How to make your eyebrows grow back?
Eyebrows are an important element of the face because they contribute to the harmony of the face. It’s very good to be able to draw your eyebrows perfectly, but it is way much better to have beautiful, natural thick eyebrows.
In this article, I will share with you my experience with my eyebrows. Believe me or not, I used to be that girl with thin/non-existent eyebrows, and I had to draw them every morning simply with a pencil. Back then, the eyebrows tutorials on YouTube were not as successful as today. We didn’t have all these makeup gurus showing us how to draw our eyebrows perfectly.
How did I end up with no eyebrows?
I used to trim my eyebrows with a razor, which was such a bad idea. In the beginning, my eyebrows were still decent, but after a few months, they became… a joke. Here is a picture:
I think it was in 2011. At this period, I thought I would never have natural thick eyebrows in my life again. I wasn’t into tattooed eyebrows, so I had to draw my eyebrows every morning. The issue when you have “pencilled-on eyebrows,” everything becomes your enemy: waking up late, heavy rain, swimming pools, beaches, sleeping at someone’s place, etc. I know that some of you can relate. It was hell!
One day, I was so fed up of drawing my eyebrows every single morning, so I made some researches on YouTube, and I found few girls talking about castor oil. They explained how castor oil helped them with their hairs, eyebrows, lashes, and even nails. I decided to give it a try, and I had no regrets! I applied this oil twice a day for 3 months, and I got very thick eyebrows. I looked like one grizzly bear after 1.5 months, but I wanted to be sure to have enough eyebrows before going to the beautician. I don’t really have pictures of my eyebrows after the 3 months challenge, but I found a picture where you can see that I got natural thick eyebrows:
Since that challenge, I never put any pencil on my eyebrows because I don’t need it. My eyebrows are now thick and dark enough. I only go to the beautician every 2-3 weeks to trim my eyebrows with the threading method.
Make your eyebrows grow with castor oil
Materials
As materials, you will simply need a mascara brush (from an old mascara, but don’t forget to clean it before use) or a cotton bud and the castor oil.
Application
Quickly dip your mascara brush in the oil and apply it on your eyebrows before sleeping. I used to apply it every morning as well, just before brushing my teeth and washing my face. You are not forced to apply it every morning too, but that’s what I used to do. I was desperate guys; lol.
Where to buy castor oil and where to find it?
I personally used the castor oil from the brand HT26. You can normally find it in every hair and cosmetics store. Castor oil is also sold in every pharmacy. I’ll recommend you opt for a 100% natural castor oil. I hope this will help you the way it helped me.

First off the title of the blog post caught my eye instantly. Due to genes my eyebrows have always been barely there, so I need all the help that I can get. I have heard of putting castor oil on them, but I never thought to use an old mascara brush! Thank you so much for that tip! I will try this tonight.
Castor oil is so great! As you could see in the first picture, I had no eyebrows anymore. I applied castor oil for 3 months without trimming them. Now everytime I go to the beautician, she always thinks that I put a bit of pencil on my eyebrows because they are thick and full. I hope you’ll experience a great growth too.
Never thought about using castor oil on your eyebrows but it does make sense. I need to tell some people about this. I know several people with this issue.
Yes it helps me have natural thick eyebrows. No need to draw or prepare my eyebrows anymore. I just “brush” them a bit in the morning. That’s it.
Castor oil will also help with your lashes too. If you haven’t tried already, add some vitamin e oil. It helps.
Yes don’t worry, I already know that. It also works for nails. You put a little bit onto your nail and massage it. You will see the difference in 1 week. Castor oil is my go-to oil!.
Yo that’s dope! I was told you can use castor oil for thinning hair as well ~
I may have to try this challenge on my beau as he starts his locks he’s thinning where his fitted cap sits
Castor oil is great for a lot of things: hair, eyebrows, lashes, nails… Castor oil is my go-to oil. I can’t even count how many bottle of castor oil I bought since I started my hair journey.
I love castor oil, specifically the Jamaican black castor oil. My sister still shaves her eyebrows off completely and draws them on everyday, it has to be time consuming. Your brows look great!
Hey Keisha! Thank you for my brows 🙂 I’m happy I found out about castor oil years ago because drawing my eyebrows every day or even using pencil on my eyebrows are things that I don’t have to do anymore! I’m rocking my naturel brows every day since I did this 3 months challenge.
I have extremely thick eyebrows and have to keep them tame. I have several family members that could used these tips. Unfortunately all of us didn’t get the hairy ghene like me.
