Itâs no secret that the internet is full of weird beauty tips and tricks.
From using potato peels to cure undereye bags to shaving your bikini line with olive oil, we thought weâd seen it all⌠that is, until eyebrow wigs entered the game.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Accidentally overplucked your eyebrows? No problem.
Wanting to get that eyebrow lion mane look thatâs all over Instagram right now? Done.
And whatâs even more bonkers? Theyâre actually surprisingly realistic.
Originally created for those suffering from alopecia or those undergoing chemotherapy, eyebrow wigs are effectively a temporary eyebrow tattoo made from real human hair.
Beauty YouTuber Jeffree Star first kicked off the trend when he tried out the wigs for his 9 million subscribers last year.
Putting Final Touch Brows to the ultimate test, the sassy internet star filmed a tutorial in which he attached the â100 percent human hairâ fake brows to his bare skin and was âpleasantly surprisedâ by the âreal results.â
Seeing as the wigs can be worn for up to seven days and then recycled every three months, Jeffree was full of praise and said it was âsuch an innovative, cool idea.â
But considering Jeffree has been shaving his eyebrows since he was in â10th gradeâ and applied them directly to the skin, these stick-on wigs might not be for those who are simply after a more bushy brow look.
Fellow beauty vlogger Natalie Alzante was less than impressed with the eyebrow wigs she bought off of eBay and filmed the tutorial as part of her âCRINGEY PRODUCTâseries.
Criticizing the $13 product âmade of real human hairâ as being too expensive, Natalie filmed the extensive tutorial in which she had to cut the brows to mimic her natural shape and apply them using a âthin layer of adhesiveâ super-strength glue.
Unsurprisingly, the online star claimed the wigs left her brows âfeeling suffocated.â
Although thereâs no denying that the product left Natalie with Instagram-worthy bushy brows, the beauty fanatic concluded that they werenât âworthâ the hassle of extensive glue application.
