Bushy Brows

Ever since Cara Delevingne came into the public eye we were graced with the bushy eyebrow trend. Big, thick, beautiful eyebrows.
Whilst many people could quite easily replicate this look, I struggled. You see, I’m lacking in the brow department. I am naturally very fair and for some reason this means that my eyebrows are invisible to the naked eye. Okay, maybe I’m exaggerating a bit… But they do take quite a bit of pencilling in to resemble an eyebrow.

Last summer I went on holiday with my friends to Cyprus, I knew that this meant I would be swimming (makeup free) in the sea. If I tried to pencil my eyebrows in, I thought, before I go swimming I’d only end up with them dripping down my face by the end of the day. Blonde/ invisible eyebrows is one thing but having dark smudges smeared across my cheeks would probably look worse.
It wasn’t the end of the world and it didn’t really bother me as much as I’m making out, so I was ready to admit defeat. Until I was introduced to the world of HD brows. What are HD brows, you ask? They’re basically the fairy godmother of eyebrows.
Normally, I don’t like paying for anything if I can get the same result at home. But I definitely would not be able to replicate HD brows with my pair of tweezers. They start off by tinting the hairs of your eyebrow… Genius. Although, when I first saw the colour of the dye that the beautician had made, images of Groucho Marx sprang to mind.

She reassured me that the colour would be a lot lighter and she was, of course, correct. The colour looked very natural but still dark enough to not need any additional help from a pencil. She then proceeded to wax them into shape for me.
At last, I had perfect eyebrows that stayed perfect all summer long! I would definitely get these done again but only for a special occasion or a holiday, as it is quite expensive.
You can get a regular eyebrow tint for a fraction of the price though and I fully recommend getting that done. It makes the smaller hairs darker which gives you a bigger eyebrow to shape and overall a more polished look.
