HELP! I practically have no eye brows!!

So it's been a couple of months since I got my brows tamed (before that, I didn't do anything to them since late last year!).

Anyway, I got them threaded this evening, and after I was done and she passed me the mirror I wanted to cry. All I kept saying was OMG, OMG...

My brows are so thin! I would like to say just __________ thin! Not only that my shape is completely different. I sorta had an arch, and now it's gone.

I am so irritated, but more shocked and sad. I know I probably need to grow them out for at least a year (or maybe half a year).

Anyway, does anyone have any tips or tricks to make them look fuller??

I'd leave them alone for now so your hairs can grow back (Not sure if this varies from person to person but my eyebrow hairs grow fast). For now, like Andrew said, fill them in. Not much you can do but just let them grow back. I'm sorry for what happened to you. :(

I've never had my brows professionally by anyone so I could can't even imagin. Though I think I might have slapped her with the mirror...no not really. I have a couple of videos up on how I fill in my thin and almost non exsistant brows. I hope this helps you on the road to your regrowth and recovery.

Fill them in and let them grow! Maybe get bangs for when they start to look crazy during the growing process. Im always growing out my eyebrows and trying new eyebrow shapes,

No idea what you can do about your brows besides try to fill them in and taking @Taty's advice and pulling your fringe over them. I'd have gone berserk if someone did that to me. Another reason why I'd never trust anyone with my brows.

So sorry this happened to you, Jane. *HUG*

Unfortunately you'll have to make due with filling them in with a brow pencil and letting them grow out. That has happened to me before and you just have to be patient. I'm so sorry that happened to you though Jane.

Thanks everyone. I've been filling them in, and making them more defined with a pencil than I usually do. (using a shadow alone isn't cutting it.)

@Taty's that's a great idea, I've been wanting bangs, and I guess now would be a good time to get them.

LOL I just don't like that "extra" space between my brows and lashes... it doesn't look normal to me. LOL And, I swear it takes me longer to fill them in now than it used to when my eyebrows were a little bit thicker.

I fill mine in with pencil an auburn and a tawny blonde, to get them a more natural colour to me. and then I use a matte powder; you can also use a matte eyeshadow, and an angled brow brush, don't sweat it:
just wait it out, the lesson you can take from your experience is to never trust anyone else with your brows, watch trimming, and shaping videos, read up on techniques and learn to tame them yourself.
good luck!
