Beauty trends have raised some serious eyebrows over the years.
But none was as polarizing as the '90s trend of skinny eyebrows. It was on almost every celeb back then, from Gwen Stefani to Pamela Anderson to Charlize Theron.
While we wish we could leave the past in the past, it seems that skinny eyebrows are coming back to haunt us.
Brace yourselves!
Low-rise jeans are one. Sydney Sweeney sparked a discussion on this when she showed up to this year's MTV Movie Awards wearing an all-pink glittery micro-mini skirt paired with a super-cropped collared top by Miu Miu.
While she looked great, it was a trend that not a lot of people feel comfortable pulling off.
This feeling of self-consciousness made people feel wary about the low-rise trend coming back.
"No shade to beautiful Sydney... but I'm sad we're seeing more of this ULTRA low rise waist and ULTRA flat tummy look again," a user commented.
Many were worried about the pressure women will feel to have a toned stomach in order to rock this trend, which is all valid concerns.
We wish we could end it there, but there's one more beauty trend that's springing up everywhere, and we're not happy about it: skinny eyebrows.
Same with bleached brows. But since then, more and more skinny eyebrows have been popping up. And here we thought it was bad to overpluck!
“It’s not the mascara anymore. It’s not the powerful lip. It’s your brow,” New York City- and Los Angeles-based Chanel brow artist Jimena Garcia told Women's Health.
“I think people in the '80s didn't necessarily realize the impact the brows have on your face,” Josh Beeler, a brow specialist at Shen Beauty in New York City added.
Now that the skinny eyebrow trend is back in style, he believes that rebellion is partly to blame (or thank, depending on how you feel about the resurgence).
He added that it's mainly a younger demographic embracing this trend since they weren't around during it in the '90s.
Beeler explained that repeated trauma to a hair follicle aka lots of tweezing might stop the hair from growing.
So if you want your brows to look on fleek ever again, definitely think twice!
