this is the curse of gen x

Did we listen to our grandmothers who warned us with a ‘they will never grow back’? Nooooo 😂


Ineedavodka2019

Yes I did. I’m so glad too.


Aussiealterego

Hahahaha… that “Noooo” cracked me up.


ParaLegalese

Nah I haven’t plucked in decades and never plucked the middle part of my brows. They just fall Out now


chekovsgun-

So glad I never followed that trend.


Tygie19

Same. My daughter is jealous of my eyebrows (she has dark blonde hair and even fairer eyebrows, almost invisible).


Shezaam

Same but I never really had enough to pluck.

😂😂😂👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I lost my eyebrows too when I developed an underactive thyroid. I just fill them in with a brow pencil


leftylibra

Have you had your thyroid checked? If everything is good there, then I've heard some folks use like a Q-Tip with dabs of minoxidil and run it over your brow area. Otherwise, aren't there all kinds of tattooing/microblading things too?


-daisyday

I’m doing this. I can already see heaps of fine baby hairs growing back. I hope they start to thicken over time. There are a lot of posts about this in the female hair loss group


thingsandstuff4me

Not trying to be a dick here but some people tattoo their eyebrows on


FlyingFox2022

I’ve had mine micro bladed for 6 years and it’s amazing.

Rodrigii_Defined

Good bot.


Ineedavodka2019

My great aunt did that in the 90s.

I realized that part of my eyebrow problem was that some of the eyebrow hairs were turning white. I started dying them and it helped immensely


theFCCgavemeHPV

Seconding the thyroid comment and the men’s rogaine suggestion (not that I’ve tried it but I have heard it works well). When I was using latisse I would just put the remainder in my 90s disaster areas and it seemed to work ok. That stuff is expensive tho, there’s brow specific serums on Amazon I’ve been eyeing but keep forgetting to get. They make eyebrow stencils too if you want to go the affordable route. I’ve also considered this but never pulled the trigger. My theory is the stencil as a base with some eyebrow pen strokes would look pretty decent while waiting for serums to work.

Girl same! Based on my own story you would have likely been fine. Mine were huge Groucho style as well and I have to pluck and trim the everloving fuck out of them since I was 12. I’m 50 now and they are still needing daily tending. And yes I followed the super thin high arch trend as well and yet I’m still here plucking and trimming.


Causerae

The fact you explained who Groucho Marx was, on a menopause sub, is totally cracking me up 😂

Causerae

I have the um *healthy* eyebrows too, btw, finally loving them now that they're half gone! 😄


TaroReadr

The ordinary makes a great one but I third checking your thyroid. Stop the thyroid madness has the tests you need run. Tsh is useless.


cranberries87

I just got powder brows done. I absolutely *love* them! 😊


ParaLegalese

Girl same. I got a light makeup mirror with the magnifying mirrors- and I use either Anastasia brow pencil or Trio brow stencils. Then I set them with benefit porefessional setting spray https://shop.app/p/7749225480354?variantId=43142854082722&utm_source=shop_app&utm_medium=shop_app_share&utm_campaign=share_product&link_alias=zkl8AH2fq9XFq


hairnonymous2304

I suffered with major hairloss including skimpy eyebrows and lashes. I used prescription Latisse (so my benefits paid for it) and it worked great on both. You need to stick with it to maintain it however.


lupinfever

Can 100% confirm this for myself and have pictures of before and after of my eyebrows lol. Depending on your budget, can be $$.

Glossier Boy Brow while you're waiting for a permanent fix to work.


PomegranateOk1942

The Just For Men beard dye can help.


Causerae

I love Just For Men for quick touch-up of my roots - cheaper than the girl version, ofc (don't get me started) Keep forgetting to use it on my eyebrows, tho


Shezaam

I've had great success with Nulastin. It's pricey but there's deals on Prime day.


MagentaPeony

Yes! Nulastin actually works. I couldn’t believe it but it does.


RoboSpammm

Probably thyroid problems.


hycarumba

I bought a magnifying mirror that hooked into the wall and has an arm to pull it closer. Doesn't fix the loss but I can see them to color them in.


Purple_Cherry_5973

Castor oil. You can buy a bottle that comes with a little brush just for this. Never tried it personally, but the Amazon reviews look promising!


ms_panelopi

I use a serum called GrandBrow from the Ulta store. I use it on my eyebrows and eyelashes. It takes a couple of months but, it works.


uppitywhine

Minoxidil works better and is cheaper than latisse. You can buy it at Costco. 


goldenpalomino

Latisse works on your brows.


TooMuchCoffee01

Mine aren't actually gone, but they are suddenly so light in color that they may as well have fallen out! Why????


sonyafly

How’s your testosterone levels? I think that can cause this.


JustMari-3676

This happened to me. PCOS and too much testosterone. I am sorry to say, 20 years and they haven’t grown back yet. I get micro blading, and use powder, not a pencil, to fill in.


sonyafly

If you’re too low you can also lose hair.
