1 Woman Fattened Up Her Sparse Eyebrows in an Unexpected but Genius Way

The perils of overplucking one's brows can extend past a temporary "skinny" arch phase. If you're a little too zealous with your tweezers, you can actually cause your brows to be permanently sparse. Makeup artist and YouTuber Stephanie Lange is all too familiar with this beauty phenomenon but has come up with a genius solution: DIY eyebrow extensions.

Though she'd tried growth serums and brow tattoos, she was dissatisfied with the results. She decided to snip her strands and save the trimmings, using semipermanent false lash glue to stick them onto her arches. The result is strikingly realistic-looking (though we're sure it was a time-consuming process). Watch to see the transformation, and remember: if you'd like to try this yourself but don't want to sacrifice your hair's length, you can always cut up some extensions!
