Trolls are ‘screaming' & say I should've ‘sued' the salon after seeing how my first attempt at eyebrow lamination went

The Sun07-08-2025
FORKING out for any beauty treatment comes with it's fair share of risks.
But this woman could never have anticipated just how bad her first attempt at eyebrow lamination would go.

She took to TikTok to show off the shocking before and after pictures, and the video has racked up a whopping 3.8 million views in under 48 hours.
The beauty fan, who goes by Ms Carragher online, quickly went viral after she shared the pictures.
"Thinking about the time I got my brows laminated," she wrote over a picture of herself with picture perfect eyebrows.
But the video then switched to a snap of her looking barely recognisable with huge, dark eyebrows.
Ever since the trend took off a few years ago, eyebrow lamination has become all the rage, with thousands rocking neatly styled brows for that lifted effect.
The non-invasive semi-permanent hair straightening treatment reshapes and sets the brow hairs into a desired position, creating a fuller and uniform look.
It can last for several weeks and can be customised to achieve various brow styles, from feathery to bold - so, it's no wonder beauty buffs are raving about it.
But the beauty fan's treatment didn't exactly turn out how she expected, and it was so bad fellow TikTok users urged her to "sue."
One commented on the viral video: Girl, sue everyone, sue me."
A second agreed: "I screamed. Girl you better sue someone."
I tried the viral '53 method' to banish my 'chins' without going under the knife and the results were astonishing
"Oh my goodness I'm traumatised for you," someone else wrote.
And another chimed in: "NOTHING could've prepared me for that."
Meanwhile, others mused on where the beauty fan could've gone wrong, with some wondering if she attempted to do the treatment herself.
"There's no way a professional did this to you," one said.
"Please tell me you did them yourself," another commented.
Bronzing drop fail
Speaking of beauty fails, one mum-of-two was recently left looking life she's off to work for Willy Wonka after the viral Primark bronzing drops did her dirty.
Horrified, TikToker Laura Wilkinson took to her page after trying out the viral drops went terribly wrong - and social media users couldn't stop laughing at the epic fail.
''Quick question... Can someone, please, show me how to use these?'' she said in the video, which has since racked up close to 400k views.
In the clip, the mum-of-two showed she had used the drops in the Medium to Dark range, before revealing the jaw-dropping results.
''I am pretty sure this isn't how it's meant to go,'' the blonde beauty was mortified, as she revealed her bright orange complexion that clearly hadn't had the sunkissed effect she was after.
''SOS,'' Laura went on in the caption.
After taking the internet by storm with the hilarious flop, the Primark shopper realised the grave error she had made, as many pointed out she'd skipped an essential step.
One person explained: ''I mix them with my moisturiser or primer.''
Others also pointed out that she may have used the drops that were, clearly, too intense for her fair glow.
But as many were rushing to offer a helping hand, hundreds couldn't help but laugh at the disaster, with one wondering if Laura was off to work for Willy Wonka.
A second agreed, writing: ''You both need to sue each other.''
'' Easiest money they made that day lol,'' someone else joked.
Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using
Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using.
A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines.
A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion.
The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin's appearance and texture.
SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone's daily skincare routine.
Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun's UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin's texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer.
Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection.
Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation.
I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair's moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.

Kylie Minogue responds to claims Taylor Swift copied her look

Taylor Swift has unveiled imagery for her forthcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl, featuring a burlesque-style diamante leotard and 1920s flapper-style costumes. Some fans accused Swift of copying Kylie Minogue 's Showgirl era, an aesthetic the Australian pop singer adopted for her greatest hits tour in 2006. Minogue responded on Instagram by sharing throwback photos from her tour, saying the 'Showgirl life is ... so much more than feathers and dazzle', and expressing respect for other 'hard working Showgirls'. Fans said Minogue's post showed she admires Swift and was not intended as criticism or 'shade'. Swift's new album was inspired by her experiences during her record-breaking Eras Tour and is her first release since she regained the full rights to her initial six records.

And Just Like That comes to an end – this is where to watch Carrie Bradshaw's farewell

And Just Like That came to an end last night, with Sarah Jessica Parker 's character Carrie Bradshaw bidding a final farewell. Sex and the City became a cultural behemoth when it first aired in the Nineties, but the spin-off wasn't as warmly received in 2021. Among the mixed reviews of the first two seasons of And Just Like That, many fans and critics cringed at the show's attempts at inclusivity. Others, however, were charmed and compelled by Carrie, Miranda and Charlotte's return, alongside a cast of new characters, including Seema and Lisa. But last month, it was quietly announced that the third season would be its last, with showrunner Michael Patrick King calling it 'a wonderful place to stop'. This came as a shock for many fans, who felt like the series had finally got into its stride – The Independent awarded it three stars, finding that the show had 'found its groove.' Just like the original show, the reboot has become a form of Cosmopolitan-fuelled escapism – it romanticises New York, treats us to outlandish fashion and celebrates female friendships. But the reviews are in for the final episode of And Just Like That, and spoiler: they're not good. Thankfully, this isn't goodbye forever. If anything, the HBO reboot has only ignited love for the original Sex and the City series. Some decade-long fans have been revisiting older episodes as sweet relief from the spin-off, while younger generations are discovering it for the very first time. From where to watch season four of And Just Like That – including the last-ever episode – to how to stream all six seasons of Sex and the City, here's everything you need to know. The new season of The Sex and the City spin-off came to a close on Thursday, 14 August 2025, on Sky TV and Now. The season saw Carrie and Aidan enter a long-distance 'situationship' as she settled into her new townhouse in Gramercy Park and ventured into fiction writing. Miranda, meanwhile, explored new work and romantic opportunities, and Charlotte attempted to balance her career with parenting two teenagers. The season three finale closed the chapter for Carrie, but did she walk away from And Just Like That in a relationship? Or did she finally embrace her independence, rather than running away from it? You can watch the final episode on Now TV now. Where to watch the first two seasons of And Just Like That in the UK If you aren't a Sky customer, you can get a Sky Stream box (£15 per month, which comes with a Sky TV entertainment package and a free subscription to Netflix's standard plan with ads, as well as a free subscription to Discovery+ (the home of Eurosport). If you don't want to buy the Sky Stream box, but still want to watch And Just Like That, you can stream it on the Sky-owned Now streaming service (formerly Now TV). You'll need an entertainment membership to watch the show (£9.99 per month, You can also buy the entire season one and two box set on Apple TV+ ( and Amazon Prime Video ( If you're already mourning Carrie's departure from our screens (or want to erase And Just Like That from your memory), you can stream all six seasons of Sex and the City on Now TV. Following the sex columnist as she navigates New York with her three best friends – Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha – it's an addictive look at dating, friendship, careers and life in your thirties. With memorable fashion moments, iconic lines that are quoted to this day and men who are still ranked at the pub (Aidan always wins), there's a reason why Sex and the City has such a cult following.

Manchester Pride history: from 80s Gay Olympics to one of Britain's biggest public events

From protests to parties, Britain has plenty of Pride events that celebrate queer liberation – but Manchester's blockbuster weekend jamboree remains one of the best-attended. Manchester Pride has continued to grow since its beginnings, with the aim of promoting inclusivity across the whole of the city, calling for positive change and using the event to support LGBT+ businesses and charities. This year's theme for the event is 'love' – recognising love as a source of strength and resilience for LGBT+ people and helping queer people have the courage to be themselves. When is Manchester Pride? It takes place over the August bank holiday weekend (Saturday 22 August - Monday 25 August) – a date used by Manchester's LGBT+ community for 45 years for celebratory events rooted in activism, often raising funds for the community and charities too. It has blossomed into one of Britain's biggest annual Pride celebrations. Events take place all over the city, but the parade snakes through the city centre, heading past Canal Street and the city's gay village which hosts a huge street party. This year, a Mardi Gras music and performance event will be at Depot Mayfield – one of Manchester's leading event spaces, and there's youth and family events, as well as late night parties with some iconic queer artists. Manchester Pride's parade is a free event, though there are ticketed elements such as the Mardi Gras and the Gay Village Party. You can buy tickets for them here. How did Manchester Pride begin? The city's Pride celebration roots go back to the 1980s in what is now the Gay Village neighbourhood in the city centre, centered around Canal street. Known as the beating heart of the city's LGBT+ community, it's always been regarded as a safe space for the community, where people could express their identity without fear of persecution. Here, the first Manchester Gay Pub and Club Olympics took place on the August bank holiday weekend in 1985, taking inspiration from school sports day, featuring wholesome competitive games with a camp edge such as an egg and spoon race and tug of war, all judged by drag queens. But despite the celebrations at the time, hostility and homophobia were still rife. The gay village, still largely an underground scene, was raided by police for 'licentious dancing'. In 1988, more than 20,000 people came together to protest in the streets against Section 28 – legislation that prevented schools and local authorities from 'promoting homosexuality' or reflecting it in a positive light. It was this activism, along with many others around the UK, that formed the basis of Pride parades today. What does the Manchester Pride organisation support? In 2007, Manchester Pride became a registered charity and campaigns for LGBT+ rights and equality, while also celebrating the community. It supports grassroot initiatives by giving them a platform at the event, as well as its grants programme which financially supports local groups or charities with donations between £250 and £11,000, and hosts events throughout the year too. Since 2021, there have been 148 grants given out and money generated by the weekend for Greater Manchester is estimated to be £104.8m since 2021. Though its charity status is fairly new, previously the events and celebrations over the August bank holiday weekend raised funds from ticket sales and bucket donations and supported HIV and AIDs charities, when the diseases resulted in many deaths among the gay community. In 1991, The Village Charity created an earlier iteration of Manchester's Pride, known as the Manchester Mardi Gras which raised £15k for HIV and AIDs causes too. Like all Pride events, the key and everlasting message is that it's not just a weekend-long or single day event, it's an all-year effort supporting and uplifting the community. You can get involved with working with the charity or volunteering at an event too – find out more here.
