Hey guys,

I am 20 and started plucking at 13. My shape got messed up over the years from my own doing & the salon's doing a couple years ago (and it was a high end salon!)...

Olive oil/castor oil is helping, but some of the hairs grow in too light and fine to even see...I guess from follicle damage? I thought this only happened too old ladies. :

I know I can fill in, but I'm having trouble finding a pencil or powder that matches...And I'm not a pro at filling in and they end up looking huge and freaky.

Here are some pictures of my eyebrows. All the products I've tried are too brown or red and just plain weird on me. lol

My eyebrows when I liked how they looked ages 13&14:







My new eyebrows lol:

The salon took too much off the bottom and they look droopy now & they get oily where there used to be hair. :







I feel obsessed with my eyebrows & constantly unhappy with them. I feel like everyone is looking at them. I don't know if I have eyebrow dysmorphia or if they really do look bad. I worry about what guys are thinking too (I'm single:) Sorry I sound pretty pathetic.

ANYWAY, Any tips for a good product that would match my hair, oily eyelids, and how to get them to grow back thick & how they could look better?

 
Honestly your brows are still very full so I wouldn't worry about that.

Sometimes while I am plucking it seems like I screw up the shape and using a stencil helps me. I fill in mine with Milani Brow Fix. It is an inexpensive small kit that includes two brushes, tweezers and three powder colors. If my brows are going a bit crazy I just use some brow gel.

 
I tried the milani brow fix a year ago & I felt like it didn't match because it was so brown. My eyebrows have a weird gray tone to them.

 
I don't think show any bad after effects from excessive tweezing. They look just fine. As you get older, they will shorten though. Mine have started to do this in recent yrs, so I have to fill them in.

 
Your eyebrows still appear to be very full to me. But, if you feel more comfortable filling them in I'd suggest Wet n'Wilds eyebrow kit. It's cheap and works really well, I think it comes with a powder and wax. Good luck.

 
Thanks for the product suggestions.

I just feel like they look droopy now & lost the natural arch.

 
Are you trying to avoid plucking all together because I don't see any damage done from the first pictures to now. It looks like you just need to pluck the arch back in and they would look the same as they did. As far as brow products, I had serious issues trying to find a brown pencil that wasn't red! I finally splurged and got the Anastasia Brow Wiz in Medium Ash and it is the perfect color! I think it would work for you so amazingly! I color my hair crazy colors and I needed a brow pencil that would look good with all the different hair colors and this works!

 
Girly, get your hands on some eyebrow powder and have a lady at the makeup counter show you how to fill them in!!
