FEATURE: City salon can give you dream brows
Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past couple of years, you can’t have missed the hairy trend that’s steadily taking over the faces of A-listers - as well as mere mortals - everywhere.

“Brows have been big for a few years,” explains Vinisha, aged 41.
“Ever since Cara Delevingne exploded on to the scene in 2009 with her distinct look.”

“They’re the hottest feature on the face; you can even get away with no makeup, if you have the perfect eyebrows framing your face.”
But Vinisha says this trend is just the latest in our long and fascinating brow history.
“In the last hundred years, eyebrows have gone from straight to arched, from thick to thin and back again,” she reveals.
