Waxing Makes Hair Grown In Thinner - StyleLIES

Camilla BelleWe all have that girlfriend who over-waxes to the point we think her eyebrows will never grow back. Actually, will they ever grow back?

Waxing rips hairs out of the follicles. This ripping can cause damage to the follicles over time which may or may not result in finer hair growing in or even not at all. But we're talking decades. Twenty, thirty years even.
If this concerns you because you have noticed that your brows (or other regions) are growing in sparsely, don't despair. As long as you haven't been doing the wax dance for decades, give it a rest. They'll fill back in. And when they do, your best prevention method is to take note from Camille Belle (pictured) and leave those puppies as thick and natural as possible.

And if you have been waxing for a lengthy time, well, you might be out of luck. Get a pencil and start filling in!
