Rules for Dying your eyebrows?

[Piper212]

Is there a rule where your eyebrows should be the same color as your hair? I have dirty blond hair and my eye brows are black. Should I dye them to the same color as my hair?

There are no real rules about eye brows... Generally, people want their eyebrows to be a shade or 2 or 3 darker than their hair colour.  Blondes with blonde eyebrows usually pencil in their brows to darken them so they are visible.  You lighten your brows and you may find that your eyebrows have disappeared. 

You also have to be very careful in using things like hair bleaches of any kind around your eyes (even if they were designed for use on your brow).  You can always consult with a salon.

If you want to lighten your brows at home, get some Jolene (usually found in pharmacies, over the counter for aboutt $7).

Mix a small amount and apply to eyebrows. The idea is to lighten but not go blond.

So check every minute or two until you get desired results.

I believe the general unspoken rule is if your eyebrows aren't the same color as your hair color they should be a few shades darker. I've seen women at salons dye their eyebrows the same color they dye their hair - depending on the color this could look unnatural. If you have blonde hair and black eyebrows I would def. dye them brown or lighten then a bit because this tends to look harsh on most peole. I don't think it's as noticeable if say your hair was dyed red and your eyebrows are brown but black eyebrows/blonde hair generally isn't a good look. That is just my personal opinion. If you like the way your dark eyebrows look with your hair screw the rules and don't dye them /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> There are no rules when it comes to your appearance. As long as your comfortable and feel good rules don't matter.

For your dirty blonde hair, the best color for your eyebrows is golden brown or medium brown. But before dying your eyebrows, you should lighten their black color by applying facial bleaching cream on them so that you get better shade after dying them.
