anyone else here, besides me, bleach their brows?

[orodwen]

i'm doing it right now & it got me to wondering.

 

[lovemichelle]

no. i just pluck mine and fill them in.

 

[Miss_Behave]

no, but I still wanna see it!

of the bleached brows and the santa clause-look

 

[orodwen]

unfortunately i can't remember where the frick-n-frack i put our digital camera, otherwise i'd try to. i took the bleach off before it reached the level of the model in sephora's holiday catalog but i may shoot for that after i get my roots touched up sometime in the next few weeks.

 

[Miss_Behave]

oh yes pretty pretty please!! since I saw it in that "making-faces" book I'm really thinking about it but just can't imaging how it looks if it's not in a book

 

[Turbokittykat]

Nope, if anything I have mine dyed darker.

 

[jess98765]

never tried, but very tempting to

 

[AlliSwan]

Where do you go to get yours dyed darker? It would be nice to wake up with eyebrows already on my face.

I did once. I bleached them with face hair bleach. I only wanted to lighten them just a bit. I put tissue over the bleach to keep it from falling into my eyes. It looked fine when I was done.

 

[orodwen]

yes, zap, that's what i use. jolen's in fact. i'm wanting to shoot for that holiday model on sephora's site (and in their catalog) but i don't wanna scare dh plus i don't know if mine are dense enough to look as defined as hers.

i think until you know what your brows can handle it's best to lift by checking every 2 min. there's directions in the box of jolen bleach, btw.

I used to, and I would dye them to match whatever color my fringe was at the time (I went through a variety of colors, some of you may remember some of them).

 

[Gloriamgo]

I always get them dyed to match my base color every time i get my hair done, my hair is naturally a dark dark brown but i have it very heavily highlighted blond with a slightly darker base, and i HATE it when i see girls with blond hair and dark eyebrows, so i dye them. it fades/grows out pretty quickly though, so by the time i need to get my hair done again, they match my roots LOL

Oh yeah, and everytime i get my hair done, i end up going to the mac counter and my ma always tells me how much she loves my eyebrows...so i guess they don't look bad

 

[Peaches]

I hardly have enough brows to bleach. Ive never even waxed them and I have to fill them in to make them look "natural". Ironic. Haha.

 

[KMFH]

ok, ive tried to bleach mine before, but got scared and wiped it off fast. I have almost black brows and brown hair, has anyone else here bleached brows w/ facial bleach that dark before, and if so, do they not go orange? TIA

Honestly you must be very comfortable with your inherent structure to bleach them light. i have done it numerous times on set and the model always looks very alienesc. i love the look but it will change your entire appearance. looks better on very angular faces.

also:
this will sting/ itch a bit
make sure if you want blonde not yellow to bleach them to white
using a lower volume developer for a longer time in 2 applications
cover with plastic wrap so the bleach does not dry up
tone with an ash color natural appearance

*very few people are actually experienced with doing this process well*

takes about 3 months for the natural to grow back completely
