Eyebrow threading - bad experience!

[luckypeach]

hi all, I have been getting my eyebrows threaded for about 7 years now (different places). My eyebrows are not naturally groomed though they are fair so don't look too unruly. I think my eyebrows are naturally difficult to shape as they don't seem to match each other.

Last but one time I had them done, I paid a fortune and was disappointed with the result. (Not enough shape or definition and over-done). However, at the weekend I went somewhere really cheap and I could cry as she has REALLY over-threaded them. The thinner line makes me look harsh, I hate it.

What - if anything? can I do to make them look a bit better until they grow back? any advice most gratefully received, thank you.

You might be able to fill in your brows a bit - I find it very easy to overdo, but there are loads of videos on youtube showing how to fill in brows - some are better than others, but the video thumbnail usually shows a before/after picture so you might get an idea of which videos will appeal to you.

I like the Lisa Eldridge video - but it might not be enough for your brows: www.lisaeldridge.com/video/13333/my-brow-routine/#.U_Epq2MgvKc
She talks for around 4 minutes, then starts doing brows with different products.

Thankfully brow hairs seem to grow fairly quickly. But there are growth serums for lashes and brows that might work for you.
I've used one for my lashes and I was not keen so I personally wouldn't spend the money on it - I lost a lot of lashes after I stopped using it.
Some people find that vaseline helps the hairs grow quicker. I've got no experience with it myself though.

Vaseline! Amazing stuff. Slick them down every night - they helped mine go from patchy to just right.

You could fill them in? Mine are naturally thin and patchy. I use this and it's amazing. Lasts forever! I've had mine over 2 years and not nearly halfway through it yet.
