I just repotted her because she was root bound, why is she browning on the pink?

The pink parts don’t have chlorophyll so they don’t last as long as the green parts of the leaves. This is normal

Thank you! So there’s nothing I can do?

Nope, just making sure you’re giving the plant great light so the green parts can create enough energy to sustain the whole plant
