Tadpole brows are exactly what they sound like—eyebrows shaped like tadpoles. Typically caused by overplucking, tadpole-shaped brows are thick at the start of the eyebrow but quickly taper to a pencil-thin trail. Many people accidentally give themselves tadpole brows and want to fix them because they're not currently in style. In this article, we’ll explain what tadpole brows are, what causes them, and step-by-step instructions to fix your brow shape.
Ways to Prevent and Fix Tadpole Brows
- Stop tweezing your brows to allow the hair to grow back. Get fuller eyebrows by applying brow growth serum nightly.
- To remove stray hairs, pluck the hair in the direction it’s growing to avoid follicle damage and encourage healthy growth.
- Outline your ideal brow shape and fill them in with an eyebrow pencil, using light, feathery strokes. Set the look with brow gel.
