*Castor oil- Apply very few drops of castor oil on the eyebrows, and do a gentle massage, then leave it for a night
,wash it off in the next day morning
(If you are not having any sinusitis problems, you can do this regularly)
*Avoid frequent eyebrows hair plucking, since it can damage new hair follicles

HELLO tuhina
we heard you dont worry !
It's very common to have thinner eyebrow hair than you’d like, especially based on genetics—but that doesn’t mean nothing can be done! Hair follicles in your brows can wake up and start growing thicker hair again, provided they’re healthy. To support this, start by nourishing your skin and follicles: gently massage a nutrient-rich oil like castor or coconut oil into your brows each night, as both help moisturize and potentially stimulate growth . Pair this with a balanced diet high in protein, iron, biotin (found in eggs, bananas, lentils), zinc, and vitamin E—essential building blocks for hair . If you’d like faster results, consider a clinically backed topical like bimatoprost (Latisse), shown to significantly improve eyebrow density in research — about 70% saw thickening in just 5 weeks
I have seen an article referred it and have practiced in our opd similar complaints as u have ! and we were very satisfied with the result of the patient too I will share u the treatment protocols which and all should be followed here - hope it will be helpful for u also !
Simple Treatment Plan-
1.Nightly oil therapy: Warm a dab of castor or coconut oil; gently massage into your eyebrows for a few minutes, leave it on overnight.
2.Nutrition boost: Focus on foods rich in protein, iron, biotin, zinc, and vitamin E—like eggs, nuts, leafy greens, and lentils.
3.Optional add-on: Apply bimatoprost (0.03%) once daily—under dermatologist guidance—for about 3–6 months; expect to begin seeing thicker growth within 6–8 weeks.
4.Be patient & gentle: Avoid over-plucking, resuming harsh grooming, or dyeing. Most people start to notice improvement in 2–3 months, with fuller brows in 6–8 months.
With consistent care hydration, gentle stimulation, and balanced nutrition many women see visible brow regrowth in a few months. For quicker and more dramatic change, bimatoprost offers strong results but should be used under professional supervision. Above all, be patient your brows are on their own timeline, and healthy regrowth simply takes time. 😊
thank you ,

No need of any medicines as u have problem with only eyebrow hair.. Only masage with mixture of 3 tsp coconut oil + 1 tsp castor oil will help. If possible daily at night and wash next day with warm water else atleast twice a week.
Donot use any kind of laser machines for hair removal and also avoid threading frequently.

Hello Tuhina ,
Thank you for your honest question. I understand how having thin or sparse eyebrows can affect your confidence, especially when scalp hair is otherwise healthy. But dont worry we are here to help you out 😊
**PROBABALE CAUSES**
Some people are born with genetically thin eyebrow hair due to:
1 Hereditary factors
2 Pitta dominance (leads to less body hair)
3 Rasa and Asthi Dhatu kshaya (weak nourishment of tissues responsible for hair)
The good news is with regular care and Ayurvedic support, eyebrow growth can improve over time but you have to be consistent
Ayurvedic Remedies to Boost Eyebrow Hair Growth
✅Daily Local Application (Eyebrow Massage):
Apply one of the following warm oils to your eyebrows once daily at night and massage till its absorption
1 Neelibhringadi oil
2 Castor oil + Coconut oil (50:50 mix) – excellent for hair root stimulation
Gently massage for 1–2 minutes with your ring finger to improve circulation.
✅ Internal Medication
1 Narasimha Rasayana – 1 tsp with milk in the morning (supports hair follicle nourishment)
2 Groo 1-0-1 after food
3 vidangaristham 30ml-0-30ml after food (to suppress any internal cause for sparse eyebrows)
4 Jeevamamrutham 1 tsp at bed time followed by warm water (for hair growth )
✅ Diet Tips:
✅ Include:
Ghee, soaked almonds, walnuts
Amla (gooseberry), dates, sesame seeds
Protein-rich food like moong dal, lentils, ragi
Coconut water and milk-based rasayana drinks
❌ Avoid:
Excess tea, coffee
Spicy and fried foods
Chemical-laden cosmetics on the brows
✅Lifestyle Suggestions:
• Do gentle eyebrow massage daily
• Avoid excessive threading or plucking
• Practice Pranayama
• Sleep well – poor sleep slows hair regrowth
Since your scalp hair is healthy, this may not be a systemic issue, but rather a local growth imbalance or inherited trait. With regular care, results can be seen gradually over 3–6 months. But you have to be consistent
Wish you a Good health and Good brows 😊
Warm regards,
Dr.Snehal Vidhate

HELLO TUNIHA,
Sparse eyebrows can feel frustrating, especially when the rest of your hair is healthy.
AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT FOR SPARSE EYEBROWS
1) ROOT CAUSE(dosha imbalance)
sparse hair, especially from birth, may be due to
-Vata pitta imbalance= vata dries out the follicles, and pitta (excess heat) may weakens hair roots
-Genetics= since you've had thin brows since birth, heredity play a role, but ayurveda still supports improvement with consistent care
EXTERNAL TREATMENT
1) CASTOR OIL WITH BRAMI AD BRINGARAJ
these herbs stimulate dormant follicles
-Mix 1 tsp castor oil + 1/2 tsp bhringaraj oil + a few drops of brahmi oil
-apply gently to eyebrows every night using a clean earbud or brush
-massage lightly for 2-3 minutes.
- leave overnight. wash in the morning
RESULT MAY TAKE 4-8 WEEKS OF REGULLAR USE.
2) ALOE VERAGEL(cooling for pitta)
If there's heat or sensitivity in the brow area, apply pure aloe vera gel(fresh) twice daily to soothe and condition follicles
3) FENUGREEK(METHI) PASTE MASK
Fenugreek is great for hair regrowth
-soak 1 tsp methi seeds overnight, grind into s paste
-apply on brows 2-3 times a week for 30 minutes then wash off.
INTERNALLY
1) NOURISHING DIET
-include A2 cow ghee, soaked almonds- 5 daily, sesame seeds, curry leaves, moringa, amla, dates
AVOID= very spicy, fried, or overly dry foods= increase vata/pitta imbalance
AMAL CHURNA= 1/2 tsp daily in morning with warm water= anti oxidant rich and very good for hair
BRINGARAJ CAPSULE= strengthen hair roots 1 tab twice daily
LIFESTYLE
-sleep 7-8 hours, avoid excessive screen time at night
-reduce stress= even mild stress can affect hair follicles
PRACTICES
-daily gentle eyebrow massage
-pranayam= nadi sodhana and bhrmari(10 min/day)
AVOID- overtaxing, over threading or aggressive eye brow treatment (laser treatment)
DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Since you have healthy hair on scalp, hair growth is not your problem.
To stimulate the hair follicles on eyebrows apply warm castor oil on eyebrows twice daily.
Include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
Banana are good to have daily.

For sparse eyebrows, Ayurveda offers holistic solutions that nurture hair growth by addressing underlying imbalances. Your prakriti, or natural constitution, plays an important role in determining hair quality, and ensuring harmony among the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—is crucial. Given your location in Odisha, the climate there often influences these doshas as well.
Begin with nutrition—the principle of Ahara is vital. Include ghee and oils in your diet as they are nourishing, helping the tissues, or dhatus, including the hair. Seeds and nuts, especially almond and sesame, are recommended as they provide essential fatty acids and vitamin E, supporting hair follicle health. Try drinking fresh amla juice, which balances Pitta, or mix a pinch of dry amla powder with honey daily.
Topically, apply castor oil, renowned for its follicle-stimulating properties. Every night, gently massage a small amount onto your eyebrows—this supports circulation and nourishment. Additionally, Brahmi and Bhringraj oils can be mixed in equal parts and applied similarly. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive plucking, which disrupt hair growth.
Stress management is also key, as high stress often aggravates Vata dosha, impeding healthy hair growth. Engage in calming practices like pranayama (breathing exercises) and meditation.
Ensure your sleeping patterns optimized; a regular sleep schedule enhances rejuvenation and hormone balance. Stay hydrated—the simple act of sipping warm water or herbal teas, like tulsi or chamomile, can help clear toxins and balance doshas.
While these Ayurvedic Suggests offer a natural way to stimulate eyebrow hair growth, be patient, as results can take time due to the natural pace of these processes. If the issue persists, consulting an Ayurvedic practitioner in person can provide deeper insights tailored specifically to your unique constitution and lifestyle.
