This might be a crazy concern, but I'm a guy early 60s. Looking at older pictures of myself, I used to have eyebrows. Now, just a few hairs. I know it sounds vain, but has anyone had any success at reversing this? There seem to be a million miracle products, but has anyone with this "problem" actually had personal results with anything?
Thanks!
I know a lot of people who have had good results (everywhere from subtle to dramatic) with Jamaican black castor oil. Easy to get on Amazon, lots of good reviews. Just apply each night before bed with a qtip.

Have your thyroid function tested....Hypothyroidism is associated with thinning of the eyebrows-- particularly the outer third.

Me too, at 70 now I have to constantly snip off the wildly long ones. Most are still brown, just a few gray, unlike my head which is now probably 70% gray. I don't pluck the gray ones because a wise person once told me that removing a gray hair causes two more to come out.

It's not only a male problem, women have this too. I in particular. I don't know if there are ways to regrow it. Maybe your dr can tell you this. What I do - and many of my girlfriends do - i dye my eyebrows when I dye my hair and then, when I go out, I have a special eyebrow pencil to "fill" them in. Dark eyebrows make us look a bit younger.
I had mine tattooed back in my 40s. So I don't think much about it, except the occasional gray that I do pluck out. They are subtle, not like the artificial-looking micro-bladed ones of today. It didn't hurt, either. No one has ever noticed or commented. I'm happy with them. Same with my tattooed eyeliner.

Not all microbladed are artifical looking. It's just that the current trend is for dramatic eyebrows. But microblading can be done in a much more natural style. I had mine done a couple of years ago and didn't want the trendy brows.

Very nice! Yours are the most natural-looking I have seen. I wouldn't have guessed you had them done.
