“While it depends on many factors, including the tweezers you use, how often you pluck and how traumatic it is for your hair, you won't be stuck with thin eyebrows forever,” says dermatologist Shilpi Khetarpal, MD. “Most of the time, they grow back.”
How do you fix over-plucked eyebrows that won't grow back?
“The time-friendliest way to fix an over-plucked brow is to use a brow pomade to fill in the hollow and sparse areas of the brow,” says Lerma, who recommends using this brow pomade from Anastasia Beverly Hills to underline the brow and lightly feather in a shape that mimics the natural appearance of hair growth.
Why won't my eyebrows grow?
“It's about how traumatized the hair gets. If you pluck your eyebrow hair every day, you're doing damage, maybe even causing scarring. Then, the hairs won't grow back.” Anemia (a common blood disorder) or deficiencies in iron, vitamin D, biotin or zinc can also slow or stop hair growth.
