There is hope for over-plucked eyebrows.

Brow experts reveal their tips for growing back eyebrow hair, and we’ve got five (mostly) natural and incredibly easy ways to do it.

1. Massage Massage the area around your eyebrows

Just like your scalp, massaging your eyebrows can help stimulate hair growth by increasing your blood flow. When you brush or massage your eyebrows, you create stimulation and blood flow is oxygenated, which causes hair to grow. To massage, press one or two fingers toward the middle of your eyebrow and use circular motions, moving gradually toward the tail of your eyebrow. This technique is effective when you massage with a growth serum, or a homemade blend such as castor oil and olive oil.

2. Choose the right tweezers

Don’t use tweezers with a wide, flat tip – it’s like using a lawnmower to remove a blade of grass. Instead, choose tweezers with a bent tip so you can pull in the direction of hair growth.Skin tends to be softer and more delicate right after a shower. The result? Eyebrow hairs glide effortlessly.

You can be more precise, also avoid tweezers with rubber handles on the end. The rubber creates more friction, which causes more trauma to the hair when you pull it out.

Deficiencies in vitamins and minerals such as vitamins A, C, D, biotin, omega fatty acids, iron or zinc can slow or stop hair growth cycles.

The primary step in restoring volume to your eyebrow hairs is exfoliation. It is important to exfoliate our eyebrows because we carry a lot of dry skin under our eyebrow hairs. What happens is that we are then not able to receive the creams or oils that we put on our dry skin. So when you remove the dead skin from your eyebrows, you open the door for small hairs to grow and you also avoid ingrown hairs.

How long does it typically take for eyebrows to grow out?

In regrowing eyebrows, patience is the key. It takes at least two to three months to see hair growth. The growth cycle for eyebrow hair is three to four months, so you need enough time for the hair to respond to your changes.

– Prescription supplements and topical medications.
– Platelet-rich plasma injections.
– Eyebrow hair transplants.
