I have a friend who's doing a hairdressing apprenticeship, he asked me if id mind if he bleached my hair for practice. The hair looks great, but I cant believe it!!! HE BLEACHED MY FRIGGIN' EYEBROWS!!! Does anyone know how long eyebrows take to grow out......? I look like a friggin' alien.....:cry:
shave parts of them off :P then you'll be too cool for school :P
To distract attention to your eyebrows, you could always take up on juggling or something. Or you could just not wear pants.
No pants? hmm..... :love:
Eyebrows...it takes about 2 years before they're fully grown back.
I bet you wish you saw my post in the eyebrow section about not dying your eyebrows blonde when you dye your hair blonde now don't you? Get yourself down to a beauty salon and get them to dye your eyebrows to a light brown shade.
God yeah...
Can we get some pictures??
No I don't have a digital camera....:(
If you have a scanner, you can scan your face. It's hot, but it's worth it.
So dye them.

On a sidenote, I wouldn't even let my mother cut my hair. Hair cutting is only to be done by people who are paid to do it, and even then, the people who cut your hair should not know you personally before you first get your hair cut.
You didn't notice that he was putting the bleach on your eyebrows??
No i did'nt..... I only realised what he had done when I got out of the shower and saw his face.....
just use some dark makeup stuff :p
What the heck. I hope you wore goggles or something. Otherwise he could have blinded you. I've bleached my hair many times, and it warns explicitly NEVER ON THE EYEBROWS. It could cause blindness. And after I mix the crap up I can understand. It burns the hell out of my nose worse than regular bleach. I can only imagine how my eyes would feel having that crap right above them. Of course I use a 10-minute solution. Maybe yours took longer and didn't need to be as potent.
Do eyebrows really take so long to grow back?

THIS is why folks! Right here!
I got that too. But they just didn't know. Besides, pale eyebrows do look kinda weird. Plus you see lots of people dye their hair. Eyebrows are always dark. And it looks fine. *Shrug*
If you dye your hair blonde and your eyebrows are black or dark brown it looks very unnatural unless you've got really skinny plucked to within an inch of their life eyebrows. Then you can probably get away with not dying them, because you can barely see them anyway. And it also looks very unnatural if you dye them blonde,because you will end up looking like an albino. You need to dye them light brown. You can easily do this yourself at home with a body/facial hair bleaching kit. But you need to constantly watch the colour change because if you don't your light brown eyebrows you desire could very quickly become undesirable ginger ones. You put it on and ignore any time guidelines that appear on the packaging you just have to sit infront of a mirror and wait til you see them turn light brown then go and wash it off. Also don't forget that with the bleach on top of the eyebrows they will look darker so don't think "there not that light yet" and leave them til they are too light. I hope that saves you all from any future eyebrow dying mishaps.
Er. Some salons won't do it for you because it's illegal in some places. However, many don't care and might just do it anyway.
If the bleach really overdid it, your best bet is to dye it. If the lighter hair is simply too brassy or bright, you'll be better off with a toner gloss. They recondition the hair and turn the color down a few notches.
I usually do it myself, and it says not to use it near eyes or anywhere else on your body, but he just went on and did it... Still can't remember him doing it though...Quote:
