Conversely, if you want to create a fuller or rounder appearance for your face, you can achieve this by shortening the length of your eyebrows.

Ancient Egyptians

Take into account the Ancient Egyptians who utilized black carbon paint to fashion bold brows resembling the god Horus. In the Renaissance era, there was a preference for well-groomed, arched eyebrows, as untamed hair was deemed unfeminine. Similarly, during the 1920s, actress Clara Bow influenced the trend of thin, straight brows.

Makeup artist Bobbi Brown provides insight into the evolution of brow trends. According to Brown, during the 60s, thin brows were popular. However, in the 1970s, influenced by the hippie generation, a shift towards natural-looking brows emerged.

Microblading eyebrows

Microblading eyebrows is a popular cosmetic procedure that involves a semi-permanent tattoo technique to enhance the appearance of eyebrows. This innovative method uses a handheld tool with tiny needles to create fine hair-like strokes in the skin, resulting in natural-looking and fuller eyebrows. The process begins with a consultation where the technician discusses the desired shape and color of the eyebrows. The next step involves numbing the area to minimize discomfort. Then, the technician carefully etches the individual strokes, following the natural hair growth pattern. The entire procedure usually takes around two hours, and the results can last anywhere from one to three years, depending on various factors such as skin type and aftercare. Microblading eyebrows are a great option for those looking to achieve well-defined and symmetrical eyebrows without the need for daily makeup application.

In 2018, during my trip to Canada, I had my first experience with microblading. Being in the beauty industry for over 25 years, I was excited to enhance my eyebrows. At the age of fifty-one, it is common to lose eyebrow color, and as someone who isn’t a fan of makeup for eyebrows, I turned to beautician Sital for a transformation.

In March 2020, I had a touch-up and they still look fabulous. Time to reconnect with Sital.

Eyebrows have proven to be a trend that continues to gain popularity. According to beauty historian Sital, changing eyebrows is a relatively simple and painless process. Since they grow back, individuals have the chance to experiment with different styles. The rapid cycle of brow trends in recent years, such as Kim Kardashian’s bold geometric block brows, Cara Delevigne‘s feathered brows, and Lizzo’s bleached-out brows, further highlights the constant evolution in this area of beauty.
