Eyebrow Tattooing?
Anyone have any experience w/ this? I'm one of those people w/ light hair & skin, and my eyebrows also manage to trail off into nothing about 3/4 of the way to where they should be continuing. I find I have to be really careful about the color pencil / powder I use or I start to channel Joan Crawford (ok, not that bad, but anything brownish contrasts too much w/ my coloring).
Also how would you go about finding someone who is "good" to do this? Obviously w/ any tattoo you don't want to be stuck w/ bad results...."The only way you can hurt the body is not use it. Inactivity is the killer and, remember, it's never too late."

I guess it's like with a good hairpiece, you never recognize them because they look so realistic. Unfortunately, I've seen many women with horrible crayoned on eyebrows that just look absurd.
Otoh, there are worse things than sparse eyebrows.
Proceed with caution. Of course, it seems you're already thinking in that vein.Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Join Rx Muscle on Facebook!

Sassy, I had it done 15 years ago and it looks very natural.

I've been thinking about this lately too. A friend's mother had it done 10 years ago and loves it. She's a redhead gone white and it looks great. Scarey commitment though... Originally Posted by Amazon Doll

I'll try to include some references as I continue my research on this. Some initial stuff:

Wow! I can't believe you remembered that!! I have my lips and eyeliner tattooed. I have plenty of eye brows that are fairly dark. Tattooing the eyebrows is pretty painless though, because there aren't a lot of nerve endings in that area. Just talk to whoever you find to do it, look at pictures of their work. They can do it in strokes so it looks like eyebrow hairs..instead of a colored in stencil looking thing stuck on your face!! You also want to make sure they use a high quality ink!!! The soft touch machine feels much better and is quieter than a regular tattoo machine too. Originally Posted by tammyp

^^ Thx for your input - I need to find someone locally. I did find one place just north of where I live where I might go in for a consult. Nice to know its not "painful"!

Na, eyebrows aren't painful at all from what I've heard. Eyeliner doesn't really "hurt" either...it's more irritating than anything. Lips, on the other hand, hurt like f-ing hell!!!!

Mine has faded over the years. I am fair haired so I always had a "washed out" look and was not big on using make-up with my active lifestyle. So I had eyeliner & eyebrows done and loved it. I have needed to go get the eyeliner retouched since it has faded but the eyebrows look more natural now that they have faded some. I thought they were to dark when they were first done.

I have light brown eyebrows that are sparse and trail off as well. I was told by a doctor that Latisse, which is for eyelashes, can be used for eyebrows as well.
I was even considering an 'eyebrow' transplant to thicken them up.
Has anyone ever done that or seen the results of that?
