Eyebrow dilemma, what to do?

Question

I way overplucked in my teens and now my eyebrows are really thin, in some areas nonexistent and where there are hairs that grow sometimes they grow in really thick and all dif directions. I have invested alot of money...smashbox, anastasia stencils but still cannot manage to get pretty, soft, natural looking brows. This is my one major spas...any advice?

I have tried rogaine for women and may have seen some mild results but gained a few lbs (side effect) so quit that. I use a pencil and draw on the brows but they always look so fake and no matter what color pencil never natural (I have used a makeup wedge to blend) have used brow powders and gels.

Answer 1

you can get a hair transplant...go to any plastic surgeon.

Answer 2

I hate to say it but sometimes the hair follicle becomes damaged and doesn’t grow back. You could try a little castor oil, which is reputed to help with eyelash growth, so it may work on your brows too! Other than that there is a product from Model Co called More Brows that actually contains little fibres suspended in clear gel. The fibres look exactly like eyebrow hairs but they are man made. This gel gives you very realistic looking brows. So while you wait for yours to hopefully grow in this may help

Answer 3

This has happened to me before. I didn't spend much money,I bought a brow pencil that match my eyebrow color and thats it. Everyday I would lightly outlined the area to my liking and just let the hairs grow out and once a week I pucked the unwanted hairs around the pencil marks until my eyebrow hairs grew back out.It takes about three weeks,believe me I hated it.But don't put to much though into it,cause if you think of it to much you may try to do something more dramatic.Just be patient it'll grow back.

Answer 4

many salons now will tattoo on eye brows it does not cost much either, or just pencil them in get a good make though and blend in soft no lines ! x

Answer 5

the best thing to do is to go to a good eyebrow shaper. i find that aveda salons are good in many cities. have they reshape your brow by trimming it and showing you the best thing to do to make them look best. they will recommend how to manage and fill them to best suit you. you need to have someone take a look at them and groom them. stop wasting you money on products that do not work and go get a professional to help you get it right

i do not recommend the eyebrow tattooing as somany people do not thinklong term. skin ages. it wrinkles and sags. eventually, it will not be where it should be. also as your face ages, it changes. what looked best at one point may not suit you later on.

Answer 6

Let them grow in some especially where you over tweezed. Then go to a beauty shop (take a picture of what you want them to end up looking like if you want) and have them "professionally" done. Then you can keep them tweezed after that.

Answer 7

First of all, I don't think people should pluck their eyebrows unless they have a unibrow. If you pluck your eyebrows, then you have to kep on plucking them. When you grow old tho, you might lose all your eye brow hairs. I would go to the Salons at the mall
