Brows are a defining feature that can make or break your whole look. However, not all eyebrows are created equal, and understanding your specific brow type can help you determine the most appropriate treatment to enhance their natural beauty. From thin and sparse brows to thick and unruly ones, each brow type requires a unique approach to achieve the perfect shape and depth. 

Read on as we explore the different brow types and recommend the best brow treatment tailored to each - so you can confidently transform your natural brows into stunning arches that frame your face and elevate your look. 

Thin, sparse, or undefined brows

Thinning brows could be hereditary, or in other cases, due to over-plucking, thyroid imbalance, nutrient deficiencies, or ageing. For thin or sparse brows, we recommend eyebrow embroidery or microblading. This is a semi-permanent procedure that involves depositing pigment into the skin with small, hair-like strokes to create a natural-looking full brow. This treatment is suitable for those who want to enhance their brows and fill in any missing spots. Following up with the right aftercare during your eyebrow embroidery healing process will ensure that the treatment lasts up to 12-18 months. The best part is that you’ll wake up with perfect brows every morning without any hassle of applying makeup.

If you feel that your brows do not have a defined shape or that your straight eyebrows are a little too straight, you could also look into brow henna. Brow henna provides a temporary staining effect on your brows, giving them a fuller and more defined look - similar to that of microblading but does not last as long. Brow henna is a non-invasive treatment, great for creating an illusion of thicker, well-shaped brows. 

Our Brow Henna utilizes halal-certified solutions to create naturally fuller, thicker brows. Try it here.

Bushy or unruly brows

If you have thick, bushy brows and have trouble keeping them in place, we recommend brow lamination. This technique tames unruly strands and gives your brows a full and fluffy yet clean looking appearance. It is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that involves applying a perming solution to the brows to lift and set them in place. How long does brow lamination last? This treatment lasts 3-4 weeks with the right aftercare and lets you wake up every morning with perfectly groomed brows.

Light-colored brows

If you have light-colored and barely-there brows, you can try eyebrow tinting. Eyebrow tinting is a semi-permanent treatment that involves applying dye to the brows to darken them. It is a quick and easy way to enhance your brows and make them more visible, often done together with brow lamination. Tinting lasts for up to 4 weeks and is perfect for those who do not like to wear makeup but want that little extra something to look more put together.
