Aging Brows: What’s Happening and How to Keep Them Beautiful

Aging can change the look of our brows in unexpected ways. Hormone shifts in perimenopause and menopause often lead to thinning, lighter color, and sometimes even gray hairs. You may notice your brow tails disappearing or some hairs growing long and wiry while others barely grow at all. These changes are common as each hair has its own growth cycle and response to our body’s changing chemistry.

If tinting no longer works as well—especially on grays—there are other options! For easy daily color, a colored brow gel can work wonders and washes off at night. If you’re looking for a longer-lasting solution, micropigmentation can provide natural-looking fullness and shape. Our brows are a big part of how we express ourselves, and it’s completely natural to feel a bit self-conscious if they’re not behaving the way they used to. 

Micropigmentation is permanent makeup and can last 1–3 years, giving you the benefit of beautiful brows without the long-term commitment. And even with micropigmentation, some occasional shaping and cleaning will keep your brows looking their best.  With options like powder brows, we can tailor the look to your comfort level.
