Hailey Bieber can do no wrong when it comes to slaying her lewks, but even she made this one faux pas that she has regretted for years. But it’s not just her, you and I have also fallen prey to this weird 2000s trend as well. We’re all victims here.
The worst part about having followed this particular trend is that it leads to years of irreversible damage. But some of us like Hailey Bieber have finally reversed the damage and risen anew with only cringe memories of it left behind. So, what is this trend? Read on for all the deets.
Hailey Bieber’s Beauty Faux Pas
In an interview, Hailey revealed that her eyebrows got damaged since she used to pluck them too much to make them super thin because thin eyebrows were considered to be beautiful in the 2000s. She said, “When I was a teenager, I plucked my eyebrows really badly. I went through that phase where I thought a thin eyebrow was the way to go.”
We all went through that phase, Hailey, and we all suffered when we tried to grow them back.
Why Was The Thin Brow Trend Damaging?
When you tweeze or thread your eyebrows too much for a long period of time, the hair follicles get damaged, and that impairs hair growth. This is why many find it difficult to grow back their eyebrows especially since the skinny eyebrow trend has finally died and thicker eyebrows are the beauty standard RN.
The thin eyebrow trend was also a tough one to follow and set unhealthy beauty standards. Because many women would obsessively pluck their eyebrows and were often embarassed if their brows weren’t tweezed or threaded to look pencil-thin. Achieving pencil-thin brows comes with a lot of pain too as there’s lots more hair being pulled from the skin.
How Did Hailey Bieber Make Her Brows Thick Again?
Hailey said, “So after I went through that, I let them grow in thick and not really have a shape. Once they came back in, I started slowly getting them shaped. I do think castor oil does help them to grow. When I was trying to get them to grow back in, I put castor oil on them every night.”
Hailey basically left her brows alone for a while and then only got them shaped minimally by cleaning up stray strands that fell out of her natural brow shape. Castor oil is also a great natural remedy to make hair thicker.
How To Grow Back Thicker Eyebrows?
Taking cue from Hailey Bieber, skip doing anything to shape your brows for a while and let them grow. When they grow considerably, don’t go to your parlour aunty to get them threaded out. Use an eyebrow razor instead to gently remove stray strands of hair that fall out of your natural brow shape. The Sirona Blink & Glow Face Razor is a great tool to groom your eyebrows painlessly at home.
Massage some castor oil on your eyebrows regularly and see the difference.
Hailey Bieber is too relatable for having been a victim of the thin eyebrow trend. Just like us, we’re sure she’s thinking the same about the skinny brow trend – never again!
