My eyebrows are a mess advice please

My eyebrows are a complete mess and have been for years if I'm honest. I have a fringe which hides them to an extent but I really don't want to always have to have a fringe.
I'm basically from the era of plucking them into a thin line. They no longer grow in fact I haven't touched them in years. They are also for some reason very black despite my natural hair being a mid brown colour and I often have highlights. I think this was another reason I over plucked them so much as they were so much darker than my hair.
Has Anyone got advice? Whenever I ask beauticians they always sell me whatever they do. Which is often really expensive or I'm not that sure about (I really don't like these thick eyebrows everyone has recently) especially if they match my black eyebrow colour.

I had mine microbladed. Changed my life! I had plucked mine too thin and they never grew back right. They were patchy and uneven. Now they're prefect. Not massive or anything, or too dark. Just very natural.

Or just get them tinted & shaped? I think managing your brows makes such a difference, for everyone.

Lighten your eyebrows. I use Joleyn and they don't turn blonde or orange. You need to check them every 2 minutes. Mine take 8 minutes in total but I always wipe a bit and check then recover if still needs more time to develop. It lightens my jet black eyebrows to dark brown which is much easier to fill and colour match with make up than jet black eyebrows. My face looks more friendly, softer and younger with lighter eyebrows.

Use castor oil to encourage growth.

@DonLewis would you be willing to post a pic of just your brows please? I've been thinking about getting mine microbladed but I'm so scared of having huge black slugs, I would love to see them done naturally!
