Woman Left With Slugs for Brows After Tinting Word to the wise: Don't get your brow tinting done at a nail salon. That was one Bristol mom's bad move before she wound up with "two black slugs" for eyebrows. The procedure was offered to her while she was having her nails done at a nearby salon. When speaking about the mishap, her daughter told Bristol Post, "They weren't qualified to do this. Her face ballooned and we had to get the paramedics out as her eyebrow was burnt off while her face was puffing really badly." The salon technicians apparently told her to keep the tint on for an hour, when the max exposure time should have been 10 minutes.
Research shows they should never have offered her the tint in the first place, since she had just had a wax and doing so after waxing is a major no-no since the follicles are wide open and the chemicals seep deeper into the pores.
