I’m a professional makeup artist. This means I regularly apply makeup on other people. This also means that, after years of practicing on my own face, I basically know how to do my makeup with my eyes closed. Except for my eyebrows. The bane of doing my own face has always been my eyebrows. Thick yet sparse distribution, uneven from one to the other and wiry hairs with a mind of their own, my brows are in constant need of being pampered, trimmed, filled in and gelled down. Just shy of being coddled like a poodle, they are the epitome of high maintenance.
With all that being stated, I’d pretty much come to my wits end until I heard the latest in the world of all things trend y and extension-like: eyebrow extensions.
