I cut down my eyebrows too short. It's been months now and I haven't seen the hairs I cut down lengthen at all! Suggestion?

Question

I'm really worried because now my eyebrows look awkward. It's bothering me. I can't afford to buy lattise or pay for expensive procedures to renew my eyebrows. I've been using an eyebrow serum. It helped to grow some of my eyebrow hairs but their light, thin, and short.

If you have eyebrow hair loss issues, see a doctor for an exam.  There isn't much you can gain from the Internet without an exam

Unless you have plucked the eyebrows often, which can lead to permanent traction hair loss, your eyebrows should regrow.  Cosmetic concealers can help for now while they grow in.  Latisse may boost the rate of growth and you can use this temporarily.  Good luck to you.

The cycle for brow hair is shorter than for scalp hair but you have to give it time.  Rogiane can help speed regrowth and it is a cheap alternative to Latisse.  REvitabrow also seems to work well in my experience.Don't panic, though.  It will regrow.Good Luck!

They should regrow. Mine, for example, are cut regularly when I get a hair cut and they never stop growing. Wait a full hear. You might try Latisse if they don't regrow after a year.
