Eyebrows help - sparse and going grey!

[ChocolateHazlenutButter]

I’ve never had very thick eyebrows and have always maintained them with plucking or sometimes threading and using some eyebrow pencil. Now in my late 40s they’re a lot sparser and annoyingly I’m now getting several long brow hairs that are much lighter (in denial but must be silver!) and stick out. They’re like my dad’s eyebrows 😑

I plucked a few out yesterday that were particularly long but noticed after doing my makeup that there must be some more light ones as i could still see them through the eyebrow pencil. I don’t have a huge amount of grey hair but clearly my eyebrows are going first.

any ideas for the best solutions? I’ve never tinted them as I react to eyelash tint (but not hair dye) but I’m guessing tinting wouldn’t cover these new light ones anyway. What else can I try?

I tried beard dye on mine as I didn’t want to keep plucking the white ones out and making mine thinner. However after chatting to my hairdresser she asked why I didn’t just use my own hair dye on my brows - I’ve have done ever since perfect match no allergic reaction - fab. However I am yet to find an answer to the thinning of them so watching this thread with interest I already take collegen (Willpowders) but I’ve not noticed a difference in my brows.

I used to use henna on my eyebrows at the same time as doing my hair - but it was time consuming and a bit uncomfortable. Ordinary box dye was terrible for my hair so I would never have risked it on my face.

Since I stopped colouring my hair (which has massively improved its condition) I’m reluctant to use more than mere cosmetics on my eyebrows. At the moment I use a combination of Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer and the same brand’s Volumizing Tinted Brow Definer. (The first covers the greys effectively, then the second gives a more natural brushed look.) I loved the idea of the Dipbrow Pomade, but found it far too messy in practice, unless I had half a morning to spend applying it. Though I still use the double ended brush I bought for that to finish the process. I’m about to add a Benefit Brow Setter Gel to the routine as it has better reviews than the ABH equivalent.

Don't pluck any more because as others than said- they might not grow back!

This is controversial and I realise NOT recommended at all, but I've been doing it for 10yrs with no issues. I use L'oreal casting colours on my hair and do it myself. Its a semi permanent box dye. When I do my hair, I use a cotton bud to also put some on my eyebrows. It covers the grey and lasts about the same amount of time as it takes for me to notice re growth on my head hair.

Apologies - I meant Anastasia Beverly Hills Volumizing Tinted Brow Gel.
