If you pluck your eyebrows do grow more hair?

Plucking your eyebrows can give the appearance of thicker eyebrows in the short term by removing stray and unruly hairs, but it does not actually cause more hair to grow. Hair growth is determined by genetics, hormones, and your overall health, not by plucking.

When you pluck an eyebrow hair, you are removing the visible portion of the hair shaft, which is made up of dead cells. The hair follicle, which is the living part of the hair that produces new growth, remains intact under the skin. This means that the hair will eventually grow back.

In some cases, plucking eyebrows may cause the hair follicles to become damaged or weakened, resulting in thinner or slower-growing eyebrows. This is why it is important to only pluck stray hairs and to avoid over-plucking.

If you are concerned about the thickness or appearance of your eyebrows, there are a number of other methods you can try, such as using eyebrow pencils or powders, applying castor oil or other nourishing oils to encourage growth, or undergoing cosmetic procedures like microblading or eyebrow transplantation.
