Lately I've noticed I have several white hairs gwowing in my eyebrow. I'm afraid if I pluck them out my brow will get thinner and thinner. I'm wondering if there is a good product on the market that will dye the white hairs without washing out the first couple of times I wash my face.

I've tried everything but nothing really works. I'm allergic to the PPT in most hair dyes so that limits my choices these days. I end up with eyebrow pencil most days, but I think there are eyebrow powders that might work better.
When I was having my hair dyed, I also had my eyebrows tinted. The make-up/waxing person did them for me. I went to an Aveda salon and she used a product from a tube that she mixed with something else, so some sort of a dye especially for brows. It worked great and lasted a long time but it was pretty expensive--something like $20 which I thought was outrageous.
If you find something, let us know!

well since I've used eyebrow pencils ever since I was a teenager (blonde eyebrows) I tend to favor those. I guess they could be dyed but seems like a hassle compared to just using the brow pencil....

I have a friend who had this problem - to add insult to injury she also had sparse hair growth there - - she has been using Latisse on her eyebrows - and she has noticed her new growth has come in dark - so she is planning on plucking the offending white hairs and using Latisse indefinitely - she is gratefully amazed at this new beauty breakthrough as she had almost resigned herself to a life time of dying her brows or using eyebrow pencil - she always says "you can never tell what's around the corner" -

they are really dye resistant. the only thing that I've found that works is the "just for men" dye for beards and moustaches. The texture of the brow hair is more like beard than head hair. This works better than even my professional colorist doing them.
i, too have been plucking them and my brows were already sparse... just started latisse on my brows 6 weeks ago so can't say yet if there's been benefit.

The beard and mustache dye might be worth trying. I also thought about trying one of those root touchup pens.

Maybe dipping a a very fine tip brush in some mascara to color the stray grays.
