Lace Front Eyebrows.... or Nah?

We all know that lace front wigs exist, but lace front eyebrows? Nope, you didn't read that wrong. The Lace front eyebrow is a real thing. 

Small patches of real or synthetic hair sewn onto layers of lace to place over your eyebrows... Kinda like a lace front for your eyes. 

You apply them by using an adhesive to place them on top of your natural brows. Sounds a little agonizing if you ask me. Removal must be a pain.


As I looked deeper into this fairly recent trend,  I learned that aside from theatrical use cancer patients who have lost their hair during chemotherapy were likely wear these enhancements for a more natural eyebrow look. More than understandable.

However,  practical use as just another beauty product? I don't know... I perfectly understand wanting fuller eyebrows because I've always had sparse brows myself, but literally gluing prosthetics to my face to get that look is a bit much.


Thicker eyebrows may be in but there are very effective and less dramatic ways to achieve the look. I've found glorious eyebrows with a few good makeup/cosmetic products. A good primer, lining pencil, brow powder, spooly & angled brush. I'm not much into on camera tutorials but there are a gang of them on YouTube! 




Cara Delevigne makes the thicker brow look good but it isn't for everyone. If you think lace front eyebrows are something you'd like to try, go for it! There are a gang of YouTube videos on this topic as well.
Tried it already? Tell me about your experience!
