But just when you thought you’ve seen it all, the quirky new halo brows entered the conversation…

Like many bizarre beauty trends, halo brows owe their existence to the wonderfully weird world of social media. Platforms like TikTok and Instagram have become the ultimate breeding grounds for trends that challenge traditional beauty norms.

Halo brows – a halo-like arc across your forehead that connects both brows into one loop – was created by Hannah Lyne, a 16-year-old British-born influencer, whose new doodles went viral almost instantly.

“So me and [a friend] were talking about the fishtail brow trend & then we came up with this,” Lyne captions the Instagram post where she introduces the design that left people excited and confused.

Speaking with Pop Sugar, the beauty blogger explained it wasn’t a joke and that the “look was influenced by fishtail brows.”

“I was having a conversation with a friend trying to come up with a new idea for a look, and all of a sudden it came to me that I should connect my brow tails,” she said.

Further discussing her vision with Yahoo Style, Lyne said, “I just want people to embrace being silly and doing weird, creative looks!”

‘Ridiculous’ fad

As with many trends born on social media, halo brows sparked a flurry of mixed reactions.

Some Instagram users seemed to love the design and praised Lyne’s creativity: “I love it!” writes one user, while a second pens: “All of your looks are so original…Honestly your talent is endless!”

“How on Earth do you come up with your ideas? They’re so creative and you always execute them so well! You’re incredibly talented,” shares a third.

However, the majority of netizens were quick to dismiss the updated unibrow as a “ridiculous” fad.

“Vomits Uncontrollably,” writes one user in the comments section of Lyne’s Instagram post. “I can’t tell if she’s joking,” offers a second, while a third writes, “Instagram? More like Instaregret.”

Meanwhile, others said she looks “ridiculous,” and suggested they’re “deleting Instagram because of this photo.”

Yet Cosmopolitan called the “heavenly halo brows” “strangely beautiful.”

“Prepare to meet the unconventional, yet gorgeous work of arch,” the publication writes of the looped eyebrows.

Even if you’re not on board with the look, it’s fun to see makeup artists finding different ways to style their eyebrows – whether they have one or two of them.
