Accidentally shaved part of my eyebrows

So I had an accident when shaving to go out tonight.

I was using my electric razor, and needed to scratch my head, so I turned it off and was doing so, when I accidentally switched it back on and now there is a chunk out of my left eyebrow. Then when I needed to scratch again I thought I'd held the razor far enough away from my right eyebrow, but I hadn't and it looks like I've shaved a slit, and so I tried thinning it out with the razor but I think that's only made things worse.

What should I do? I'm thinking of just shaving the rest off, but would that look even more ridiculous, and how long will my missing hair take to grow back?

pics?

Don't shave the rest off! You're just going to have to grin and bear it unfortunately! I know that is easy for me to say but there's not much else you can do than hope it will grow back quickly (which it should do - my friend plucked basically her whole eyebrows off and they grew back fast!) :smile:

Really? Both eyebrows? :erm:

Say one of your housemates did it as a prank. I'm sure people will understand.

Mums eyeliner?

Hahahahahaha someone did this I went to school with, even the teachers took the piss. Don't do what he did and shave them both to make it even it just looks stupider :tongue:

What you do is you buy a cheap eyeliner in the colour of your eyebrow and pencil it back in. That way it won't be as obvious

fill them in with a cheap black/brown eyebrow pencil/eyeliner or even brown eyeshadow if you're feeling fancy

You have 1 week holiday off? It may grow back just enough in 1 week.

I'd say penciling in the missing bits or wearing a hat a lot are your best bets,or just leaving them as is and waiting for them to grow back,say it was a roommates prank or something similar..doesn't look that awful in the picture. But certainly don't go anywhere near them with a shaver for the next few weeks.

i shaved off half of my eyebrow by accident too, it happened last tuesday i’ve read about it and apparently they come back 1-4 weeks and mine have some little hairs so far which is good
