How to color eyebrows at home?

At home, so that the result does not differ from coloring in a beauty salon? This question is asked by many girls and women. Coloring eyebrows and eyelashes can be done in different ways, but the main thing is to do this procedure correctly.

Eyebrows emphasize the depth of the look. If their line is uneven, pale or defiantly colored, then any makeup can be ruined.

Almost 96% of women do not have ideal eyebrows, so they are forced to use cosmetics to correct and color their eyebrows. To do this, you can use various means: pencil, powder, dyes, and in some cases tattooing.

How to color eyebrows?

Using dye to implement the idea (if the painting is of high quality) provides several advantages:

  1. With a job well done, the color on the eyebrows usually lasts up to 30-35 days. Therefore, there is no need for tinting.
  2. The dye in the summer at high temperatures does not lose its properties, which cannot be said about a pencil or ink.
  3. During the reception of water procedures or when playing sports, the makeup is not smeared and does not “float” - the paint stays firmly on the eyebrows.
  4. If the eyebrows are gray or faded, then the use of a dye is not only desirable, but also mandatory.

Permanent eyebrow tinting can be done in beauty salons or do it yourself, at home. For this, many women use henna. The procedure is simple, you just need to take into account some of the nuances. For eyebrow tinting, all the necessary materials and tools can be found in beauty salons or cosmetics stores.

Eyebrows dyed at home (choice of color)

To work at home, you first need to choose the color in which it was decided to dye the hairs. The number of colors to choose is limited: gray, black or brown are usually used. It is only necessary not to deviate from some rules:

  1. If a woman has dark hair, then the eyebrows should be dyed in a color 3 tones lighter than they are by nature.
  2. Blondes are recommended to do the opposite: the paint on the eyebrows must be 3 tones darker than their main color.
  3. Black paint is suitable only for brunettes by nature.
  4. Brown tones are recommended for blondes, brown-haired women and women with red hair. Henna is used for coloring.
  5. For discolored, gray, whitish or faded eyebrows, a gray dye should be used.
  6. You can get the desired shade by properly adjusting the time of the staining process.

Recently, a fashion has appeared to have hair on the head and eyebrows of the same color - the same dye is used for this. But on many women, such an “innovation” looks ridiculous, and it must be taken into account that hair dye is aggressive and when used on eyebrows, it can lead to their loss. This can be avoided by using henna.

Eyebrow tinting at home

It is not necessary to immediately apply the selected dye. First, eyebrow modeling and correction are performed. To do this, choose the desired shape and draw with a pencil. In this case, symmetry must be observed. If what a woman wants to get does not work out, then you can draw a shape that is close to what you want. In this case, natural bending is taken into account. Correction can also be made by plucking excess hairs. The work is done with tweezers.

The next stage is the disinfection of the treated areas with an alcohol-based lotion. This must be done before painting, so that the dye does not get on the opened wounds. If this is not done, then there may be an irritating allergic reaction.

Before starting the main work on eyebrows, you need to read the instructions attached to the paint and consistently follow all the steps described in it. In advance, you need to prepare all the tools that you may need.

A sample list of everything you need is below.

The face is prepared by cleansing it with soap and water and drying it. Apply cream or Vaseline around the eyebrows. The paint is diluted in any container, an oxidizing agent is added to it and they begin to paint. The composition is applied in a thick layer with a brush. So that nothing gets into the eyes, all the work is done, slightly leaning forward. After painting, wait 10 to 15 minutes. The longer the wait, the darker the color. When the period has passed, it is necessary to remove the excess with a cotton swab and rinse your face with warm water. If part of the dye has got on the skin, then the paint particles are removed with a means of eliminating waterproof mascara. When caring for eyebrows, burdock oil should be used, which can be applied with a small brush.

When coloring eyelashes, eyebrows, it must be borne in mind that the dye looks lighter than the color that will turn out after work is completed.

How to paint eyebrows with a pencil?

This item is used for makeup by almost all women. In this case, you can increase the range of colors that can be used for painting. The shade must be chosen darker than the color of the hair, but lighter than the mascara. If you use too dark a shade, the face will look older. The pencil used must be hard and very well sharpened, as this soft-type tool draws lines that smudge when heated or wet. At the same time, it is difficult to apply thin lines and strokes with such a soft pencil.

Before work, the eyebrows must be combed with a special brush. Then, using small dashed lines, draw the desired bend. At the base, the hairs should be wider than at the ends. To make the makeup natural, you need to apply two pencils with shades close to the main color. A darker color is used on the widest part of the eyebrows.

Finish the work by combing the painted areas with a brush. In order for all the work to be done correctly, the following recommendations must be taken into account:

  1. To make the eyebrows look natural, it is not recommended to apply long, straight lines with a pencil.
  2. To lengthen any segment, the tool is selected according to the main color of the eyebrows.
  3. To get a brighter shade, the pencil is applied to wet skin.
  4. It is recommended to color the eyebrows after covering the face with powder or foundation.

How to make eyebrow coloring with special powder?

Not all women are aware of the existence of this cosmetic material. Using it, you can increase the volume of the eyebrow or make a disguise when the eyebrows are plucked very thinly or not. The powder is applied to gray eyebrows. It comes in the form of a cream with a dye inside. It can be natural, light or dark in color. It should be borne in mind that on the eyebrows the powder will look lighter than when you open the package. Apply it to the desired areas with a hard brush, which is included in the kit. It has a pointed angle, so you can draw thin lines and shade the eyebrows. The set also includes a pencil.

Apply powder with intermittent movements in the direction of eyebrow growth. Do not use this remedy for very dark or thick hairs above the eyes. Before starting work, you need to choose the desired shape of the eyebrows. Women with a round face should be given a slight rounding upwards at the ends. Girls with triangular features should do the same. They are combined with an oblong face shape, and with a square face they are raised higher.
