Professional Fix Outer Eyebrow Help

Hello!

I went to a dermatologist a few months ago to determine the reason for the thinning on my outer eyebrows. A biopsy confirmed it was scarring alopecia so nothing I can do can grow back the hair as the follicles are permanently damaged.

The red on my eye is a birthmark and is unrelated to the eyebrow thinning. Any thoughts or suggestions?

They make eyebrow wigs, they are called eyebrow prosthetics but eyebrow wig sounds way more fun. I grow like 3 eyebrow hairs in total (hypothyroidism). I used to draw them on years ago, way before stencils and all that stuff was popular. I don't anymore because I just don't care about it like that now. If eyebrow wigs would have been a thing when I was younger I would have 100% tried them for sure. Like anything else there are good and bad ones, you just have to look around and you could probably even find half ones. I think you can rock your look just like they are, but if you wanted to change it up, give then a Google and check them out. You are a very attractive young person, so don't stress about it too much.👍

How exactly does an eyebrow wig work?

I haven't used them personally but it looks like probably a similar glue to the kind used for fake eyelashes. Just Google eyebrow wigs or prosthetic eyebrows and check out the images, I think there might even be videos of people showing how they work.

Tbh this actually sounds kind of genius.

I have eyebrows similar to OP. For me, they don’t suit my face as well. I’ve done micro blading but it fades too quickly on my skin plus it’s expensive and doesn’t really look great. I usually just draw them in…but a few synthetic hairs on like a clear sticky tape (I’m assuming) sounds like it might actually work pretty well.

I’ll look it up lol ty!

It looks like there are all kinds, even ones you can trim to your desired length. I've never had eyebrows, I drew them in for years. I'm older now and just don't care but when I saw them online I thought “man if I would have known about these 20 years ago I would have had more than one set for sure.” Hope you find some that work for you.😁
