Eyebrow Coloring Tutorial: Bleaching Method

Hello Generation of Cosplayers 


Today's I'm bringing you a topic that enrages me to my very core: coloring eyebrows for cosplay. I'm of the opinion that coloring your eyebrows to match your wig makes your cosplay look a little better. Of course, it is not necessary to do this, but I like taking that extra step to make my cosplay look a bit more complete. Buuuut, I have very dark and thick eyebrows. Coloring them is insanely difficult and it makes me want to punch someone in the face  something Dx For all of you who might have a hard time doing this too, here's a tutorial for one of the methods of coloring your eyebrows (and what I use as a base for all the other coloring methods I will be posting about). Enjoy ^_^ or you know, rage and go into a fit of hysterical madness because coloring eyebrows just sucks.

This method involves bleaching your eyebrows with Cream Bleach. This sounds scary, but it helps lighten very dark eyebrows. I do this occasionally when I feel like doing it. Don't worry, the effects of lighting the hairs goes away in a couple of weeks (so your eyebrows won't stay super light forever).



Products Needed
  • Cream Bleach for facial hair (any brand will do)
  • Water/Cloth to wipe the bleach at the end



Tutorial

1. Start by following the instructions on the box of cream bleach you purchased. The only thing you should be doing is mixing some of the cream with the accelerator and applying the paste onto your eyebrows. 



2. Keep the mixture on for about 10 minutes. If you think your eyebrows need to be lighter, remove the mixture, reapply, and leave it on for another 10 minutes. I usually only do this process one to lighten my eyebrows just a tiny bit. 

3. After the 10 minutes, wash of or clean off the mixture. You should be left with a lighter color.



Now you have a better base to work with with any other eyebrow coloring method (which I will have tutorials for soon). If you have never given this a try, go ahead! It is not as scary as it seems. Just be careful not to leave it on for too long xD
