Glad to hear it! I usually leave it on for 5 mins or so, but I have thick eyebrows. When i do my upper lip (not that there is anything there LOL!), I leave it on for 10. Just fyi :)

I cheat and pluck mine rather thin to make them not so.... stand out ish. You can easily go to a salon and get them done for like 10 bucks!

Level 5 or level 6 neutral permanent hair color left on for about 5 minutes should do the trick. No bleach necessary. Also, I've heard blondes should have lighter brown brows, not blonde. One still needs an accent/frame for the eyes!

I think you should definitely go back to your colorist, at least for the first time. If you've never done it before, it can be pretty risky and you don't want to damage your eyes. Hope I helped :)

Hi guys.  I need some help, I lightened my base to a strawberry blonde then did a half head of highlights-which made it very light-which i love!!  I'm still trying to get used to the "strawberry color" (looks a little copper to me) but my ques is what's the best way to lighten my eyebrows from med/dark brown to a lighter brown.   I've read about jolen bleach, just wanted some advice from otheres who have tried it.  I can always go back and have her lighten them for me (she's a good friend), but if I can do it at home, in a safe manner, I'd rather do that so I can keep up with them all the time.  Thanks in advance for all of your answers!!!!!
