Anyone grown out their eyebrows?

[Deleted]

My eyebrows have become really thin from years of over-tweezing. I have thick eyebrows with unruly little hairs...sort of curly like my hair. It's been about 2 weeks and they are driving me crazy. I am maintaining the strays but the hair that's left behind is sparse, which I expected. How long did it take for yours to completely grow in? Did they grow in well or were they still pretty thin where you had removed the hair?

I went through this a couple of years ago. I think it took a few months for them to grow in completely... I still have some bald spots that I fill in with the ELF eyebrow kit, but overall, they're much better.

Some tips: if your eyebrows get long and curly (mine do) you might want to trim them every so often. Also, when I was letting my eyebrows fill in, I went to have my eyebrows done more frequently, and told the girl what my plan was. She was totally on board and helped me keep them relatively normal looking through the process. Good luck and stay strong! No plucking!!!!!

I think I went about 3 months! My eyebrows are *so* much better after I did that. I look back to HS pictures and --eek!

They were so over-tweezed, and almost like upside down U's. My friends (who knew my in HS) say, "Yay, I guess they look different", but my friends who met me in college/post-college were all, "Omg. You have porn star eyebrows!" haha.

Like PP said, talk to the lady who does it for suggestions on outgrowing them. I used the Anastasia brow serum. I think fuller brows make people look younger, too. Good luck!

If I don't touch my eyebrows in a month or two, they grow again. Off course, I still pluck the thicker hairs that grow out of the eyebrow.

I always go with this lady to get my eyebrows threaded though. She is really good and give them a nice shape. You could go with someone who helps you to get them in better shape. My eyebrows also get really long and curly, so she trims them apart of the threading.

Just tossing this out here, becuz i have not tried it yet. I have been reading about castor oil to help make them grow faster. I believe it is put on at night. Most of the reviews I read the people had believed they saw a big difference after two weeks. Just something to think about/ look into

I've heard the castor oil trick as well, just put a little on a qtip and apply it like that.

My eyebrows are a total mess, I sort of go in phases trying to grow them out and shape them up, but typically they have a very "natural" look to them. I wish they would grow out in length, like on the tail end, but they don't grow past a certain point so I will always need to fill in the outside end if I want a perfect looking brow. Most of the time I don't bother.
