Thick, bushy brows are at the height of style right now, and after the over plucked trend of the 90s, everyone’s pain thresholds are very happy about it! Fuller brows frame your face beautifully and give you that love, natural look that we’re all constantly trying to capture.
Now, we aren’t all born with the natural bushy brows of Brooke Shields, but does that mean we can’t channel that look with the help of a few products and crafty application techniques! If you’re trying to grow your brows or you want a foolproof way of making them look fuller, you’ve come to just the right spot! Here’s how you can get fuller brows.
Castor Oil
Castor oil has been a bit of a miracle hair growth oil for centuries, and a light slick of it every now and then can help you to grow a few more hairs through your brows and eyelashes. This feeds your follicles and promotes growth whilst also conditioning and caring for the brows you already have. Look for pure, organic castor oil and apply weekly with a small Q-tip for even distribution.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is another tried and tested product for helping to grow and condition hair. The rich, fatty acids and vitamins extracted from coconuts are great for stimulating growth.
Look for pure, extra virgin coconut oil instead of the stuff you would normally use to cook. This is great for clearing sebum in the pores which can block your hair follicles from developing properly, if you have dry or inflamed skin in and around your brows then this is absolutely the one for you, plus it smells fantastic.
Apply Face Products Carefully
When you’re applying your cleansers, toners, moisturisers, SPF and even base makeup, it’s super important that you’re mindful of how and where you’re putting it. Too much friction throughout your brows can dislodge the hair’s root and cause frequent shedding. When you think about how much you touch your face during your makeup and skincare routines, you realise how easy it is to create brow loss. Be careful and avoid too much friction in and around your brows.
Tweak Your Diet
Healthy diet equals healthy hair, and that includes your eyebrows. Make sure that your diet is full of essential vitamins such as B12, E, and C, these are all needed to maintain thick glossy hair. Choose plenty of leafy vegetables, proteins, natural fats, and whole foods to ensure that your hair and health are both taken care of. Food is supposed to nourish and enrich you, once you switch to eating holistically and mindfully you’ll see some dramatically positive results – in all areas!
Stimulate Hair Growth
Gentle stimulation can help to encourage hair growth. Although you shouldn’t be bashing your brows around when you’re applying products, you can give them a soft massage once or twice a week to encourage blood flow to the area. Blood rushes to areas that have been physically stimulated and this nourishes the follicles, helping them to grow faster. Be very careful here and don’t overdo it, otherwise, you’ll get the opposite effect.
Makeup Application
The quickest and easiest way to a fuller brow? Apply eyebrow makeup, of course! For a barely-there look, choose an eyebrow gel in a clear or in a shade that’s a match to your hair colour. If you want to add more volume, a cool-toned eyebrow powder applied with an angled brush and then blended through with a spoolie will be perfect. For a stronger, bolder brow, choose a firm eyebrow pencil to draw on hairs or use a potted gel.
There you have it, fuller brows in no time!
