eyebrows

I use my trusty Revitalash on mine, they do a specialist brow one, but this works as well , just need patience, about 8 weeks to work. Then brush them with a little castor oil and an old mascara brush in between . Worth a go.

My friend had hers done and in the pub on a night out I thought they looked great. The next time I saw her in the daylight I thought she looked ridiculous! They just looked so fake.

Anyone tried this? Just found on a local salon website costing £40:
Lola Brows a unique treatment which sculpts and builds the brow with personalised colour, providing a three dimensional look to frame and shape the face. Lasting up to three weeks and bespoke to each client’s needs, it’s perfect for sparse or over plucked brows, to fill in gaps or to build a dramatic brow shape.
Building both brow shape, volume and thickness, this multi-layering sculpting treatment uses a new specially formulated gel mixed with pigment powder to create a colour and look that is unique to each client. Applied to the existing brow or directly to the skin, the transparent gel used in the LoLa Brows treatment is light reflective and thickens the individual strands of hair with a realistic, natural look. Waterproof and smudge proof, LoLa Brows achieves a result akin to semi-permanent make up without the need for needles, it’s totally non-invasive and takes around 30 minutes to complete.

I am also a 1970's plucker! I draw them in if I'm going out out, but otherwise its naked face. I've just googled microblading in my area. £325 plus regular touch ups and £100 per visit! Eeek! Think I'll stick with the eye brow brush and palette.

Glad to report that I had absolutely no problems during my MRI. The radiologist was interested to hear about my eyebrows as she hadn’t had any previous patients who had this done, though i’m sure I won’t be her last. She told me that the problems with pigment in tattoos is generally with self done tattoos where there is no knowing what has been used as pigment, or someone who is heavily tattooed.

Have had both my eyebrows and eyeliner tattooed. Went to a very skilled cosmetic tattooist who’d done work on several friends and I liked the results. My eyebrows just disappeared about five years ago (without even a bye your leave...) and neither eyebrow pencil or eyeliner stay on in the Tropics. Great to ‘get up and go’ rather than needing to faff around with cosmetics in the mornings.

Also when I dye my hair I use one finger with a glove on and carefully dip it in my dyed hair and run it across my eyebrows. When rinsing keep eyes shut very tight

My DDs best friend has and they look lovely

I have mine tinted for the last year so much less hassle than pencilling in
Costs less than £15.00 & lasts 5 -6 weeks before fading

Hi ladys I've got a type of alopecia that caused my brows to dissapare I've had my brows microbladed it cost over 200 pound the first time and i have to go back yearly as they fade this costs just over 100 pounds its made a big difference to my appearance and confidance i don't spend ages having to draw them on great for swimming well worth it.

Yes. I had my eyebrows tattooed 5 years ago which didnt last. They arent real tatoos; some sort of vegetable crap. Last year, I had them microbladed, which was AGONIZING! That lasted about 3 weeks. I gave up. It's very expensive in the US - $200 - $400

Best thing I ever did was to get my eyebrows micro bladed, they do need done ever year as they wear off. Just make sure you go to someone good .

Tatooing is with a needle, microblading is with a small blade which can look like a hair. The colour usually needs topping up and a good therapist should follow your natural brow as that is what suits your face x

Thanks for all your replies. I'm going to call in to a few places local to me and ask to see "before and after" photos.

Chrishappy Your eyebrows look really good.

Yes I had mine done last year with a top up earlier this year, it has given me more confidence, I feel made up without make up on especially when I have had my eyelashes dyed too. I too over plucked in the 70's and am Hypothyroid, so was on a loser to grow them back. Make sure you see photos of their work before you commit and expect to pay in the region of £300, but Oh Yes, it is worth it.

My tattooed eyebrows. I love them!!!

I quite like my eyebrows - it's the rest of me that needs help!

GracesGranMK3 Thanks. I had my thyroid checked earlier in the year, so I know it's Ok.

I had my eyebrows microbladed 4 years ago and was really really pleased with the result. My eyebrows were very 'sparse', but the microblading is more subtle than a tattoo and you would never know they weren't real as I chose a colour close to my natural colour. I had it 'topped up' 2 years ago as, unlike tattooing, it doesn't last for ever. I would definitely recommend it, but it has to be done by someone who is properly trained. There was only one person at the spa where I went who was trained to do it. They put some anaesthetic cream on it beforehand and when they did it, it just felt like light 'scratching'. Hope this is helpful anyway.

I don't like tattoo's, they fade to a horrible blue colour and for eyebrows I think they look really unnatural and no going back if you don't like the result!
Microblading looks lovely but i'm too much of a coward to try it.
I just pencil mine in - primark do a lovely fine pencil for £2 - then I 'set' with translucent powder. It looks really natural, I've had many complimentary comments!

Defo not deco!

I had mine micro bladed 7 years ago and then 3 years ago again. Just about to have them re-done! Brilliant they look very natural. Now they have faded I am fed up having to do them every day? Make sure you get a recommendation as some better than others. Deco recommend it.

Invest in a tube of Rapidbrow. I got mine on ebay. It takes about 6 weeks but really works. Just stroke it on am and pm. Heaven knows how it works but it does!

I lost mine through a rare form if alopecia that wasn't diagnosed until 3 years ago. I had just thought eyebrow loss was hormonal and had tattoos. Loved them, gave my eyes a frame even though I wear glasses. And I still had eyebrows in the rain and swimming. They faded eventually but by then diagnosis made and I was entitled to gave them done on NHS so I did again two years ago. Wouldn't be without tattoo eyebrows.

Ooo no to much of a coward for tattoos anywhere.
I just have my eyebrows waxed that does me.
