Eyebrows

[Deaner]

When you guys tug your eyebrows, do any hairs come out? Sometimes when I give mine a light tug, 6 or 7 will fall out. Just wondering if this is at all normal, or maybe an indication of some underlying medical condition.

Thanks in advance.

Just tried yanking at my eyebrows - all the way along both - and had five hairs come out.

I thought there was something up a few months ago. Tugged my eyebrow and few came out.

Anyway I forgot about it, checked them out yesterday and they look just the same as ever.

Eyebrow hair only grows to a certain length and then eject, so this could be why you always get a few when you tug em!

Guys, eyebrow hairs are short---> short anagen phase. It is completely normal to shed a few there with each tug. In elder people the eyebrow anagen phase gets longer hence the famous "owl look".

I just went though and tugged on all parts of my eybrows.. got zero hairs..

I wish my scalp had that power!

Shedding hairs is in no way a weakness. The problem lies in the quality of the hair that emerges afterwards.
