Brows on fleek?…Not for this chick. Epic Brow Fail

First let me start by expressing my extreme hatred for the word FLEEK, but it helped get you in here huh 😉

Polly Smith, 19, is making national headlines after undergoing a procedure known as ” HD Brows.” This cosmetic procedure is intended to darken and thicken sparse brows, the treatment involves waxing, threading and dyeing the eyebrows to get this look. *Because everyone wants the Cara Delevingne look*

I for one, LOVE a strong and defined brow. Thisssss may be a little much…

This is poor Polly just days after the “HD Brows” procedure. She began to notice irritation, and days later, Polly was horrified to find an allergic reaction caused her face to swell and bruise so badly she could barely open her eyes.  Honestly, it’s painful to even look at her in that picture, but it gets worse. For the faint of heart, you might want to close your eyes…

 

*DUN DUN DUNNNNN*

Told ya!

A friend brought her to the hospital where doctors prescribed her a plethora of antibiotics, steroids and antihistamines to treat the infection. *Clearly plain ol’ Benedryl was not going to cut it*

Weeks later, the infection still hasn’t fully healed; in fact, doctors believe Smith may be permanently scarred.

R.I.P. to the old Polly, who I’m sure wishes she had her pin thin brows back any day…

But no, in all seriousness, I do hope Polly makes a full recovery. For now, let’s leave the HD to tv and cameras, not your face.
