The problem is that clients think HD brows are for everyone! I Often get asked for people with small brows like yourself to create bigger brows. Without make up it's simply impossible! As a pro HD stylist I'm honest enough to advise clients who say their brows don't grow that unless you are willing to draw them on everyday the only option is semi permanent make up. HD brows isn't about putting make up on it's about masking the areas of re growth and filling them in with the make up whilst your own brows grow to the perfect shape. However I do have clients that like me to put make up on their minimal brows because they aren't as good at it. As a trained beauty therapist there is no way anyone can do HD brows without being trained, or else I would have done that and saved myself a lot of money in training. Some therapists say they do the same process but they don't have the knowledge to create true HD brows. Everyone is different and there is a market out their for every client from people who want to pay £10 to mine who will pay £30. You get what you pay for but I'm sure whatever amount you chose to pay you will get better brows to

Dinky I'm impressed! X
These are a couple of my HD Brow before and after pics. First one is on a regrowth programme as she needed a lot of growing back in.
I think the op pics are not HD Brows, you can clearly see that there hasn't been any trimming or styling of the brows. I'm really think you should go back and say something. How much did she charge you out of interest? Xx

I would complain and ask for a refund! If she refuses I would send these to HD. I offer a wax and tint at half the price of HD and do a much better job than this. She hasn't shaped the brows properly.

I agree with the others Viv! I am not hd trained myself but I can see that your brows are not hd! From your pics they haven't been trimmed, just tinted!

You should get in touch with the lady and express your feelings. Show her one of the photos from HD's website and just say you expected them to be more defined. I would prefer someone to be honest so I could rectify the problem rather than them going round saying I didn't do a very good job. As a professional she should be more than happy to help and should come to an arrangement to see you again xx

I was unsure about HD brows at first and did all my research. I asked 2 different salons (the only 2 in my local area that do HD brows) where they trained. Salon A: the girl said she went all the way to Milton Keynes where the actually HD brow training is done by the founder of HD Brows and Salon B: the girl said that she had a trainer come out to her to show her how to do it. I've tried both places for this treatment and I stick to the one where the beautician from Salon A.
They were both the same price but I went for Salon B: to start with. She did all the procedure without the threading. Didn't really explain what she was doing. I explained exactly how I wanted my brows in terms of thickness and tinting and she just did the treatment. I wasn't sure how I felt about the treatment after because she made my inner brows look like a square shape. It looked really strange, similar to "scouse brow". I didn't say anything at the time because I thought it was just me being funny and not used to HD Brows.
Salon A: Firstly she asked me to grow my brows out for at least 2 months because my hair was quite sparse (this I was on edge about but did it anyway and kept a long fringe the whole 2 months lol) then I went back in and she did a whole consultation with me, explained the steps and the products she was going to use. She made a grid around brows with thread and told me what it all meant and as she did the treatment she explained what she was doing. I absolutely loved my HD brows and I go back to this beautician regularly. they were super defined and I think the fact that I grew my eyebrows for 2 months made the end result so clean and precise too. brows are so important because they can make your face look so different if they're not framing your face properly. I'd deffo recommend somebody else with a portfolio or some kinda of evidence of their work.
