As one of St Lucia’s top-rated lash and eyebrow boutiques, we often get asked whether your brows can, in fact, grow back naturally. The short answer is yes! However, you may have to be a little patient to see the results you are hoping for. The good news is, we specialise in natural brow restoration and have helped hundreds of women reclaim their eyebrows naturally!
Let’s face it, we’ve all been there: One second you’re plucking a couple of teeny, tiny brow hairs, and the next, half of your eyebrow is gone. So, how do you best go about fixing it and growing back your brows? That’s exactly what we’re here to talk about today.
Why Do Eyebrows Stop Growing Back?
Eyebrow loss can be the result of many things. While specific hair disorders and forms of grooming and plucking are obvious in their ability to halt growth, what’s not so apparent is how environmental and lifestyle habits can also play a role. Some of the reasons you may have difficulty growing back your brows include:
- Stress
- Hormone changes
- Thyroid issues
- Alopecia
- Lifestyle habits
- Environmental pollution
- Trichotillomania
- Frequent grooming
- And the most common one of all – simply overplucking
How Long Does it Typically Take For Eyebrows To Grow Back?
As a general rule of thumb, it takes anywhere from four to eight weeks post-removal to notice any new hairs, though the actual brow growth cycle typically takes three to four months. It really depends on the individual and the cause of brow hair loss.
5 Ways To Speed Up Eyebrow Growth
While it may take some time and patience to see a significant result, there are a few things we can do to encourage new hair growth and speed up the process a little.
1. Throw Out Your Magnifying Mirror
One of the first questions I often ask new clients with sparse brows is whether or not they own a magnifying mirror. To those who reply yes, I say “Toss it!”. It’s the best way to stop overplucking obsessively and lose perspective. You have to let the hair follicles breathe a little, and you’ll see that little by little, hair will start to re-grow naturally.
2. Keep Makeup and Even Moisturiser Away From Your Brows
Avoid any cosmetics on and around your brows. Creams, lotions, serums — anything unnatural you usually put on your face. It blocks brow hair growth and can even make your hair shed.
3. Consider Aftercare Products That Encourage Brow Hair To Grow Back
At Designer Brow Boutique, we have a range of products available that may assist the natural regrowth of your eyebrows. These products are specifically formulated and are packed with vitamins, peptides, and other strengthening ingredients that create an ideal environment for growth. We will happily consult you on what products are best suitable for your unique needs.

4. Castor Oil Can Help Hair To Grow Back
Castor oil has been making a comeback in recent years. Just like a good hair conditioner, it keeps your hairs soft so they don’t break. Full brows are trendy now, so it’s better to be overgrown than over-tweezed. Once your brows have grown back, you’ll never go back to the old habits of overplucking.
