Hello! How often are you watering the plant and what is the moisture level in the soil?

Hi! Im very new to this- I watered it 9 days ago when I purchased it .

It’s okay, okay, well snake plants are drought lovers. So the browning tips could be from it being overwatered since usually they are overwatered at the store and then if you watered it straight away it would definitely need a long dry spell before it needs water again. Id wait till the whole pot is dried out before watering.
