Eyebrow transplant using pubic hair instead of scalp hair?

User Avatar

Got eyebrows tattooded 5 times over 20 years because they never grew back completely after over tweezing them. My hair is thinning and would rather look into using pubic hair which is straight, short, thick and not curly at all. Would the donor site be risky , painful, look weird? What is appx. cost for procedure? Looking for a full beautiful eyebrow. Last tattoo scab pulled off at least 50% of my brow hair which I doubt will grow back, will it? It was very aggressive, I was swollen for days. Thank You.
