Beauty Tips : Home Remedies To Thicken Scanty Eyebrows
Eyebrows define lines of one’s face particularly eyes. When you thread or pluck the brows, the shape of the eyebrows can change the facial appearance.
Some of us are lucky enough to be born with the well defined & shaped brows, as the rest of us have thick brows or ‘unibrows’ which require to be trimmed, plucked, threaded or shaped.
Very little eyebrows can be attributed to a variety of causes : stress, medication, illness, & even genetic disorder.
Sometimes, you will nerve or shape them too thin. You have thick brows to start with but as you try to get right shape you end up removing too much. It is safer to shape them professionally at a salon for first time or 2 & follow up on the own by following the original shape.
One of the first things to do when the eyebrows do not grow back is to instantly stop plucking or threading the eyebrows & let them grow back to their full thickness again – if probable.
Dip the finger in castor oil & massage the eyebrow well. Do this for the other eyebrow as well. Leave it on & go to bed. Take care not to use too much oil as it should not drip into eyes. Rinse quietly next morning with the face wash.
Here are some other home remedies to make the eyebrows grow
Cold milk
Apply some cold milk to eyebrows & leave it on for about 20 minutes. Rinse off. Repeat twice everyday for two months.
Olive oil
Massage eyebrows with olive oil to thicken the hair growth. Take care to massage in the same direction as the growth. As a bonus, the existing hair on brow as well looks darker & softer with this massage.
Aloe vera gel
Aloe vera gel is great when used frequently. Likewise, coconut oil too works magic for the hair growth & massages. The same magic works for thickening eyebrows.
Fenugreek seeds
Soak a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds in water for 4 – 5 hours & make a paste. Apply on brows at bedtime. Rinse off in the morning. You can also mix almond oil to this paste.
Onion juice
Fresh onion juice will be a bit pungent & smelly but it can help with the growth of eyebrows.
Egg yolk
Apply the egg yolk with finger tip or cotton balls on the eyebrows and keep it for 15 – 20 minutes and then rinse off.
