Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• cream facial hair bleach

1. Read all of the instructions and warnings for the cream bleach that you buy. The instructions will tell you to perform an allergy test. Do that 24 hours before you plan to dye your eyebrows. Don't skip this step, you don't want to have a severe reaction on your face, especially so close to your eyes.

2. Wash your face with soap and cold water or a mild cleanser and then pat dry. Do not scrub your face before hand, and make sure that the room isn't steamy at all. Hot water or steam will cause the pores on your face to open, and make irritation much more likely.

3. Mix the bleach according to package directions and apply to each eyebrow, covering the hair completely. Be very careful to keep it out of your eyes. If you do get some bleach in your eyes, flush them immediately with lots of cold water.

4. Wait for the bleach to work. It's usually about 10 minutes, but follow the directions.

5. Remove the bleach and rinse lightly with cold water and pat dry. Give yourself a day to get used to it because it can make a huge difference.
