Interview with Zahra Elkhamsi, Renowned Eyebrow Stylist
Jimmy: Welcome, Zahra! Eyebrows have always been a significant trendsetter. What’s happening in 2023?
Zahra: Thanks, Jimmy! In 2023, we’re steering back towards a more natural look. People are embracing their natural brow shapes and textures more than ever.
Jimmy: Is it true that the ‘bigger, the better’ trend is being abandoned now?
Zahra: Absolutely. We’re seeing a shift towards lighter, more refined brow shapes. It’s not about size anymore but about the lift and elegance.
Jimmy: What are your thoughts on the eyebrow lamination trend?
Zahra: Laminations are still popular, but people are cautious. Too much can look overdone. It’s about balance now.
Jimmy: Bleached brows – is that a yes or a no for most people?
Zahra: It’s daring, Jimmy. But surprisingly, many are going for it. It’s a nod to the late ’90s, and some find it incredibly freeing.
Jimmy: And how about these ‘quiet volume’ brows we keep hearing about?
Zahra: Light touches that add volume delicately. It’s all about making the brows look fuller without the heavy products.
Jimmy: Are the thin, sculpted brows coming back too?
Zahra: They’re back for those who want to experiment. It takes confidence and skill to pull off, though.
Jimmy: What’s your take on using brow gels and waxes in achieving these looks?
Zahra: They’re essential tools in today’s brow styling. The idea is to enhance, not overpower.
Jimmy: How should someone choose the right brow trend for themselves?
Zahra: It’s all about personal preference. Trends are references, not rules. Find what complements your face.
Jimmy: Do you believe TikTok and social media play a big role in these trends?
Zahra: Huge! They shape beauty trends rapidly. Sometimes negatively, if not approached with care.
Jimmy: Lastly, what’s a timeless eyebrow tip you would give?
Zahra: Embrace your natural brow structure. Enhance it, and don’t over-style.
Jimmy: Thanks, Zahra! Love the insights. It’s been a fun and enlightening talk!
Zahra: Thank you, Jimmy! It’s been a pleasure.
