Hey me again, I was wondering if anyone here tints or colors their eyebrows (or has them done)? I did this once and it turned out good although it eventually faded out, I want to do it again but i'm worried it'll damage the hair and they'll fall out? Could this happen?

Um, well I will tell you in my case I have bought over the counter face-eyebrow bleaches and they work fine and I know we arent supposed to use hair dye on them but frankly I do it! lol


what i do is bleach it the same day i dye my hair and after bleaching my eyebrows i apply a bit of hair color on them and they turn out really good! just make sure you dont over apply since it can drip on your eyes! I am just telling you what I do , its up to you if you want to try it

anyway I have never seen peoples eyebrow hair fall from coloring it or bleaching it and i do it often so dont worry about it and go for it!

I don't have much experience with it, but I was going through the late Kevyn Aucion's book on make up tricks and according to him, bleaching your brows softens the look of your face. However, "overusing the bleach can seriously weaken hairs...so it is best to test the effect of the bleach (and see the color change) by removing a bit of product and uncovering the hairs underneath every few moments."

Also when you're done with the bleach, clean off your eyebrows with a mild soap and water, apply a mild antiseptic to them, and "use a tiny bit of hair conditioner on the brow to help keep it supple."

Hope that helps.
