A new and seemingly unusual brow trend seems to be taking social media by storm recently: the fishtail eyebrows. As bizarre as it may sound, we shouldn’t actually act surprised because recently, we’ve been witnessing the birth and dead of many weird brow trends like the Nike brow, the zig zag brow, and the Christmas brow. However, this new one might be a little bit more special because it doesn’t actually look bad at all. It’s interesting and will surely attract some looks.
This craze about the fishtail eyebrows started when people began Photoshopping their selfies and making their brows appear split in two. The top part was flicking upwards in order to resemble the tail of a fish. However, when the trend began gaining attention, people actually began implementing it in the real life and doing everything they could to have those fishtail eyebrows. Stefan, the owner of the Instagram account called SkyzEditz is the one responsible for starting this trend. He first took a photo of beauty guru Huda Kattan, form Huda Beauty, and photoshopped the fishtail eyebrows onto her face. He even told people how he created it.
Fishtail eyebrows, the hot new Instagram trend
And because the Photoshop part wasn’t enough, people quickly began drawing the fishtail eyebrows themselves. However, experts are warning people to stop at drawing this unusual shape with eyebrow pencils and a bit of concealer. People should not experiment anything t drastic with their eyebrows in order to achieve this look. Eventually, this trend will pass and if you got something permanent you will surely be a bit mad at yourself.
