It may be a trend that uber makeup artist Pat McGrath is doing on the runways, but it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s something you should do. Case in point? Bleaching eyebrows so that they almost disappear. If you do want to do this look, this is something your hairstylist should do. No, not your makeup artist, esthetician, or eyebrow girl. Technically, they’re not legally and by state board regulations, not even allowed to bleach any hair on your face. Why? They’ve had absolutely no training in it at all. Hair stylists are trained in the coloring and lightening of hair. We’re not. And yes, I can’t tell you how many brows I’ve had to tint with a brow tint (which is softer than hair color, and again, do not use on brows.. and the color gradually fades, not grows out….) because a hair stylist bleached a brow only to have it turn orange. Yep. Orange. Not a pretty sight. And the darker your hair is that you want to lighten? The harder it is to do. So while it looks pretty on the runway, I stress caution. Be really careful if you want to try this look.
