Do You Dye Your Brows? - Page 4

I don't dye my brows, I use a tinted brow mascara.

Unless they've had a formula/formulation overhaul, I'd be very careful with the Just For Men. Several years ago, DH used the JFM and ended up with chemical burns in his brows and mustache area. They were painful, weepy, and unsightly as they healed. He never used it again.

I use the ELF Brow wax and powder kit. I've been using it for years and wouldn't be without it. It is so natural looking and I like the brush that comes with the kit.

ITA, this is all I use too, but hard to find it now, ELF discontinued it, I just snagged one on ebay for a great price, I use dark.

@Trinity11 @Sunshine Kate the JUST FOR MEN lawsuit only involves the all over hair product not the mustache one I use on brows. The all over head one has different ingredients and stays on the head much longer. The one I've used for years is only on brows for 5 minutes. You can always do a patch test on your inner arm if concerned about any reactions.
It included ALL of the products including the Mustache product @Shanus . Do you need the link? They just took down an entire thread yesterday because of a link.

edited to add it caused severe facial burns.😳
The ingredient that is mentioned in the lawsuit is in all of their products. Thanks for posting accurate info!

Thank you @paixmcdao . Even though Shanus had no issues I think it is something that posters should know before making a suggestion to purchase it based on her numerous posts about being a "makeup artist" and "esthetician."

@Trinity11 I wanted to add my "Thanks" along with @paixmcdao. I also needed that reminder about doing patch tests even when using a product that one has used multiple times for an extended period of time.

It annoys me when people post their experience with a product or even that a class action suit has been filed and others brush it off simply because it hasn't occurred to them. As for those credentials...well I tend to take them with a grain of salt.

@JeanLouiseFinch thank you for adding the experience you personally observed with JFM.

I let my hairdresser to it for years back in the late '80s and early 90's to tone my brows down for my heavy highlighted blond I wore for so long. She did not mind doing it but knew I could do it at home myself with the same products. Loreal Light Ash blond and 40 volume developer. I stopped dying them after many years of doing it at home when I let my hair go back to a dark blond/light brunette. It is so easy to do at home, just need to keep your head tilted back so you do not drip into your eyes.

This is what I use. It covers the gray brow hairs. I use Espresso.

This my go to as well. I use either taupe or cool blonde, depending on how heavy my highlights or lowlights are, but hey're very close to one another.

I'm a blonde and always have been. Unfortunately I plucked myself until they never grew back which were blonde to begin with.

So I just draw them in.

I was at my hair salon the other day. Their is a makeup artist on site several times a week. She looked at me and liked my eyelashes (fales demi pixies) but came back with this plastic thing where you push up on your eyebrow and stencil it in. I guesss she didn't like my brow placement. lol.

2 other ladies were there and said I thought I looked very natural and nice for daytime. I'm going to run if I see her again.

I've tried a professional makeup in a department store only once and hated the outcome. never again.

I used to color them with the Just for MEn Mustache Dye .... but when I started to let my hair go gray - I stopped.

My eyeglass frame covers my eyebrows .... no need to color them.

@ALRATIBA

My bangs mostly-ish cover my brows but I color them anyway to match my hair color, Espresso. My husband and I are not ready for me to let go of the hair color!
