Apply lemon juice to your eyebrows! The natural acidity of the lemon juice can help lighten the hair over time. Apply fresh lemon juice to your eyebrows using a cotton ball and leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing it off. Just keep in mind that this method may not produce significant results, and remember to moisturize your eyebrows afterward to prevent dryness.

Use an eyebrow pencil that is a lighter shade than your current eyebrow hair, or try a brow gel (which comes in various shades from light brown to blonde). You can also use concealer to lighten your eyebrows.

Question

I have black eyebrows to match my black hair, and I'm not allowed to remove my eyebrows in my culture. I thought I should bleach the parts that I don't like over summer. Are there any tips to help?

Community Answer

Bleaching your hair is a great way to conceal hairs you don't want and cannot remove. Just be cautious when you do bleach it and not accidentally bleach hairs that you want to keep. A good idea is to get it bleached professionally to avoid accidents. Instead of bleaching, you can also try high coverage foundations to wear out. Try MAC Studio Sculpt, Estee Lauder's Double Wear, L'Oreal Infallible Lasting Perfecting Foundation or any maximum coverage foundations from your local drugstore. Just make sure to swatch test it and buy the most suitable type for your skin.

Question

I have tried bleaching my eyebrows, as they are black and I have blond hair. I cannot get it right, they always turn out ginger. Help?

The thing is, when you have dark hair, there are red undertones, so when you bleach your hair, it'll turn ginger. The more you bleach, the lighter your hair will get.

I've always read that it is dangerous to use any kind of bleach or hair color on the brows. Can it cause eye damage or blindness?

It could, so you need to know what you're doing and be very careful. If you think you might end up hurting yourself, go to a professional to get your brows done.
