If your hair is abundant enough at the bang area, you can do this same haircut and keep long bangs- have your stylist section off the bangs (in a triangle from almost your crown) and leave them alone… do the rest of the cut, then lightly integrate the bangs in at the end, when the hair is almost dry… leaving them at the length that is comfortable for you.
The front will look like Kaley Cuoco's recent pixie cut.

My brows (thanks, by the way) are showing a little silver here and there and are thinning a bit along with my hair.
I fill them in lightly with an artist's colored pencil (a medium grey) using short, vertical strokes, just as if I were drawing them on paper.
I remove any wayward strokes with a damp Q tip.

here's a tip- if you have a regular (graphite) pencil that has softer graphite, softer than a #2, it makes a perfect eyebrow pencil that works with almost any color brow. Just dull the tip a bit, so it is not sharp and use tiny vertical strokes.

I have also used an angled makeup brush (wet it) and matte eye shadow in the same way. It stays in place until you cleanse or wet your face.
That takes a bit more practice than using a pencil- and you'll want your shadow pan to dry completely before putting it away.

They have some great brush on products (like Dermabrow) online, but they are pricey ($30 + shipping)- so I experimented with what I had on hand and it worked for me.
