots literally look like infection in my eyebrows skin.. What can I do?.. I didn't inject the ink too deep into my skin. Will it come off gradually? I'm using Apple cider vinegar there
Hi, we never recommend to tattoo the eyebrows yourself. Using non conventional ink or pigment is not something where the outcome can be predicted. I suggest you go to a permanent makeup place to have them look at it. Hope this helps.
@@PigmentaTV well thank you so much for your reply.. It came off on it's own.. I used apple cider vinegar.. The tattoo was on the superficial layer of the skin.. Maybe that's why it came off real quick
Hi, I don’t know anyone off the top of my head but go to Softap.com and look at the technicians list. Whoever works with their products and removal will be safe. Hope this helps
I’ve had a handful of laser sessions in the past which has taken me from very dark brown to a mixture of gray and green. I desperately want to get rid of the green gray but don’t know where to turn to know what to do next. My goal is to have light brown brows to match my hair color. Can I do a zoom consult with you to guide me in the right direction?
Hi, absolutely! We take zoom consults nationally and internationally. Please call our main number 7815351570 to set that up. I would be more then happy to help you. Thank you!
PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM INSURANCE BROKERAGE is the best. They specialize on in permanent makeup. From regular to advanced procedures. Mention us! Hope this helps.
I have been using Bio touch color lift product with the neutral color. It works great with machine for corrections. Some clients have to do it for a few sessions. Now the scar tissue cross my mind, if they come back every 4 weeks you think will create the scar tissue?
Hi, thanks for watching. I am glad that you found a product that works for your clients. Scaring is always a possibility but just understand that microscopically you are always scaring the skin whether you tattoo the skin or remove color. Some work that you remove from other techs who are heavy handed and implant the color too deep may expose the scar when you remove it, however you can also cause scaring if you yourself are going too deep during removal. I would recommend to perhaps wait longer then 4 weeks to go back into the skin and see what it looks like before another session. That is why we try to remove only once or twice and then we cover the tattoo with correction color. This technique is more gentle. Hope this helps.
@@PigmentaTV Thank you so much. The client is not going to have any tattoo covering. I was trying to help her to remove unnecessary inks area her brows, we’ve already done two sessions. It seems lifted and lighter now. However , I can still see the shadow underneath. Is it safe to do another one in 4 weeks? ( this time will be the third session) we waited 4 weeks. I was hesitating to do it again thought it maybe create the scaring. If we waited longer will that help to heal better? Or in a better result? 🙏
Hi, if correction covering is not an option I would definitely wait longer then 4 weeks this round. 4 times is actually a lot and you may want the skin to properly regenerate. I would say 2-3 months. The nature of any removal is that it will still remove color overtime. You may be interested in learning how to cover up if you now can only see a shadow. It would be ideal to just no do a color correction of either red/orange or blue/green of what is remaining. Hop over to my tutorials to check it out. Good luck in helping your client.
I had my micro blading and shading removed with the PiQO4 a few days ago and it took the blueish- black micro blading out but it turned orange. It still looks better than the dark brows. They say come back in 10 weeks to get the orange out. Is that true? Can they take the orange out that was left after the Lazor removal?
Hi there, it is totally normal to be left with the red pigment after laser. Let it heal. Most likely it will normalize a bit. If not. Try to find a tech that can color correct then. Hope this helps!
@@PigmentaTV when you say heal? After the Lazor removal I didn’t have any issues. I don’t think I have anything to heal. No peeling or burns no nothing. Just some orange left behind.
The skin takes about a month to rejuvenate and for the new layer of skin to come to the surface. That is what I mean by healing. I am suggesting to wait until you have a complete cell turnover to see if redness is still there. May subside by itself.
This is true. I had laser removal with Picoway Laser and my brows were Dark brown before the treatment afterwards I was left with the base color which was red. 😳 it was a bit scary lol but once you understand how lasers work you just accept it and cover with light makeup until next session. The laser absorbed every pigment except red because lasers work by colors wavelength. It will target certain colors first for example black is one of the easiest colors to remove even though it sounds contrary. Red is one of the hardest colors along with yellow and orange. I believe this is because it’s closest to our skin color. But even red ink left behind will get absorbed by the Pico laser. I had my eyebrow tattoos removed with only a few sessions. The Picoway Laser does not leave any scarring because it literally only touches the skin less than nanoseconds. It is similar to when you pass your finger through the flame of a candle you do not feel any pain because of how fast you flipped your finger through. Don’t get me wrong you still feel a little pain but it’s more like the flick of a rubber band against your skin. Hurts a lot less than Microblade in. But then again it all depends on your pains all arms it’s not very painful at all it’s very tolerable and if you ice your brows before hand you won’t feel much. Looks like fresh skin afterwards.
I got ombré brows about 3 years ago wrong shape, wrong colour and when I tried laser they turned orange so removal was stopped. Have tried saline removals but they don’t fade much. Wish there was some type of treatment I could have to remove them asap!
Hi, I understand your situation. With removal, whether it is laser or Celine solution a follow up treatment as needed you need to find a technician who can neutralize the area with a green pigment. After that you can either leave it alone or re-pigment the area. Hope this helps!
Hi! I just had my eyebrows tattooed using both the powder and hair strokes technique. Sadly in the middle where the hair strokes are, I find it a little too dark and too blunt. What can I or the person that did the tattoo do about that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
Hi, I am sorry to hear that. That person would have to know how to correct their own work and not just put more color over it. There is really nothing you can do yourself to correct that. Hope this helps. If all fails, try to find specialist near you to pull the color out.
My biggest beauty regret was Microblading never again
Hi, thanks for watching. I am so sorry that you had a bad experience. If done correctly this is a wonderful option for people!
@@PigmentaTV absolutely.. this person was highly highly recommended.. guess I shouldn’t go by that next time but laser removal it is for me ..

Me too
Thank you for this video! They really should not call it semi-permanent, instead just call it a face tattoo. Because that is way more accurate! :P
Thank you for watching. In fact if you are licensed in any of the states you MUST call it a permanent tattoo.

Hi, I don’t in Berlin but I did train someone in Hamburg who is now doing corrections. Let me know if you want this contact. Thanks.
Email me at pigmenta@usa.net.
Thank you so much for your explenations.
I would love to know what color you use for your hair? And which product, thank you, your hair very beautiful, elegant 👍
Hi, thank you. I do love my hair too but I don’t do it myself. It’s my hairdresser! She did a balayage.
Thank you for the feedback! I really appreciate it.
2 years earlier had ombre brown black and don't like, because the form look to down, what product can use to remove ??.
I see in your link and see lighting , can I use that??
Hi, are you licensed to perform procedures? It is not recommended that you attempt removal yourself as a layman. Please seek professional removal. However if you are a professional in this field then please use lighting and the correct needle configuration. Thanks.
I have an African American client with light gray of Microblading, I used biotuch remover but after 5 weeks turned to dark brown 😢😢😢😢
What should I do know ?????
Hi, thanks for watching. Sometimes on African American skin such removal can cause hyper pigmentation. Most of the time it’s temporary and you would have to wait 60 to 90 days for it to subside. Keep watching it and hopefully your skin color will return to normal. If it doesn’t you would have to treat the hyperpigmentation and perhaps go to a dermatologist to address the issue. Hope this helps!

Hi I have unwanted cosmetic tattooed freckles the product you have for sale the lightening is that something I can use at home by just applying it over the area?

I had my brows done in October & don’t like them. Do you have a recommendation for someone in the metro Atlanta, GA area for removal?
Hi, go to www.Rejuvi.com and look for a trained technician who uses this removal process! Hope this helps.
I wanna remove too. Coz it getting fade blue.
If your brows is faded and it is a light hue of blue, correction may be the better choice. If the brows are solid blue and still completely saturated perhaps a removal is the right choice. Talk to a professional who is well versed in correction and removal to determine which way to go.
Hello Pigmenta, I am in Berlin and I have gone to the best place here to do an enzyme lift of my 10 year old eyebrow tattoo. The first round did lighten but not as much as I was hoping for like one shade.. Should the tattoo be 80% lifted with one treatment or is this normal for such an old tattoo?
Hi, I don’t know too much about enzyme lifts. We use saline and yes you will see a 80% reduction of color unless something went wrong during the healing process. Hope this helps
@@PigmentaTV I guess my next question is if you know anyone that does the saline lift in Berlin yet? Thanks so much for your quick answer.
Hi, try this: www.rejuvi.com. That is the product I use. I am sure they can recommend a technician around your area who has been trained on it. Good luck!

Hi i did Microblading was bad to fix it done tattoo was bad again to fix it done colour correct was bad ,, is the laser remover works??? Plz helpppppp
Hi, laser removal can work great, however you have had a lot of work done to your brows so without seeing them, it is hard to tell if you are a candidate for laser. Hope this helps.
I just had my brows done two weeks ago and they are a terrible shape and almost black, what should I do?
Hi, first do not panic. Most likely they will fade to a manageable color. You need to wait 4 weeks at least. If they are still not to your liking then you need to contact your tech. Hope this helps.
Hi … I had my eyebrows done in Dec. and they are way too dark (black) 😢. The tech offered to neutralize them after 6 months. Please help ???
Hi, if they are black and solid you need them removed, not neutralized. Your tech should so that now. It’s been 3 months. I would love to help you. Let me know which state you are in. We are in MA. Hope this helps.
Hi .. thank you so much for answering me I just saw this … I’m in Ga But she only offering to neutralize. What can I do ?
Is this advisable only for microblading? How about microshading that is like 4 yrs ago that is still very dark?
Hi, this will work on Microblading or shading or any type of harsh or misshaped previous eyebrow work. It does not matter how long ago that was. Hope this helps!
Thank you so much
could you tell us what happens if someone gets phiblading or microblading they like and just let’s it fade after their first two sessions (initial and touchup)? could it hypothetically just fade away over the years? could it smudge?
Hi, thanks for watching. Eventually most microblading will fade overtime unless it’s too deep. In that case the color could migrate and create a blowout (aka smudging). Also the deeper you implant color the more ash the color appears. So hence sometimes you see eyebrows fading to green or blue. Hope this helps!
@@PigmentaTV it does!!! thank you so much again!
Your very welcome!
Hi! My mother did her eyebrows tattoo but they did it very bad its too dark and also the shape of the eyebrows is so bad what we do now:(
Hi, thanks for watching. Depending on what it looks like you can either remove it completely or actually color/shape correct. If you are not close to us. We are in MA. Then I would do thorough research and find a technician who is specialized in removal/correction. Is not hopeless but make sure you find someone experiences to deal with the case. Hope this helps.

Hello - looking to remove eyebrow tattoo in Chicago. Been three years and regret it as it is too “strong” and makes me look angry. Would love any referrals to laser or removal (I am E Asian) in Illinois (Chicago area).
Hi, I am sorry you had a bad experience. I do not know anyone personally in the Chicago area however please visit www.Rejuvi.com and they will have a listing of the closest technician to you. That is the solution I use to remove unwanted permanent make up. Hope this helps!
Were r u from !!
I had microblading done 2 months ago over old ones. When time for my touch up the artist refused she said she was tired of taking all my money for something that's not working out.
I really need a touch-up.
One eyebrow is long on my nose and uneven. What do I do now?
Hi, I am sorry this happened to you. I think you know by now that it is not a good idea to just cover an old tattoo with a new one. First off: most technicians will do a touch up free of charge. It’s strange that she refused to do that. But at this point I would try to seek someone who is experienced in correction. Make sure you ask for pictures. If they are legit they will have many examples for you to look at. Try not to go to someone who will just go over the color again with another color. Good luck 🍀.
This same artist did my eyebrows 3 year's ago and they we're beautiful that's why I went back. I was expecting the same turn out.
But not this time. Only if the one was a touch shorter off the nose.
Thank you for the reply.
I have no more money to go anywhere else. I barely had that money.
Ok I understand. The only option you have left really is to let it fade out overtime and perhaps use concealer meanwhile to cover up what you don’t like. Also see if in your area there is an academy teaching correction. Perhaps you can get in as a model at low to no cost.
@@PigmentaTV I am new to PMU artist, I did black brown pigments on eyebrows, turned out not even and now I want to fix smaller, what should I do? Thank you
Aloha may I ask where ur located?
Aloha, we have 7 locations. Boston, Danvers, Worcester, Hyannis, Wellesley MA. New Canaan, CT and Tampa, FL!
I had mine done nearly 15 years ago and have turned a dark(ish) shade of blue. I wouldn't even know where to begin to look for a knowledgeable technician in my area (suburb of Chicago). It's too bad you don't have people you've trained that are located throughout the country. 😞
I am sorry that we are not closer and can’t help. Do you have a laser place near by? They can help you remove it.
Is there risk of hypopigmentation/change in skin texture with saline removal?
Hi, there is slight risk for hypo pigmentation for those with darker skin tones. That’s why it’s important sometimes to not draw too much pigment out. Instead perhaps one session and then combine it with a color correction. Also scaring or a change in skin texture is minimal, however if the previous tattoo caused scaring to begin with then those areas with be exposed after the removal.
@@PigmentaTV so with more than 1 session is there much higher risk of hypopigmentation/change of skin texture?
Also I heard that when doing saline removal the brows are likely to turn red (esp if the pigment was cheap pigment). I’m worried about the fact that the brows may turn red and making it even harder to cover up even if I want to do color correction afterwards. If the brows do turn red after one session, will there be more problems when it comes to color correction? Because currently my brows don’t look weird color wise I’m just not sure too happy with the shape + don’t really want to keep microblading for the rest of my life.
Yes, exactly but we do go in a second time if the skin can handle it
So yes, the brows will turn red but it is temporary. The redness subsides after a few months. If done right, color correction can be done right over it. For many brows is a necessity so upkeep is only about every year.
I got my eyebrows tattooed 25 years ago!!! I want them removed, I went to a specialist for laser removal but he said I would have hyperpigmentation because I’m brown skin. What can I do at home to remove them they are starting to look greenish black? Help
Hi, he is correct you would not be a candidate for laser. If the pigment is faint then all you need to do is find a technician who can color correct the area with an orange correction pigment. There is nothing strong enough for you to remove the color as a layman. And it is not advised to do anything by yourself. A professional is necessary. DM me and let me know where you live. Perhaps I can help you find someone. Hope this helps.
@@PigmentaTV Hi, I’m in the Maryland & DC area. What is color correction, I would prefer to have them removed
Color correction is where the color gets neutralized. If you came into our establishment I would not recommend removal for you. Dark skin will always run into hypo pigmentation whether you remove it with laser or pigment remover. If you don’t mind that then you would go to: www.Rejuvi.com and look for a trained and skilled technician near you. Just keep in mind that you may have technicians not willing to remove your old tattoo.
@@PigmentaTV will rejuvi.com be able to help me with color correction also, I’m assuming neutralizing means having the color blended into your skin, correct?
Hi, Rejuvi is just meant for removal of a tattoo. Most people need a combo. Removal first and then a color correction.
Where are you located?
Hi, we are located in MA
Mine are orange round the outside and blue in middle! Help
Hi, in this case you would need to neutralize with both orange correction color on the inside and green correction color on the borders. Hope this helps.
Oh no! Did you have laser removal? I just had laser today and she explained the laser can turn the ink funky colors. She only did a few spots and said let’s see how it looks in 10 weeks.

@@PigmentaTV thank you
So if I like my brow shape, but it’s way too dark… I could get saline removal to lighten the black, then color correct after with more ink, for a more flattering brown? Thank you so much!
Hi, yes that is what I would recommend!
I got lovely pinky purple skin on my brows 🤣 worst thing i ever had done
Hi, pink or purple can be corrected very easily. Try to find a technician who specializes in correction work. Hope this helps.
From removal or from the pigment ?
@Vic S from the pigment, they obviously didn't know what ink to use professionally, I think they're meant to use non oxide ink which doesn't turn pink
Is this cream a cream that you linked? If so, how would we tattoo into the skin? Or do you open the skin and then apply a coat and let sit?
Hi, it’s actually a solution you tattoo into the skin. The chemical then bonds with the molecules of the pigment and pulls it out.
@@PigmentaTV ok thank you so much! I’m going to order some, I wanted to try a new solution but it looks like a cream tube so wanted to make sure the cartridge would take it! ❤️
Ok so if you are using a machine then please dilute it with distilled water first!
@@PigmentaTV Thank you!! Is there a specific ratio?
Hi, like a thin milkshake. Does that make sense? Thin enough to go through the machine but thick enough to let the solution do it’s work.

How much cost for laser eyebrows
Hi, I am not a laser technician but I have heard somewhere in the range of $500-$1000.
Thnk u
Have you thought of maybe removal or color correction first?
Hi prooja, i had 3 sesions of tatoo, they work great in removing the ink, the hair will grow back rhe problem is, is very painfull, i have no been able to sat there and let them them zap the entire brow, i can only stand about half of the brow, reason why i had more visits, i had taken maybe a percoset or strong pail maybe with 2 sesions they will be gone, my tatoo was
bla ck, age bluish grey, i hope this helps.
I have a client who wants only rounding of her brows as she says the initial procedure she received was too squared. What kind of precision can you expect for reshaping?
Reshaping can be successful with removal in the squared area. She may need multiple sessions and if the removal leaves her with some kind of mark you can camouflage that area with skin color. Hope this helps.
Your voice sounds like Irina Shayk .
I hate my eyebrows. I got them done 8 years ago and she did them uneven. They’re kinda green now and I have to cover them with makeup 😩
Girl I feel ur pain I’m going through this too
Hi, I am sorry about your eyebrows. The reason it turned green is either because the ink was implanted too deep in the first place or because too much ash was used in the formula. Find someone who can correct it. Usually an orange correction color is used to fix the problem. If it’s solid or it has shape edges you might need a removal. You can definitely do something about it. Hope this helps. 😘
@@PigmentaTV thank you for that information, it still has the same awful shape just green. What’s the price range for removal
@It’s Maria so sorry to hear that!
@@Morenasmoochez Hi, depending on how many session you need each session will be between $500-$1000. Most people need two. Another option would be to inquire about laser removal if you are a candidate for it.

I had my eyebrows micro bladed 2 months-ago and it’s awful. I really want to remove it. Is there any diy at home i can do it? Please help.
Hi, I am sorry to hear that. There are tattoo removal creams out there for sure but any product that functions by "bleaching" or "peeling away" the skin can have some serious side effects, especially for dark skin tones. So be sure you know about the risks. My recommendation is always to talk to professionals who are specialized in removal or cover up. I hope this helps!
@@PigmentaTV thank you so much. I’m just doing my normal skin care routine and noticed that it’s lighten up already. Because the other technician that i know she doesn’t wanna do it specially it’s still new. She told me to come back a year from now 😩
It will lighten up over time. That is for sure. I guess until that time you can conceal it. Mechanical peels are safer. Like granules.

I have been using Bio touch color lift product with the neutral color. It works great with machine for corrections. Some clients have to do it for a few sessions. Now the scar tissue cross my mind, if they come back every 4 weeks you think will create the scar tissue?
Hi, thanks for watching. I am glad that you found a product that works for your clients. Scaring is always a possibility but just understand that microscopically you are always scaring the skin whether you tattoo the skin or remove color. Some work that you remove from other techs who are heavy handed and implant the color too deep may expose the scar when you remove it, however you can also cause scaring if you yourself are going too deep during removal. I would recommend to perhaps wait longer then 4 weeks to go back into the skin and see what it looks like before another session. That is why we try to remove only once or twice and then we cover the tattoo with correction color. This technique is more gentle. Hope this helps.
@@PigmentaTV Thank you so much. The client is not going to have any tattoo covering. I was trying to help her to remove unnecessary inks area her brows, we’ve already done two sessions. It seems lifted and lighter now. However , I can still see the shadow underneath. Is it safe to do another one in 4 weeks? ( this time will be the third session) we waited 4 weeks. I was hesitating to do it again thought it maybe create the scaring. If we waited longer will that help to heal better? Or in a better result? 🙏
Hi, if correction covering is not an option I would definitely wait longer then 4 weeks this round. 4 times is actually a lot and you may want the skin to properly regenerate. I would say 2-3 months. The nature of any removal is that it will still remove color overtime. You may be interested in learning how to cover up if you now can only see a shadow. It would be ideal to just no do a color correction of either red/orange or blue/green of what is remaining. Hop over to my tutorials to check it out. Good luck in helping your client.
@@PigmentaTV thank you Julia for a such great info. Appreciate it 🙏❤️ already subscribed your channel 😊
Thank you. Greatly appreciated!!!!
I had my micro blading and shading removed with the PiQO4 a few days ago and it took the blueish- black micro blading out but it turned orange. It still looks better than the dark brows. They say come back in 10 weeks to get the orange out. Is that true? Can they take the orange out that was left after the Lazor removal?
Hi there, it is totally normal to be left with the red pigment after laser. Let it heal. Most likely it will normalize a bit. If not. Try to find a tech that can color correct then. Hope this helps!
@@PigmentaTV when you say heal? After the Lazor removal I didn’t have any issues. I don’t think I have anything to heal. No peeling or burns no nothing. Just some orange left behind.
The skin takes about a month to rejuvenate and for the new layer of skin to come to the surface. That is what I mean by healing. I am suggesting to wait until you have a complete cell turnover to see if redness is still there. May subside by itself.
This is true. I had laser removal with Picoway Laser and my brows were Dark brown before the treatment afterwards I was left with the base color which was red. 😳 it was a bit scary lol but once you understand how lasers work you just accept it and cover with light makeup until next session. The laser absorbed every pigment except red because lasers work by colors wavelength. It will target certain colors first for example black is one of the easiest colors to remove even though it sounds contrary. Red is one of the hardest colors along with yellow and orange. I believe this is because it’s closest to our skin color. But even red ink left behind will get absorbed by the Pico laser. I had my eyebrow tattoos removed with only a few sessions. The Picoway Laser does not leave any scarring because it literally only touches the skin less than nanoseconds. It is similar to when you pass your finger through the flame of a candle you do not feel any pain because of how fast you flipped your finger through. Don’t get me wrong you still feel a little pain but it’s more like the flick of a rubber band against your skin. Hurts a lot less than Microblade in. But then again it all depends on your pains all arms it’s not very painful at all it’s very tolerable and if you ice your brows before hand you won’t feel much. Looks like fresh skin afterwards.
I got ombré brows about 3 years ago wrong shape, wrong colour and when I tried laser they turned orange so removal was stopped. Have tried saline removals but they don’t fade much. Wish there was some type of treatment I could have to remove them asap!
Hi, I understand your situation. With removal, whether it is laser or Celine solution a follow up treatment as needed you need to find a technician who can neutralize the area with a green pigment. After that you can either leave it alone or re-pigment the area. Hope this helps!
Hi! I just had my eyebrows tattooed using both the powder and hair strokes technique. Sadly in the middle where the hair strokes are, I find it a little too dark and too blunt. What can I or the person that did the tattoo do about that? Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
Hi, I am sorry to hear that. That person would have to know how to correct their own work and not just put more color over it. There is really nothing you can do yourself to correct that. Hope this helps. If all fails, try to find specialist near you to pull the color out.
I’m so happy you started making videos, Julia! Beautiful job, great information. Thank you! You look amazing 😘
Thank you sooo much Jackie! Hope to see you soon!!!
