draw them in using Anastasia

They're going to grow back!

Threaded looks so much neater than plucked.

I recommend going to the Benefit Brow Bar at Ulta. They can show you how to fill in with makeup and, when you're ready again, shape your brows.

Castor oil (Jamaican black) at night plus time.

ps- Latisse can fill in your brows for you for a longer term solution. I've used it on lashes and brows and it really is incredible.

I don't want to minimize your pain here, OP, but I don't understand why you can't pluck them yourself when you see a stray out of line. You know what you want.

So sorry. I pretty much tried every place in the DMV. The one at Tysons is bad. I've had good experience at Montgomery Mall. I fully recommend Eyebrow Express on King St. in Alexandria. They speak English and follow instructions. I drive 3 hours just to get my eyebrows done here.

I just make sure I come in as early as I could because I noticed that the workers' arms get tired at the end of the day.

It won't be forever.

Go back and look at Michelle Obama's brows beginning their first year at the White House. Her brows were pencil thin. Later you see them filled in. Years of plucking, her brows will never fill in. She wears fake brows.

You can buy eyebrow filler that looks like hair until yours grow in again.

OP again. I really hope they're not ruined forever...

PPs, thanks so much for the suggestions! I will definitely check out Anastasia and buy the black seed oil.

I normally pluck, but find that they don't look as neat, so I thought I would try this place. I've always told workers to just clean the stray hairs and they do exactly that. This is the first time something like this has happened to me. Lesson learned!

Put black seed oil on them (buy at whole foods). And time. I'm sorry this happened to you! I recommend this on every eyebrow post but the Anastasia stencil kit saved my brows after threading for a long time. I have naturally thin eyebrows and do not have a lot to work with so this helps clean up the ones I can afford to let go and shows where to trim from the top. I do it at the beginning of every month. I do not touch anything in between. Nothing. They look great now about a year later.

So sorry this happened to you. I feel so bad for you! This is one of my fears.

So from here on out learn how to pluck yourself. Really no big deal. One at a time. Easy peasy. In the meantime just use a brow pencil or I use a light brown mascara to darken up and extend.

Good luck!

I went about 6 months doing nothing to my brows, hoping to see some growth. Today I finally bit the bullet and went into "Perfect Brow" threading shop in a mall and asked the worker there to just clean the area, nothing more b/c my brows were already too thin. Now they look even worse! The lady took way too much off, and they look completely f*cked up now. Really, really thin (more so than before) and slightly crooked. I am in tears just writing this. What do I do? Please, if anyone has any suggestions, I would be so grateful.
