Are thin brows making a comeback in 2025?
Are thin brows making a comeback in 2025?
Yes - but it’s not the same over-plucked story.
The 90s brow is back, only now it’s softer, more styled, and a whole lot more versatile.
From runway looks to red carpets, thinner brows are popping up again. Think Bella Hadid, not Pamela Anderson. The modern take is groomed, arched, and carefully shaped - not tweezed into oblivion.
But before you reach for the wax, there’s more to consider.
Is a Thinner Brow right for you?
Not every face suits a skinny brow. We repeat, not every face suits a skinny brow.
Your natural brow shape, bone structure and style all play a role.
Here’s how to tell…
- You have naturally fine brows. Going thinner may enhance your features rather than overpower them.
- You enjoy experimenting. Brows are one of the easiest ways to change your look - temporarily or long-term.
But if you’ve spent the last decade growing them back… we get it. This isn’t a trend to rush into.
Our Golden Rule? Keep versatility.
Some of us never recovered from the 90s over-pluck. We know the trauma. Once the hair is gone, it doesn’t always grow back. So instead of committing to a full reshape, try a few clever ways to fake the thinner look first.
How to try the thin brow trend (Without waxing)
1. Style with Concealer
Lightly define your usual brow shape, then soften the lower edge with concealer.
This lifts the brow and creates a slimmer appearance - no tweezers required.
Try our Dual Brow Highlighter. Just use the concealer end to define the underside of your brow, before lightly blending upwards to create the illusion of thinner brows.
2. Feather down with Brow Gel
Use a clear brow gel to gently press brow hairs downward or sideways. It gives the illusion of a flatter, thinner line without removing a single hair.
Try our Brow Fix (Clear Brow Gel or Brow Lock (Brow Soap).
3. Fill differently
Try drawing a thinner shape within your natural brow using a brow pencil or powder.
Focus on the arch, and avoid the thick inner corners for a refined, narrower look.
4. Book a Brow Styling Session
