They say that there is no such woman who would not want to change something in herself. Blondes paint in brunettes, brunettes lighten tar curls, girls with smooth hair buy curlers, and those on whose heads elastic springs provocatively bristle in all directions will arm themselves with irons to straighten curls ... The same story with eyebrows. Someone diligently paints them in a dark color, while someone needs to lighten two neat arcs above the eyes to complete the image. Fortunately, there are plenty of methods for this. But which one do you prefer?
Women come to the idea of lightening in different ways:
Light eyebrows give the faces of some girls a unique charm.
Light eyebrows are fashionable, stylish, and besides, they serve as a good way to soften too rough facial features. True, they can also expose their mistress in an absurd light if the girl is dark-skinned by nature, loves a tan, or is fond of bright makeup with dark shadows and expressive arrows, so you have to think carefully before making such significant changes to your image.
Has the lighting decision been finalized? Then take the second step: choose between a beauty salon and your own bathroom.
The first option is good with the presence of an experienced master who will help you find the best eyebrow tone for you, and professional lightening products that cause minimal damage to the hairs.
The second captivates with cheapness and convenience: for the sake of it, you don’t need to call anywhere, make an appointment and rush to a session at an appointed time, which may not be quite convenient for you. In addition, in this case, you can be sure that the negligent master did not leave the instruments unsterilized after the previous client and did not try to save money by slipping you a cheaper paint instead of the promised one.
If you have made a choice in favor of the salon, close the article and take up the phone. If you prefer home lighting, read on: we will try to do everything so that the result does not disappoint you in any way.
Bleaching
To completely deprive the hairs of color, you need to remove the melanin pigment from them. Two remedies will help you cope with this task: hydrogen peroxide and whitening cream.
It is undesirable to use peroxide in its pure form, it has a bad effect on hair.
Discoloration with hydrogen peroxide is the easiest and most inexpensive way, you just have to find the right vial labeled "3%" in the pharmacy and take some precautions.
Prepare:
Naturally, you will need a mirror and good lighting in the room.
The procedure for lightening the eyebrows is as follows.
Fair-haired or light brown eyebrows will lighten by 1-2 tones after the first procedure, but dark-haired beauties and those who want to milk the complete discoloration of the hairs will have to repeat it after 3-4 days. But not before: you can provoke itching, burning or dry skin.
If peroxide gets into your eyes during the procedure, immediately rinse them with water.
However, peroxide is an unreliable thing. If you are not experienced in lightening, it may not cope with too dark hairs, burn them or decorate them with uneven spots. Fortunately, today many cosmetic companies offer their clients a special whitening cream to lighten eyebrows, dark "antennae" above the lip and unwanted hair on the body. Its advantage is:
Use a whitening cream according to the instructions on the package, which may differ significantly from manufacturer to manufacturer. Read carefully and follow the directions exactly.
Using peroxide or a bleaching cream, you can bleach your eyebrows, make blue-black hairs less bright and conspicuous, and remove the effects of unsuccessful coloring. But you should not abuse these funds, otherwise one not the most beautiful day you risk competing with Gioconda with her clean forehead without a single hair.
To keep your eyebrows from thinning, make it a rule twice a week to make masks and warm vegetable oil, egg yolks or dairy products.

How to fix the consequences of unsuccessful staining
Not everyone wants to brighten the upper part of the face. Many, inspired by the example of Cara Delevingne, Anne Hathaway and other black-browed stars, on the contrary, diligently darken the arcs that spread over the eyes and ... overdo it. How to correct the situation if instead of neat dark eyebrows you got two sharp, as if charcoal-painted stripes on your forehead? Lightening with peroxide or cream something that has recently been exposed to paint is unreasonable, the hairs may not withstand a double blow and begin to fall out. What to do?
Folk remedies
Lightening with oil.
It cannot be said that the hairs will begin to brighten before our eyes, but after 2-3 days the situation will noticeably improve.
Lightening with lemon juice.
You can repeat the procedure no more than every other day, and with sensitive skin even less often - 1 time in 2-3 days. Hair will become lighter within 2 weeks.
Lightening with chamomile.
A concentrated decoction of chamomile has long been used to lighten hair.
Additionally, twice a week, treat your eyebrows with a coffee grounds scrub mixed with any cosmetic oil in a 1: 1 ratio and diluted 1/3 tsp. lemon juice.
Salon procedures
If the cause of excessive darkening of the eyebrows was an unsuccessful tattoo, relying on lemon juice and chamomile is pointless. It would be wiser to turn to professionals who will offer you one of the following procedures:
Each of the listed procedures has its strengths and weaknesses, so you will need to make the final decision together with the master. And do not forget to make sure that he has the appropriate diploma, and the salon has a certificate for the procedure you have planned!
Some girls advise the victims of an unsuccessful tattoo to buy a pack of disposable syringes at the pharmacy and inject flesh-colored pigment under their skin, and if you can’t get one, then regular milk. Under no circumstances should this be done! The problems that such a barbaric treatment of one's own skin can lead to will not be compared with too thickly colored eyebrows.
