Can I dye my eyebrows after getting an eyebrow transplant?

Question

Hi, I had an eyebrow transplant and want to dye my hair so need to dye my eyebrows too. Can I dye them without the risk of them falling out? Thanks

Sanusi Umar, MD · Answer

If your eyebrows have healed and grown in, meaning it is several months post-surgery, dying them should not cause damage to the rooted follicles. However, be mindful that harsh chemicals like bleach can dry out and damage the hairs themselves, even if they do not come out at the root.

Jack Fisher, MD · Answer

Yes.  Most dyes should not effect the health of your hair whether your eyebrows or your head.

Yes, you can dye eyebrow hairs in the same manner as you would dye your scalp hair with the same precautions

Sheldon S. Kabaker, MD FACS (retired) · Answer

Eyebrow transplants usually are harvested from scalp hair. They can be dyed the same as scalp hair without danger of harming the hairs if proper technique is used.
