No quite frankly it is likely to have just the opposite effect. Prolonged exposure of your eyebrows (and all of your hair for that matter) to excessive sun rays can be quite damaging and could even lead to hair loss.

Exposure to the sun's ultra-violet A and B (UVA and UVB) rays can damage your hair from its cuticle to its inner structure the cortex. The outermost layer of your hair is made up of overlapping scales, as on a fish. Healthy hair cuticles lie down smoothly and reflect light, giving hair its shine. This is the only protecting layer for your hair. But when the hair shaft is exposed to the sun those scales dry out and begin to flare and become brittle. It is in this state that the hair shaft is in its most vulnerable condition and is subject to breakage. Or in extreme cases the hair follicle will dry to the point that it actually dies and falls out.

A key principle to remember is that hair damage occurs from the outside in and hair growth occurs from the inside out. So protection from the environment with sun blocking strategy is essential. Keep dryness at bay with an occasional moisturizing treatment to those scales which will help them to lay flat and smooth. This will help protect your hair from damage and hair loss.

But if you are looking for hair growth then your strategy needs to be inside out. Your most beautiful, fast growing hair is accomplished through good health, nutrition, exercise and of course, a good hair care routine. A large number of nutritionist's agree taking a daily multiple vitamins may help in achieving healthier hair, if you are not getting what nutrients you need from your daily diet. Other vitamins and minerals that come up often in regards to growing a healthy head of hair are; B-complex vitamins, especially biotin, PABA, and vitamin E. Your hair is mostly protein. Nutritionists are praising the high-protein/low-carbohydrate diets for good health.

Good Luck

Your daughter had a patch of hair pulled out of her head three months ago and there is still no sign of regrowth The patch is about the diameter of a quarter will this hair regrow and if so how long?

Well, it's tough to say. I am a Doctor, and I was a Barber in the Navy. I was also one heck of a pilot. The question is...why do we grow hair in the first place? The answer to that question is fairly obvious...warmth. In your daughter's case, I would use an old family recipe of mine to regrow her hair. First, wait till the clock strikes midnight on Halloween. Next, crack the egg of a Rooster on the bald spot. Once the yolk is rubbed into the cranium....chant to the Sun god till day break. On Christmas day your daughter will have a full, thick head of hair.

How can I make my hair color treatment last longer?

To help hair color treatment last longer make sure your hair has not been washed at least 24 hours prior to the treatment. The natural oils in your hair will help make the color application more successful. Also make sure to use a color enhancing shampoo after you hair has been colored. This will help it to last longer. Make sure to avoid swimming in chlorine pools. If you do swim a lot then make sure to rinse your hair right after you get out of the pool. Another thing to avoid is long exposure to the sun. The sun can fade your hair as well.
