Wrong eye brow tint

    Got my eye brows tinted today as they are very blonde and I normally get a light brown but my beautician obviously made a mistake and put on dark brown. I only realised this error after my shower this evening when I washed all the residue off. They are so dark against my pale skin and blonde hair Does anyone know how long they will take to fade or if there is anything I could do to speed up the process :-(

    Sometimes I find some makeup remover and a bit of a scrub helps, however you'd be surprised how quickly they fade so I'd treat them as a lil bit longer value for money.... perhaps its that they fade or maybe I just get used to them?!

    A certain amount is on the skin behind the brow, don't worry it will fade a good bit in the next 2 days.

    Head and shoulders shampoo or a bit of washing up liquid (mind your eyes though!), Give them a little scrub with some water as if you were washing your hair. Otherwise they'll fade out in a few days anyway.

    I've used nail varnish remover in the past for the same problem.

    was the tint still on your eyebrows when you left the salon? eyebrows are extremely porous so they absorb colour pigment very quickly. it should only be left on for 1-3 minutes and then removed thoroughly. the therapist should not have let you leave the salon without ensuring it was removed completely. also, i think there is only one brown tint, the shade is dependant on the ratio of hydrogen peroxide to dye and the time its on your brows. tint usually lasts for approx 6 weeks but im sure scrubbing regularly with anti dandruff shampoo or even exfoliater will help it fade faster.

    Mine are very dark naturally and I like them a lighter brown . I bleach mine then tiny them light brown. I've had mine done before at the salon and they always turned out too dark so I do them myself at home now. Yours should fade soon.
