Hi All!
I wasn't quite sure where to post this, but I figured it would belong here. I've gotten tired of putting mascara on and doing my eyebrows every day. My eyes are very dark brown, so I look a bit like an alien when my eyelashes aren't dark too. After three and a half years of plucking, I decided to embrace my natural eyebrow shape. However, my brows are pretty sparse and much lighter than my hair.
I've tried 2-step henna and indigo, but although it tints my eyebrows well, the colour goes out immediately when I put oil or any kind of lotion on. I've looked at a couple of different dyes and saw that Refectocil gets good reviews. But before I just go ahead and buy the dye and developer, I'd like some advice from people who use/have used Refectocil.
How long should I leave the dye on?
I know some people say 5 minutes while others recommend 15.
How long does it generally last?
Can I put castor oil on my eyebrows and eyelashes, or will it cause the dye to fade a lot?
Will it damage my hair?
(as I'm in the process of growing out my eyebrows, I don't want anything that can stunt growth)
Any advice is appreciated! :flower:
