For a more natural look: How to dye your eyebrows at home

Dyeing your eyebrows emphasizes each individual hair and makes them appear fuller. It saves time when applying makeup to your eyebrows every day, and if you do it yourself, you don't need to go to a beauty salon. 

Dyeing your eyebrows yourself is very easy

Dyeing your eyebrows at home is relatively easy and quick. It is also comparatively inexpensive. If you follow a few simple basic rules, you don't have to worry about ending up with black bars on your face. With these tips, nothing should go wrong:

Have all your tools ready

Usually, you buy a ready-made eyebrow kit that already contains the most important tools. Choose an eyebrow color that is closest to your natural hair color. If you are unsure, it is often advisable to choose a shade lighter to avoid too much contrast. A slanted brush is very useful for applying the color evenly and covering every hair. An eyebrow brush helps to comb the brows into shape before and after coloring. You will need a small container to mix the color. Cotton swabs and cotton pads are used to correct the shape and remove the color. If you pluck your eyebrows, you should also have a pair of slanted tweezers ready.

Step-by-step instructions for dyeing

Before you begin, make sure your eyebrows and the surrounding skin are clean and dry. Use mild cleansing products to remove any residue from makeup or skincare products.
Apply the dye quickly to both eyebrows using an applicator or brush. All hairs should be covered with color, but at the same time it is important not to paint over the contour. Excess color can be easily removed from the edges with a damp cotton swab.
It is essential to observe the correct application time. If in doubt, it is better to shorten the time to achieve a natural look. You can also achieve a gently accentuated brow by cleaning the beginnings of the eyebrows after about half the time and leaving the dye on only the outer two-thirds until the end.
After the desired application time, remove the dye with a damp cotton pad. Start with the eyebrow on which the dye was applied first.
Eyebrows should only be plucked after dyeing, as their shape is more visible and pronounced after the treatment.
After dyeing, it is recommended to treat the eyebrows with a hair oil to keep them supple and well-groomed.
