For most people who enjoy a bit of grooming, getting your eyebrows done professionally is an expensive special treat. But this week, for one unfortunate customer, her beauty treatment actually left her far worse off by the end, and now her Facebook post on the subject of her mistreated eyebrows has gone viral on social media.
A model sporting a prominent monobrow has recently opened up about how she deals with cruel trolls in this interview:

The trouble began when 21-year-old Melissa Ryan, who hails from Kent in England, visited a local beauty parlour called Cavendish Aesthetics to get lip fillers. However, Melissa claims she was pressured into getting her brows laminated, and at the end of her session ended up with incredible thick, dark brows.
Uploading a number of pictures of her brows, Ryan wrote: "My eyebrows were completely unsatisfactory and nothing like the photos that are advertised on social media. ‘I was left looking like I complete fool. I probably could’ve done a better job myself, blindfolded."

She added: "I literally came home and cried, this has made me feel even worse about myself and my appearance. I was allowed to leave the shop with my eyebrows in the worst state possible, people in public were staring at me and laughing at me, it was so embarrassing!"
Ryan also shared a number of Whatsapp messages she exchanged with the salon's owner Amanda, who offered a refund of £25 which she could collect. However, the cost of travel would make it redundant, and so she refused.

Defending herself, Amanda told Kent Live that: "All I said at the time was: 'we do brow lamination, you’ve got lovely big brows, would you like to have your brows laminated?' I explained that we were looking for models at the moment, for someone in training, and asked if she would be happy to help. She said 'go on then.' Those were her words."
