Hello!i over-bleached my eyebrows and they got burned.and hair that left in is kind of damaged.will my eybrows grow back normally?

Yes: It would be very unlikely for a chemical burn from a hair lightener to go deep enough to damage the follicles. So yes, eventually your eyebrows will grow back normally, but for eyebrows this takes a very long time. It can take a year or longer to fully regrow eyebrows, so be patient.
