When you are young, you probably have a full head of hair and lush thick eyebrows. As we get older, our eyebrows thin out, and there may be a number of reasons for that. You may have simply over tweezed them because you didn’t have adequate lighting. Or, they may have thinned out by themselves due to any medical issues, or simply from getting older.
The good news is that there are plenty of ways that you can use a number of versatile natural oils and other home ingredients to grow your eyebrows back to their original shape and fullness, and maybe, even more. Many oils that are applied regularly are able to work wonders when it comes to encouraging your hair to regrow without any harsh side effects. There are also a few extra products you may want to try as well, and here is our top-list.
1. Fenugreek seeds
Fenugreek seeds provide a natural speedy help when it comes to re-growing healthy eyebrows. They contain lecithin and nicotinic acid, both proteins that increase the growth of hair. You have to first soak a teaspoon of the seeds in water for around 5 hours (set it up after your dinner time, for example). Once they have been soaked you have to grind them into a paste that is nice and thick. You can add some almond or coconut oil to the paste if you like. Put the mixture on the eyebrow area at night before you go to sleep. Let the mixture stay on the eyebrow area overnight. In the morning wash off the paste with warm water. You can repeat this process a couple of times a week for around 2 months.
2. Coconut oil
Not only can coconut oil help to thicken your eyebrows, you may find that after applying it, your eyebrows become darker in color. Use your fingertips to apply some oil (that has been slightly warmed up previously) to your eyebrows. Rub it gently to get the circulation in your eyebrows going. This will amplify the effect. Keep the oil on overnight and in the morning rinse it off with tepid water. Continue over time, every now and again, and your eyebrows will reach the desired thickness.

3. Eggs
Egg yolks are another product that contain a protein that mimics keratin which is a primary ingredient that is used in hair growth products. Use the egg yolk along with the egg white and mix it together until it is nice and thick. Apply it to the eyebrows and let it set for around 30 minutes. Make sure you rinse it off completely with cold water. You can increase the rate of hair growth by applying this mixture to your eyebrows a few times a week.
4. Olive oil and honey
Olive oil can be applied in much the same way as the coconut oil only you can add a couple of drops of honey with it. Honey is a natural anti-inflammatory that will keep the skin under your eyebrows from breaking out.
5. Almond oil
Because it is brimming with vitamin E, potassium, and magnesium, almond oil will prepare the area around the eyebrows by making it soft and supple. Apply the almond oil extract along with some linseed oil. It only has to stay on the eyebrows for a couple of minutes each evening before bed time to see new growth in a short period of time.

6. Aloe Vera
It’s always good to have an aloe vera plant in your home as it is a quick way to treat burns. Even though the substance that comes from the plant looks thick it is not sticky and you can apply it on your eyebrows a couple of times each day. The plant has the same compound in it that is just like keratin making it effective in getting eyebrows to grow back thick and healthy.
7. Castor oil
Long known as an effective tonic taken internally to treat a number of health issues, castor oil has been proven to be one of the best ways to re-grow your eyebrows when applied topically. It encourages the hair to grow because it feeds the hair follicles the vitamins, nutrients, and protein they require. Once you soak a cotton ball with some castor oil rub it onto your eyebrows. Massage the oil gently for a couple of minutes and leave it in place for at least 30 minutes or even overnight. Rinse it off with mild water and a cleanser. You can do this every day for a couple of weeks and you should begin to see a difference.

8. Lemon
The vitamins in lemons – vitamin C, vitamin B, and folic acid – make this one of the quickest ways to grow the hair in your eyebrows. If you have sensitive skin you may want to try this with caution as your skin is subtle and the lemon juice may appear to be too strong for your skin. Let the juice sit on your eyebrows for 20 minutes at a time each night. You will also need to stay out of the sun when using lemon juice as it could lighten your eyebrow hair and they may no longer match the color of the hair on your head.
9. Milk
Sometimes eyebrows may thin out if you are deficient in essential fatty acids and protein. Milk has whey and casein as the two main proteins it consists of. These proteins have been found to get the hair growth started and encourage it to increase additional healthy hair. Put some whole milk on a cotton ball and apply it to your eyebrows. Let it sit for 15 minutes then rinse it off with warm water. Keep applying milk on a regular basis until you notice that your eyebrows have gotten thicker and fuller.

10. Petroleum jelly
The one thing that Vaseline petroleum jelly does to encourage full thick eyebrows is it keeps the area moisturized. The process of applying it to the eyebrows after cleansing thoroughly first helps to speed up the growth process.
