Eyebrows and Lashes

[Dio Brando]

Is there nothing that will result in even semi-permanent eyebrow or eyelash gains.

-Castor Oil(Barely or doesn’t even work)

-Minox(Most reports gains are lost pretty fast after ending)

-Dye(Same problem doesn’t last too long max 3 months)

Not bothered to have to keep coming back to these, is there truly nothing that will even kinda permanently improve colour,eyebrows or eyelashes.

There’s no magic serum that rewrites your follicle genetics, bro. Castor oil is just a cheap emollient, minox and bimatoprost only work while you’re on them, then the hairs cycle back. The reason you see “minox shed” is because it accelerates the growth cycle – stop using it and those vellus hairs fall out.

If you want something that lasts, you’re looking at cosmetic procedures: microblading/microshading (basically a semi‑permanent tattoo) can fill in brows for 1–2 years if done well; brow/eyelash tint and lifts last a few weeks; and a proper eyebrow transplant (FUE from your scalp) is the closest thing to permanent but it’s surgery. There’s no topical that will permanently change the colour or density of your eyebrows or lashes, because those hairs are terminal and cycle every few months. Good diet (iron, zinc, biotin), avoiding over‑plucking and using a tinted brow gel will do more than oiling them and praying for a miracle.

Knew the first part just didn’t wanna accept it that I’m gonna have to oral minox for a while.
Don’t know what I was thinking low-key but fuck man.

oral minox isn't some magic bullet either. it's literally a vasodilator for hypertension, you end up messing with your heart and kidneys for a few vellus hairs. most "hair youtubers" only use 2.5mg under doctor supervision and still get edema, tachycardia and shedding once they stop. if your brows really bug you, microblading or a small fue transplant is low risk and permanent. otherwise just use a brow pencil/gel and focus on gym/diet; no pill will rewrite your follicle genetics.

Under 18 so can’t yet but will definitely look into more for when I’m old enough. Lashes and brows shape is good just feel like density and colour holds me back quite a bit.
