dying eyebrows

[mollymoo]

Hi I am a redhead and i want to dye my blonde eyebrows. I have found an eyebrow and lash tint kit in boots but it comes in black or dark brown. I have tried the dark brown and it just looks so wrong, as my hair is red red rather then orange ginger. Does anyone know of somewhere else i might be able to get a light brown or other color kit that would work better. Thanks

hello mollymoo, sounds like a job for the pro's .. must be some good places in your local area.

yeah but i would prefer to do it myself, as i travel a lot on locations and so do not have time to go to the saem place or always have free time. but thanks anyway...

I have the same dilemma, my blonde eyebrows just look odd with my red hair so will be interested to see any answers, I did see a red eyebrow powder http://www.missbollywood.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=141&products_id=1165&osCsid=cbbd864596b5a8522a51f7c8ee52f5e6 but haven't tried it, it's supposed to be waterproof, it's the only red eyebrow pencil type thing I've seen, but obviously a tint would be better.

I would give it a go but you literally need to put it on and straight off if you leave it like hair dye it gets darker the longer its on so dont go by the colour it says. I used to do a lot of tinting myself and eyebrows can be tricky to gert right so it might be worth the �5-10 first time around and use a mirror to watch what they do. I used to put it on then straight off and keep builiding on the colour doing the same thing till my client was happy.  Dont paint it straight on, lift the hairs and dab it on with a cotton bud, lift the hairs with an orange wood stick or another cotton bud stem, something thin anyway, as soon as you have done one eyebrow take it straight off with damp cotton wool, try not to spend to lon doing oine brwo or it will be too dark for you if you have light hairs. Good luck....

Hi Mollymoo, I suffer exactly the same problem. The brown is a far too greyish brown to go with our red hair. I have found this product - RefectoCil No. 4 chestnut. Just google it. Hope you are successful.
