I nick my eyebrows with an electric facial trimmer to form eyebrow slits. I shave them frequently. Will they grow back? (Photo)

Asked By:CBMeas in Baltimore, MD

I shave the same area of my eyebrow about every month. I want to know if this repeated shaving of the same area will cause that area to stop growing hair. I use an electric facial razor which i will attach an image of. When I shave the area, i usually shave it down to the skin. I press the trimmer into my skin so that it trims down to the skin but i do not press down hard enough to cause any pain. Some tips to prevent hair loss in this procedure would be appreciated as well. Thank you :)
