It all began as a light-hearted joke, but now feather brows have taken the beauty world by storm—and we have so many questions! Seriously, are we expected to keep up with every new beauty trend, from brow thickness to lip gloss hues? Enter feather brows, a look that has many of us scratching our heads in disbelief.
Is this really a thing? As busy parents, we already have our hands full, and the last thing we need is to be gluing our eyebrows into bizarre shapes.
Let’s be real: this trend, which involves styling brows into distinct, feather-like strands reminiscent of a centipede, leaves us wondering what on earth is happening in the beauty sphere. Initial reactions from my friends and I can be summed up as a resounding “Nope.” One friend even quipped, “Why not just attach a pigeon to your face while we’re at it?” Gotta love a good sense of humor!
According to Glamour, we can thank Finnish makeup artist Stella Sironen for this eyebrow-raising trend. She suggested using a glue stick to achieve the feathered look—because why not add another layer of “what the heck” to our beauty routines? Sironen mentioned in a follow-up post that this was initially meant as a joke (sadly, we’re not laughing), but it quickly caught on with other Instagram users eager to replicate the style.
For those who find regular feather brows a tad too understated, why not throw in some gold glitter? If we’re living in a real-life Hunger Games, we might as well channel our inner Effie Trinket, right?
So, while this comedic trend is gaining traction, if feather brows are your thing, go for it! We’ll just be here, sporting our own brows without glue and perfecting our “wtf” expressions.
