From Scalp to Brow: Eyebrow Transplants are Hair Transplants Too
From Scalp to Brow: Eyebrow Transplants are Hair Transplants Too
Eyebrow reconstruction as a hair transplant technique is based on the technology first reported by Krusis in Germany in 1914 and later by the Japanese in the 1930 and 40s. In 1943, Tamara reported that single-hair grafts should be used for the hair restoration as these would look the most natural. Nearly a half-century later, when the most advanced type of scalp hair transplantation consists of using naturally occurring follicular units containing 1-4 hairs, the most refined type of eyebrow transplant still consists of using individual hair follicles.
The advance in eyebrow hair restoration lies, therefore, not in the use of individual hairs – this has been known for a long time – but in the adoption of techniques used in scalp hair transplantation that enable the physician to carefully isolate these individual hair follicles from the donor scalp.
The specific technique is called stereo-microscopic dissection, and it enables the surgeon to generate a hair follicle that contains all the essential anatomic structures necessary for maximum survival and growth, but that is devoid of the excess tissue that makes traditional grafts too cumbersome for the nuanced restoration of the eyebrows.
A carefully dissected single-hair micro-graft, trimmed of excess epidermis, dermis and fat, has the flexibility to be inserted into the tiny opening made with a fine hypodermic needle and placed at an angle almost flush with the skin – two techniques that are essential for the most natural restoration. The tiny recipient sites allow the grafts to be placed very close together. However, when closely placed grafts are angled so acutely, the base of one follicle literally lies under the shaft of the next, so that any extra volume to the graft can leave an unnatural lumpiness on the brow. The slender, microscopically dissected grafts have no volume other than the functional follicle, so they are perfectly suited for this closely spaced, acutely angled graft placement.
The Hair Cycle
The normal hair cycle varies from months to years; depending upon the part of the body the hair is located. Each hair regenerative cycle has a growth phase called anagen and a resting phase called telogen. The anagen phase for scalp hair ranges from 3-6 years while the anagen phase of the eyebrow hair is significantly shorter. The rate of growth for scalp hairs ranges from .30-.41 mm per day (about a half inch per month), while the growth rate of the eyebrow hair is half of that.
When scalp hair is transplanted to the eyebrow, the longer hair cycle of the scalp hair makes it grow to a cosmetically unacceptable long length. This necessitates frequent trimming of the eyebrows that is not only a nuisance, but that produces a cut end that is less elegant than the finely pointed tip of an uncut hair.
Over time, the transplanted hair will assume some of the characteristics of the site that it was transplanted into and the length of the transplanted hair will begin to gradually decrease. It is not known if the transplanted follicles will eventually assume the full characteristics of the surrounding eyebrow hair, but work by Wang et al. suggests that influences of the recipient are more significant than was previously thought.
Indications for Eyebrow Hair Restoration and Reconstruction
A variety of conditions can result in a loss or alteration of the eyebrows. Probably the most common is self induced – caused by repeated plucking of the eyebrows for aesthetic reasons, or less often from a compulsive disorder called trichotillomania. Those who pluck hair as an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) should not be transplanted without addressing the OCD first, since transplanting the eyebrow will fail as the patient returns to old habits.
Other forms of physical trauma that may result in loss of eyebrows include car accidents, burn injuries, defects from surgical procedures, and radio- and chemotherapy. Burns or trauma may result in the formation of scar tissue that initially precludes hair transplantation. In these cases, reconstructive surgery may be necessary before the eyebrow hair transplant can be accomplished. Thickened scars may respond to injections of corticosteroids and, once thin, may readily support the growth of transplanted hair.
Women with eyebrows that they deem to be too thin occasionally have them tattooed, but this almost invariably looks unnatural. The situation worsens as the pigment is engulfed by macrophages and brought deeper into the dermis causing the black-brown color to take on a bluish hue. The pigment can be successfully removed with lasers, but then the once thin eyebrows become totally devoid of hair.
A common dermatologic condition that may cause the loss of the eyebrows (and eyelashes as well) is alopecia areata. This is a genetic, auto-immune condition that manifests with the sudden onset of discrete, round patches of hair loss with normal underlying skin. It can be treated with injections of cortisone, but tends to re-occur.
Systemic diseases may also cause the loss of one’s eyebrows and there are also congenital abnormalities that are associated with the absence of eyebrows and/or eyelashes.
In some patients, the disappearance of one’s eyebrows is a normal occurrence with age and genetic hair loss results from the progressive thinning (miniaturization) of the hair until it is barely noticeable.
For any eyebrow transplant procedure to be successful, one must be certain that the underlying condition that caused the hair loss in the first place has been corrected. Once the hair loss is stable, hair restoration may be contemplated.
The Design
Persons who seek eyebrow hair restoration (or any hair transplant, for that matter) generally have particular desires, goals and prejudices on what the ideal shape of their hair should be. Creating natural looking eyebrows can be a difficult task because of the differences between a patient’s prejudices and normal eyebrow design. Eyebrows are as different as faces, so “normal” is a relative term. If beauty is the focus for females, there are rules that can be applied to help define a beautiful eyebrow. Men, who are not satisfied with their eyebrow shape, often want their eyebrows to have a special character, such as the look of Albert Einstein. Some men think that bushy eyebrows are the most desirable as they represent male virility or genius. Women, on the other hand, want delicacy and more well defined shapes. These differences in the preferences of each sex must be understood and incorporated in the design of the restoration from the outset.
Beauty is not just determined by a specific angle or a precise number of grafts. The art of the restoration requires that the surgeon gets “inside the head” of the patient and understands what he or she wants to achieve. In contrast to balding men, who often cannot remember where their hair was when they were young and who are thus open to any design that will give them hair, the person seeking eyebrow restoration often has very specific ideas in mind. The doctor’s job is to moderate the patient’s perspective and make sure that it is reasonable. Mistakes are in full view and can leave a patient with a problem that may require years of plucking to correct.
Proper angulation is the most important aspect of any eyebrow transplant. The hair in the upper part of the central edge of the eyebrow usually points upward to the hairline, while the hair on the lateral aspects points horizontally, towards the ears. The hair in the upper part of the eyebrow should be pointed slightly downward and the lower portion slightly upward, so that they will converge in the middle, forming a slight ridge and resembling the pattern of a feather.
The eyebrows must be put in flat, or they will stick out pointing forward. The surgeon controls the direction and the distribution as the hair is transplanted into the eyebrow, and fine skills are required to densely pack single hairs into the small needle tracks that make for an undetectable wound.
The Technique
The outline of the eyebrow transplant should be carefully delineated using a fine surgical marker according to the design that the doctor and patient had agreed upon during the consultation. Markings should also be used to indicate the directional change of the hair as one moves medial to lateral. It is often helpful to make these markings above the brow (outside the area that will be transplanted) so that they are not lost as the sites are being made.
Once the markings are complete, the patient should be given a mirror to make sure that this is what they had discussed and that the design is satisfactory. At this point we find it helpful for the physician to leave the room (another staff member should still be present) to give the patient a few minutes to reflect on the design.
A small amount of anesthetic should first be injected in the supra-trochlear and supra-orbital notches to create a nerve block to numb the medial and lateral aspects of the brow. Local infiltration using a mixture of xylocaine or bupivicaine and epinephrine can further anesthetize the area and provide rigidity to the eyebrows. Tumescence enables the physician to keep the recipient sites more superficial and at a more acute angle and minimizes bleeding. Due to the small volume of fluid needed, a separate tumescent mixture is generally not necessary. The use of corticosteroids and other particulate solutions should be avoided when injecting around the eyes.
Recipient sites should be created using 20-22g needles (or equivalent instruments), depending upon the coarseness of the hair. If the patient’s scalp hair is very light and fine, 2-hair grafts can be used in the central part of the brow to create extra density, but these grafts should not be placed near the edges.
Recipient sites should be created holding the instrument as flat as possible to the skin surface, as there is always some elevation of the graft in the normal process of healing. In making the sites, the instrument should be gripped between the thumb and the first and second fingers and held nearly flush to the skin surface. The instrument should not be held like a pencil, as this will not allow the angle to be significantly acute.
The number of grafts needed for the eyebrow hair transplant can vary greatly from as few as 75 per brow to as many as 350. Men generally require significant more grafts than women. It is helpful to make the recipient sites first so that one can determine exactly how many hairs need to be harvested. It is important to remember that follicular units will yield 2-3 grafts on average, depending upon the patient’s donor density.
If the donor hair is obtained from a strip, then one should excise 1 cm2 of tissue for every 200 grafts required (since there are approximately 100 follicular units averaging 2.3 hairs each per cm2). If hair is obtained via follicular unit extraction, then the staff should dissect the grafts into individual hairs as they are removed from the scalp, so that the doctor can determine exactly how many are needed.
In women, the finer hair in the area over the ears should generally be harvested. In men with fine hair and coarse eyebrows, the area adjacent to the occipital protuberance is usually the coarsest hair on the scalp and may be the best match.
The grafts should be inserted using fine jeweler’s forceps under loop magnification. The hair must be literally stuffed, rather than inserted, into the sites, as the site is too small to accommodate both the graft and the forceps.
No dressing is required post op and the patient is instructed to sleep with his/her head elevated. The following morning, the patient should gently irrigate the transplanted area to remove any dried crusts. This should be done in the shower at least three times the day following surgery and twice daily for a week. After each shower, an antibiotic ointment should be applied to the brow to help soften any crusts and enable to them to be more easily removed with the next washing. There is often bruising after the surgery that may take a week or more to subside to normal. Bruising is usually most apparent in older patients with significant sun damage.
As the transplanted hairs grow they will require occasional trimming. Using a gel or wax will help them keep the hairs flat as the hair has a tendency be unruly, particularly when they first start to grow. As mentioned above, the hair growth will tend to slow down over time and the hair will begin to assume some of the characteristics of the surrounding hair due to influence of the recipient site.
Patients should understand that two or more sessions may be required to achieve a desired look. Sessions are best spaced a minimum of eight months apart so that the doctor may have the benefit of seeing the first session actually grow in before planning the second.
Challenges of Eyebrow Transplants
When eyebrows are transplanted using scalp hair, they invariably retain some of their donor area hair characteristics of shape, shaft thickness and growth rates. If a person has coarse hair and fine eyebrows, a transplant from the scalp may not be a good match, particularly for a woman who requires delicacy of the new transplanted eyebrow. It is possible to decrease the diameter of the hair shaft by trimming off part, or all of the bulb, but this risks producing an irregularly shaped hair.
Curly eyebrows from an African American kinky haired person with coarse hair may not produce the directional control that the patient needs in a transplant (as African hair has a strong character, particularly in the coarse haired person). As such, some people may not be good candidates for an eyebrow transplant. With newer placing techniques, it is now possible to place the hair so that the curve is oriented in the appropriate direction.
As part of the normal healing process, wounds tend to contract. As a consequence, the cylindrical defect created by the transplanted hair will tend to contract and orient itself more vertically. This will tend to lift the hair slightly away from the skin giving the brow a bushier, unruly appearance. Making the recipient sites at a very acute angle can partially compensate for this, but some elevation may still occur.
Conclusion
Eyebrow transplantation is a safe, out-patient procedure that can significantly enhance one’s appearance. It is particularly helpful for those individuals who have defective eyebrows caused by disease, accidents or that have been self-induced. However, eyebrow restoration is a nuanced procedure that demands technical skills and artistic knowledge beyond that required for the treatment of a balding scalp. For those physicians who have the aesthetic inclination and who are interested in taking time to develop the special skills necessary for this procedure, eyebrow restoration can produce a significant improvement in the appearance of select patients.

Hair Care for Thinning Hair: Separate Fact from Fiction
Smart Hair Care to Prevent Hair Loss
Changing some of your styling and grooming routines can go a long way toward improving the look and health of your hair and helping to prevent hair loss. When it comes to caring for thinning hair, as it often turns out, less is more.
“Every day my clients come to talk to me about their thinning hair and hair loss issues, and I find that they really have some major misconceptions on how they should be caring for their hair; once they know better, their situation ultimately improves,” says Shelly Beatty, owner and master stylist at Stylemakers Salon in Fort Worth, Texas. How does she know? She is a hair loss treatment specialist who has also suffered hair loss and thinning following thyroid surgery. In this article Beatty sets the record straight on many hair care myths.
MYTH: You have to use a lot of mousse to make thinning hair look thicker.
FACT: “Mousse is made up of primarily alcohol, which will coat each hair strand with its drying effects, and in fragile, thinning hair, that is just asking for breakage! It’s a commonplace product, but it’s not meant for those with thinning hair. The best solution is to work with your hairstylist to switch to a hairstyle that does not require so much volume. If the long-term goal is healthier hair, then you need to move away from styling products containing alcohol.”
MYTH: Regular drugstore hair care products are just fine for my thinning hair.
FACT: “Products made specifically for thinning hair, regardless of the reason for the thinning, will be formulated in a specialized way to exclude certain harsh and drying ingredients that can damage the hair. One component called sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is a common, cheap detergent ingredient in drugstore shampoo; it will strip fragile hair of its only support system — the hair’s own natural oils. SLS will degrade even a strong cuticle, or outer layer of the hair shaft, which thinning hair does not even have. Ditto for alcohol in hairstyling products from the drugstore. Look for salon brands, recommended by your stylist, that have product lines for thinning hair and are sulfate free and alcohol free.”
MYTH: If my shampoo is not sudsy, it’s not working.
FACT: “The suds come from the SLS, the harsh, drying detergent in the shampoo that moves the dirt away from the scalp and hair via the bubbles. There are many other, gentler ways to remove the dirt that do not require this harsh chemical and will still work just as well, as long as you are also not using stiff, sticky styling products.”
MYTH: Wearing a hair system is bad for what hair I have left and for my scalp.
FACT: “A hair system can be beneficial because it sits on top and allows hair and scalp to recover if the hair loss was the result of a trauma such as hormonal issues, surgery, medications, childbirth, over processing, and so forth. It also protects fragile areas from overexposure to the sun.”
MYTH: Brushing will damage my thinning hair or make me lose more hair.
FACT: “Brushing is great for you but only with a very soft, natural-bristle hairbrush. It will glide easily through the hair, distributing the hairs’ natural oils down the hair shaft while stimulating blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles. Beware of hard nylon bristle brushes with ball-tips, which can tangle and pull fragile hair, and never brush hair that is stiff or sticky from styling products (which you should not be using).”
MYTH: Thinning hair needs to grow to look healthier.
FACT: “You must get hair trimmed on a regular basis, every four to six weeks, because it’s more susceptible to breakage and split ends. A split end will continue splitting up the hair strand, further weakening it and adding to its frizzy look.”
MYTH: Conditioner and conditioning treatments will weigh down my hair and make it greasy.
FACT: “You simply have to choose the right type of hair conditioner. Ask your stylist about a reparative treatment, not a moisturizing or oily one. And if you’re not using shampoo with SLS, you’ll notice fewer problems with dryness and tangling. Definitely treat thinning hair to a deep conditioning reparative treatment once a week.”
MYTH: Heated tools work best on the highest setting.
FACT: “Not for people with thinning hair! The highest heat setting will fry and burn off your fragile hair strands. The high settings are for the coarsest hair types and the healthiest hair. You should be using these devices minimally and at the lowest setting.”
MYTH: I can achieve some volume by getting a perm.
FACT: “You may get some volume or curls, or your hair may break off from the harsh solution. Perms chemically open the outside layer of hair, which causes hair to swell — and snap midshaft because it’s weak already. Try Velcro rollers for volume and fullness without long-term damage, or, better yet, if that’s the hairstyle you’re set on, get a high-end wig!”
MYTH: Coloring is a no-no for thinning hair.
FACT: “Usually. But shine or gloss treatments that contain no peroxide actually coat and protect hair strands without entering and chemically changing the hair structure, so hair is not weakened by the process. Instead they seal down the hair shaft and add shine. But do not use bleach or permanent or semi permanent hair colors, because they do use penetrating chemicals and will weaken fragile hair.”
MYTH: Sunscreen is not necessary for hair.
FACT: “Sunscreen is very necessary for hair and the scalp, too, especially when hair is thinning and weak. The sun actually lightens hair because the ultraviolet A and B (UVA and UVB) rays penetrate the hair shaft, so you need to protect your hair from this damage. And don’t forget your scalp — because hair is thinner, not shielding it from the sun’s burning rays doesn’t help. Always spray on a sunscreen and keep hair loosely braided, in a bun or under a hat when outdoors or at the beach.”
MYTH: If I brush and style my shorter hair upward, it will have more volume.
FACT: “That’s the classic mistake that can really date a woman. If you brush it straight up, you can see just how thin it is, as the scalp now shows through. Instead, go with a flatter, shorter, choppy fringe cut that covers the scalp and looks fresh.”
MYTH: More styling product means more hold.
FACT: “You may get more hold, but you’ll get more breakage, too! Hair should never have that crispy feel to it. Less is more.”

Best Hair Extensions Types, From Clip on Hair Extensions to Bonded Hair Extensions
Best Hair Extensions Types, From Clip on Hair Extensions to Bonded Hair Extensions
Article by Theron Neels
The clip on hair extension is one of a growing number of hair extension types. Depending on a number of factors and benefits, not all of these methods would appeal to you.
When you go about selecting what type of application process you want, you will need to take into consideration how long you are going to wear the extensions, to what type of hair you have. To make that kind of decision it is important to get an idea of what goes into each method, and then settle on what would be the best hair extension for your situation.
The hair extension applications that you will most likely come across are clip on hair extensions, bonded hair extensions, fusion hair extensions and weave hair extensions.
The clip on type involves hair extensions that are attached to your hair using a special kind of clip. Clip-ons – or clip ins – are the quickest to apply to your hair, and also the easiest to remove, and therefore this type of hair extension could be your choice if you want your extensions in your hair only for short periods at a time.
An appealing aspect of clip ons is that there is much less chance of damage caused to your hair, compaired to other processes involving chemicals of various kinds.
If cared for properly, clip on hair extensions can last for a very long time. In fact, it is simply a case of treating these extensions as you would your own hair!
Weave hair extensions refer to the method where extensions are actually woven into your hair. This is usually done at a salon and involves using a needle to sew the extensions onto strands of your own hair. The tight weave needed to keep the extensions in place can make this process quite uncomfortable at times.
These woven extensions may need to be tightened from time to time to ensure they are still properly held in place.
With fusion hair extensions there are both cold and warm fusions. Fusion hair extensions have tips with a special type of chemical on them. Using the applicator gun on them causes these tips to fuse to your hair. This type of application is long lasting and usually needs to by reversed by a professional.
Bonded hair extensions make use of a special glue, and are usually attached to individual strands of your hair. As this is a chemical process, this type of bond requires a special remover to be applied at the time of removing the extensions.
With all these types of hair extensions, it is sensible to look at cost and conveniency factors involved, including the need or otherwise of repeat visits to the stylist.
Do-it-yourself hair extensions are gaining ground due to these and other factors, with excellent information available about do-it-yourself clip on hair extension, including how to buy hair extensions, taking into account quality, quantity, length, and also instructions on how to prepare your hair for the do it yourself fitting process.

Hair Significance in History – 10 Juicy Anecdotes from Around the World
Hair Significance in History – 10 Juicy Anecdotes from Around the World
Article by Tomer Harel
Since the inception of human history, hair was a symbol of social status and an ever-changing human fashion. From the caveman to the Roman empire, through the Classic era to the 21st century – hair came in all shapes and forms.
We have an emotional connection to our hair, as is evident from the amount of time we spend taking care of it, stressing about it, worrying about losing it, coloring it, primping it, and fondling it absentmindedly. But the significance of a full head of hair is more than emotional. Men battling hair loss today are following the footsteps of many other men and women in history, and not surprisingly, almost every culture on Earth, past and present, attach at least some social significance to hair. Hair can symbolize strength, virility, affluence, and class. In many cases, a King could lose his kingdom by losing his hair, or even just going gray! The next stories spread throughout history and displays the importance of hair in the eyes of past rulers and long lost civilizations!
Samson:
The story of Samson is perhaps the most famous in the bible when it comes to hair and its secret mystical powers. Because of his long hair, he was able to fend the attacks of the Philistines, protect the newly settled area, and be an all around hero to the Hebrews, who were having a hard time dealing with those pesky Philistines that did not take the Hebrew invasion very kindly! Samson, however, had one weakness, namely, the lovely Delilah. One night, after an ardent session of lovemaking, Samson fell into a deep sleep, and the Philistines entered his chamber and cut off his hair, and with it, his strength. Although Samson recovered his powers by intense prayer and piousness, but this story definitely warns us against cutting men’s hair, and links superhuman strength to long hair!
The Egyptian Pharaoh:
It is really hot in Egypt, and was very hot 4000 years ago, and even 5000 years ago. Egyptians mostly wore their head shaved, a practical way to deal with the extreme desert heat. The Pharaohs, however, when in ceremonial dress and demonstrating their power and wealth, wore elaborate wigs made of real human hair, dressed with oil, in locks, and braids. The Pharaoh’s son traditionally had one lock of hair uncut in the center of his head, which he would wear in a bun. No one else was allowed to wear their hair in this particular way, on pain of death!
Caesar:
Julius Caesar, perhaps the most famous Roman ever, was terrified of his hair loss. It is said that he was so embarrassed by his receding hairline that he introduced the fashion of a laurel crown to hide his high forehead… Caesar used to force his defeated enemies to shave their heads to their scalp. Perhaps he thought that if his enemies had even shorter hair than his, he would appear more powerful, as if conquering half of Europe was not enough!
Married/Unmarried Women in Imperial China:
Unmarried Chinese girls’ hair was usually worn long and braided while married women combed the hair back from the face and wound into a knot at the nape. The married or unmarried status of the girl could be signified by her hair, thus avoiding any unwanted advances on married women. Chinese girls’ hair heavily influenced their value in the marriage market. A girl without long, luxurious, very black hair was not considered as good marriage material as girls with.
Japanese:
Samurai would cut their hair when defeated in Medieval Japan. To this day, Sumo wrestlers have a “hair cutting” ceremony when they retire! In Japan, cutting hair was a symbol of defeat and lost of honor, very similar to the honorable Harakiri (ceremonial suicide practiced by the Japanese samurai when disgraced or under a death sentence). Women of samurai families used to cut their hair and even became nuns when she had to part her loved one, and to this day some Japanese girls cut their hair when they have had their heart broken!.
Louis the Fourteenth, King of France:
King Louis XIV, the Sun King, inventor of Ballet and Tennis, was also a particularly vain peacock of a King. When faced with the beginning of hair loss, the King began yet another fashion (in addition to silk vests and high heels for men) – the Male wig. Louis’ wings were so elaborate, that they were built on a wire frame, and more often than not, consisted of three heads of hair in one wig!
The Plains Indians:
Male warriors wore their hair long among the Plains Indians in Northern America. They decorated their hair with feathers and beads, and Chiefs wore large featherhead dresses with additional locks of hair and strings of beads hanging from them, which were considered to be highly impressive. Perhaps the most telling sign of the significance of the hair and scalp in their culture was scalping. People firmly believed that by taking your enemy’s hair you strip him off his manhood. An Indian warrior with the greatest number of scalps hanging from his wigwam was a very powerful man indeed!
The Rastafarian Dreadlocks:
Perhaps the most significant indicator of the Rastafarian social and religious movement is the dreadlocks, which became so popular to this day. The Rastafarian express their spiritual beliefs by wearing locks.
Shaving off the Hair:
Most Monks of all religions, as well as Nuns of the Buddhist faith, shave their head as a symbol of releasing the vanities of the material life. The fact that the vanity involved in hair is so embedded in the human mind is definitely a factor in these vows. Simplicity means having no hair to be vain about, the Buddhist Monks and Nuns say. The unsaid current is, of course, how powerful and strong and beautiful our hair can make us feel, and how deeply we are attached to it.
The Cowboy:
There is probably a second, less verbalized reason for the Cowboy Hat then just sun protection. Cowboys, embodying the most masculine and virile male archetype, battled their hair loss magnificently. The most tough and hardened cowboys lined up to spend their hard earned money on worthless “Snake Oil”, hair growing tonics peddled by charlatan “Doctors” from the side shows and stages of the great wild west medicine shows. Cowboys also used the trick of rubbing grease into their hair, causing it to look thicker. While this was slightly effective, it was a very messy process.
So you see, being obsessed with your hair is a completely normal human emotion!
