A lot of people do micro blading to their eyebrows; one host looks like she had it done. It's very dark in the beginning. I'd like to have it done as my brows are very light and sparse. I had them tinted to see how they would look and was pleased. But, one must go to a very good place and there are many in NYC but I'll wait until Covid numbers go down.

Ugh, eyebrows! I'm just getting over six weeks of an allergic reaction to getting my eyebrows and eyelashes tinted. Boxes and boxes for Benedryl and allergy eye drops four times a day. My eyes have always been sensitive to new makeup so I should have known. The older I get, the more brain cells I lose.

As with ALL beauty trends, it will soon pass. When done CORRECTLY, I think it is a nice look; though I do not believe it complements every face shape.😊

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

Drawn on eyebrow don't look that great,but the way some of the woman and guest included on QVC and the way they do eyebrows don't look that great either. Who says more is a good thing? Over done is over done.

That's a really nice remark to those of us who have no choice! Made my day!

Looks better than the alternative!

Too bad they don't sell those (brain cells)!!

I have very thin and very sparse brows which I'm sure is the result of overplucking/tweezing because super thin brows used to be in back in the day.

Now I have no choice but to draw them on otherwise I don't look like I have brows. The key IMO is to be careful. I try to have a light hand and I don't completely fill in. You can still see some skin through my brows.

I'm not a fan of the complete drawn on brow look. I know women who have great brows who still heavily fill them in with pencil and to me it's not a good look.

What I really don't care for is the soap brow look or the fluffy brows where the hairs are combed straight up and then shellaced into place. But the beauty industry has to do something new to sell new products.

There was just an article in The New York Times about eyebrow lamination.

Eyebrow lamination — a perm for those wanting their brows to appear fuller, thicker and maybe a little unkempt — is one of the latest semi-permanent beauty trends (think microblading, or tattooing on eyebrows). During the pandemic, some aestheticians saw the number of clients requesting laminations increase substantially, even though the trend has been around for a few years now. (8/1/21, updated 8/2/21)
