Anyone got Alopecia that affects the eyebrows and hairline?

[SweetMagnolia423]

i always had reasonable healthy eyebrows. Rarely plucked because they naturally created a decent shape with only a little tidy required here and there.
When I gave birth to my first child, something changed and it was a slow process over months where I gradually noticed my eyebrows were itchy and over time I noticed what looked like that 90s look where the trend to shave 2 lines across the eyebrow was cool started to happen but without me doing anything to them. Then as time went on my eyebrows became thinner and thinner until I lost all hair. I also noticed my hairline had also receded (it’s very noticeable when my hair is tied back).
The thing that bothers me is I find that people don’t believe me. They think I plucked my eyebrows out. When I explain what has actually happened, I always get this expression of ‘I find that hard to believe’.
it really pisses me off because I didn’t ask for this to happen. It’s been 18 yrs since it first happened and I have about 5 hairs on one eyebrow that has managed to grow back. Nothing on the other. I had them microbladed in the past when helps but I still feel like people can tell it’s fake.
i don’t know anyone else who this has happened to and wondered are there others out there in a similar situation to me? Did anything make the hair grow back?

Have you had your bloods done? Low thyroid is terrible for vanishing your eyebrows.

I’ve bloods taken over the years but as far as I know my Thyroid is fine.

Have a look at frontal fibrosing alopecia. If it turns out to be that, you could get some help to stave it off from a dermatologist.

My brows went during a bout of alopecia areata, where I lost patches of head hair, they grew back but the brows didn't, it's been 10+ years now. My hairline has receded slightly (I can tell from old photos) but I'm not sure if that's connected. My thyroid and other bloods were fine, with thyroid I think you mainly lose the tails of the brows not the whole thing. I had mine tattooed as powder brows and I draw hairstrokes on and add some brow powder every morning which only takes a few seconds as I have the shape there, previously I used to spend hours trying to draw them on from scratch with brow pencil and feel self-conscious / worry about them rubbing off. Now I get compliments on them. I'd far rather have them grow back but I am resigned to them not doing.

When I got my brows microbladed, the individual hair strokes blurred quite quickly until it became a solid brow. I read about it and apparently if the hair loss was due to alopecia from an autoimmune response, then my body will attack the ink there as well.
I'm getting the ink lasered off and trying again.

Yes, my practitioner advised against microblading, partly that and also I am older with oily skin none of which are a good basis for microblading. The powder brows aren’t blocky but do look a bit flat, which is why i add the hairstrokes myself. They have also faded a bit, but it’s over 5 years since I had them done now. I hope you find a solution.
