<\/p>\nTHE SO-CALLED noughties have been slowly creeping back into our lives for a while now, whether that's sporting disc belts or low-rise denim.<\/p>\n
But our obsession with the '90s, which gave us Tamagotchi and Spice Girls, has now manifested in the return of another once-loved trend – thin eyebrows.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Yes, you read that correctly – the pencil-thin brows are now back, this time stronger than ever, with celebs, such as Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid, plucking their eyebrows thinner and thinner.<\/p>\n
"I think there's an obsession with the '90s happening, and we're seeing Gen-Z focus on this, especially on TikTok," explained bro whizz, Joey Healy, in an interview with In Style.<\/p>\n
According to experts, we are now shifting from the bushy and dark look pioneered by Cara Delevigne and moving into the new year with the rather ''controversial'' look.<\/p>\n
However, while some cannot wait to sport the trend quick enough, there is a reason why many will do everything in their power to steer clear of it.<\/p>\n
This is because overplucking caused a lot of damage across the world, with beauty lovers claiming their brows are sill recovering from the '90s.<\/p>\n Unlike dyeing your hair or trying out new make-up trends – which again will see the resurgence of noughties-inspired looks – thin eyebrows is not something you can easily fix back.<\/p>\n However, while we're still recovering from the overplucking days, the experts insisted we've learnt from our mistakes and this time it will not<\/em> be a ''complete repeat'' of the infamous look.<\/p>\n Instead, we'll be aiming for a ''sculpted, sleek'' look which also ''incorporates\u00a0brow lamination, the biggest trend of the past couple of years'', noted Sandra Saenz, a professional make-up artist.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "With the current thin brow, you can still expect to see a bit of density throughout. <\/p>\n ''Gone are the days of thinning the brows and leaving them sparse and almost invisible,'' fellow whizz Jared Bailey added.<\/p>\n But whether the beauty pros swear by it or not, the reaction online has been pretty clear – and not everyone will be jumping on the train back to the '90s.<\/p>\n Many raced to warn others about their past mistakes, the consequences of which they're still dealing with.<\/p>\n ''Don\u2019t pluck them out. I did that in the 90s and mine never grew back so I have very thin eyebrows,'' wrote one TikTok user.<\/p>\n Another shared the same experience, writing: ''Mine's never grown back since 90s!''<\/p>\n ''As someone who lived through the trend before, don\u2019t pluck, they will not recover. Just shave them into shape,'' someone else advised.<\/p>\n ''This is giving me PTSD of growing up in the 90s\/00s,'' chime din a fellow beauty lover who had been left traumatised.<\/p>\n ''I love thin eyebrows,'' hit back a style enthusiast who couldn't wait to pluck their brows.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/newspress-collage-fik2wd3lp-1702992195195.jpg\")
