Hair trends come and go with the seasons, and the arrival of warmer weather means brows can also use a refresh. Brow queen Amy Jean Linnehan says there is a trend towards “softer, more natural brow tones in taupes, soft ash-browns and neutral brunettes, rather than overly dark, heavy brows”.

“Summer is the perfect time to reassess your brow colour and shape,” adds Linnehan, who recommends a Mist Brow Tattoo treatment, which she says “can make all the difference to framing up your face. With cosmetic tattooing, there is a preference for sheer washes of colour.”

Brows look best balanced with a subtle, rather than exaggerated, arch. According to Linnehan, the new brow is based around “a pixelated effect. The result should be so subtle that nobody can tell you’ve had your brows tattooed.”

For filling in sparse brows, Linnehan suggests using a powder to create fullness and definition; a fine-tipped pencil for mimicking individual hairs; and gel for hold and to create lift and the appearance of fuller brows.

If you are trying to grow out your brows, a peptide-based serum may help condition the hair and reduce breakage. Eyebrow hair growth is slow, so persistence and patience are essential.
