Massage your brows to boost blood flow and hair growth. You can also speed up hair growth by applying a hair growth product with a cotton swab or by rubbing a small amount of castor oil onto sparse areas. Eat food rich in protein and Vitamin B to encourage faster hair growth.

Color and shape your over-plucked eyebrows until the new hair growth shows. Fill in the entire eyebrow with an eyebrow pencil. Be sure the pencil matches your eyebrow color exactly. Replicate hair follicles with pencil-drawn marks to fix any bald or thin areas. Use a stencil, if desired, and then feather out the color with an eyebrow brush or clean mascara wand.
