medium brown. You use a pea sized amount so a box will last a long time.

FIVE minutes!

Saw it on Youtube.

I've used Clairol root touch-up (about $7).

The first day, you look like Groucho, and then it fades in about two weeks. But it makes a huge difference, IMO.

during this quarantine. Cut my own hair, colored my hair, learned to use dip powder on my nails, etc.

A video about dying brows popped up and I decided to try it.

...said to myself, "What the hell, I should be proud of living this long..."

The funny thing is that my eyebrows never went gray, and I suspect that if I let a beard or mustache grow - not that my wife would agree, since she refused to date me until I shaved off my mustache - it might still not be gray.

The nice thing is that I'm balding too, and I have less hair to manage.

I can also make fun of myself, but calling myself an "old, fat, bald, gray, white guy."

I used a small brush like the one pictured. I saw some people used vasoline just under the brow to keep any drips away but I didn't find this drippy at all.

And it didn't dye my skin. And it DID dye that stubborn, stiff, white single brow that likes to pop up.

It's basically just a tattoo. My eyebrows have gotten thinner as I've gotten older, and I can't use eyebrow pencil because my hands shake when I'm doing something detailed. I got the eyeliner too. It's not cheap, but it lasts a couple of years.
