Why Your Eyebrows Aren’t Growing Back (Even Though You Stopped Tweezing)
You stopped tweezing. You’ve been leaving them alone. And you’re thinking… “Why do they still look thin?” I hear this all the time in my studio. A lot of my clients overplucked in the 90s or early 2000s. They did what everyone was doing. And now years later, they’re frustrated because their brows don’t look the same. Here’s what I explain to them.
Why are my eyebrows not growing back?
When you repeatedly pull hair from the root over time, the follicle can weaken. Sometimes it grows back thinner. Sometimes it grows slower. And sometimes it just needs more time than you expect. That doesn’t mean your brows are “ruined.” But it does mean they need to be handled differently.
I also see women accidentally interrupt regrowth by continuing to clean up tiny hairs. Those little baby hairs you want to remove? They’re often the ones trying to come back. And sometimes what looks like “no growth” is actually a shaping issue. If the structure has been thinned out for years, the sparse areas become more obvious — even if some hair is growing.
What is the BrowsbyDenise Process?
That’s why when you sit in my chair, I don’t just remove hair. I look at what we need to protect. I work with your growth pattern, not against it. Because sometimes it’s not that your brows won’t grow back. It’s that they need patience, protection, and the right hands guiding them.
