well my hair is naturally a very light blonde color, almost white.
but I dye my hair frquently and I still have blonde eyebrows.
I feel weird with having mis matched eyebrows.
Is it safe to dye them yourself?
Do salons dye them?
Should I just forget about dying them, eyebrows don't really matter?
-.-

Use a taupe eyebrow powder along with good technique and an angled brush, and you won't need to dye your eyebrows.

where do you think I could find this, "taupe eyebrow powder"?
Just about any store, do you think?
or would it be better to eyeliner my eyebrows?

Well, taupe is a colour and not a brand or anything special like that, if that's what you meant by the quotation marks.

It's a greyish-brown, and it works for virtually every hair colour. If you can't find powder specially for eyebrows, then a taupe-coloured eye shadow should suffice.

Oh, stencils are good too, like one_and_only said.

Yup. A makeup counter should be okay.

^ Just for your reference. To get a general idea, since you seem to be a novice to this. =p


By the way, to answer your original question, dying your eyebrows is fine. In fact, people dye eyebrows pretty often, but more often to lighten dark brows, since any amount of plucking can't fix that. In your case, using a brush should be okay.

Eyebrows grow out really fast so there's not much point dyeing it... done it before, wasn't really worth it. They'll do it for you at a salon, defenitely not by yourself. I have dyed blonde-ish hair right now, so I just draw in my eyebrows brown. So much easier.

I've never dyed my hair before, i'm not sure if I've remembered correctly, but doesn't the packaging usually say "do not dye eyebrows" or something?

Just have your hairdresser do it whenever you color your hair.

It only takes about five minutes. And they usually don't charge you.

if you dye ur hair urself, just dab a little bit on about half way thru the wait time. just be careful. I've been doing this for...7 years now. It wont hurt.

And actually ur hairdresser probably wont do it because you arent "supposed" to without a proper dye ki. I've priced those and ur lookin at about 25-45 bucks. I've asked several hair dressers to do it for me and they said they would have to charge because its a separete application because if you go blind you ca sue. I had one hair dresser who just gave me theleftover dye and said do it urself. hehe
