If you accidentally pluck out excess eyebrows, you'll want to grow your eyebrows as soon as possible. While eyebrows don't grow instantly, you can make the growing period a little easier. Take advantage of an eyebrow pencil to keep people from paying attention to your eyebrows!
Step
Method 1 of 3: Waiting for the Eyebrows to Grow
Step 1. Wait for a few months
Once removed, eyebrows take a long time to grow back completely. The period of growing eyebrows varies for each person, ranging from six weeks to a whole year. The best thing you can do is be patient. Look at the plus side: for a while your eyebrows don't need much grooming.
Step 2. Do not pluck or wax your eyebrows
You probably already know, but just a reminder that plucking or waxing your eyebrows won't help your eyebrows grow any faster. In fact, sometimes plucking and waxing your eyebrows can permanently damage the eyebrow follicles and prevent them from growing back.
Step 3. Grow rows of eyebrows
If you don't want your eyebrows to grow without shaping, follow a grow-in-line strategy. Let one row of eyebrows grow and then pluck the wild eyebrows around it. When the row finishes growing, start again in the next row. Keep doing this until all the eyebrows grow back.
- This method will give your eyebrows a neater look in growing your eyebrows.
- The grow-in-line method can take some time, so be prepared to wait longer than usual.
Method 2 of 3: Stimulate Growth
Step 1. Exfoliate
While waiting for your eyebrows to grow, you can stimulate the skin in the brow area to make them grow faster. Use a soft facial brush to scrub the brow area in circular motions, removing dead skin cells and boosting circulation in that area.
- You can also use a scrub on the brow area. Scrub can be purchased or made yourself.
- Don't rub too hard; Gently rub the skin in a circular motion. Too much pressure can loosen existing brows.
Step 2. Use eyebrow serum
Eyebrow serum is a product designed to stimulate follicle-level growth with peptides. Some people have had success with this serum; Eyebrow serums can be very expensive and don't work quickly. If you want, you can look for eyelash serums that contain the same active ingredients and are more widely available.
Step 3. Eat nutritious food
Stimulate natural eyebrow growth by getting the vitamins and minerals your body needs to maintain healthy hair and skin. Get plenty of protein, B vitamins, iron, zinc, and omega 3. Add these healthy ingredients to your diet:
- Walnuts, avocado and olive oil
- Carrot, mango and sweet potato
- Low-fat meat, salmon and other fish
- Green leafy vegetables like spinach and kale
Method 3 of 3: Temporary Eyebrow Makeup
Step 1. Use an eyebrow pencil
You can paint effectively by using an eyebrow pencil while waiting for the eyebrows to grow. Choose a pencil that matches the color of your eyebrows or a lighter shade. Create short, thin strokes in the same direction as the growth of the eyebrows.
- For eyebrow pencils, fine strokes are better than thick strokes. You don't have to try to look bushy; enough to paint the eyebrows that have not grown.
- For a bolder nighttime look, use a shade darker than your brow color.
Step 2. Use eyebrow powder
Eyebrow powder is formulated to stick to the eyebrow hair and make eyebrows look fuller and fuller. This is the right way if the eyebrows tend to grow infrequently. Choose a color that matches the color of your eyebrows and use a brush to apply in the direction of eyebrow growth.
Step 3. Use a disguise to cover the stump
A regrown eyebrow may look like a stump. Hold yourself back to unplug it, just use a little disguise there. Use chemical-free disguises to avoid the risk of inhibiting eyebrow growth.
Step 4. Try applying Vaseline to your eyebrows before going to bed
Do this treatment for at least a month, and be patient. If you want to instantly get thicker looking brows or look more beautiful for a special occasion, you can also apply Vaseline.
