Meagan Good got an eyebrow transplant: ‘After destroying my eyebrows, there’s hope’
April 20, 2018
Vanity is one trait I’d like to think I share with celebrities, although I’d much rather share a trait like the ability to earn gobs of money or turn the world on with my smile, but I guess I’ll take what I was dealt.
Being the vain creature I am, I have been known to spend too much money making myself look more presentable. I think I’ve single-handedly kept my local nail salon in business and I searched in earnest to find the absolute best place to get my brows done, because I pride myself on keeping my brow game on fleek, as the kids say. I have been known to drop $50 a pop for an arch shaping and dye job, so I can identify with Meagan Good’s quest for the perfect brow – although she had to spend considerably more that $50 to achieve it.
The 36-year-old actress, probably best known for Anchorman 2, abused her eyebrows in her teens. The constant plucking, waxing and even shaving caused her to opt for tattooed brows at the tender age of 19.
I can only assume Megan wanted to go for a more natural look, so six months ago, she decided to undergo an advanced procedure to bring back her brows. She skipped microblading as an option and went for an “eyebrow transplant,” a procedure offered by cosmetic surgeon to the stars, Dr. Jason Diamond. Jason’s celebrity clients include Kim Kardashian and Amber Rose.
The procedure involves harvesting hair from the back of the scalp. According to the doctor’s website, “After hair is harvested, tiny angled incisions are made in the brow area, and the hairs are grafted into the hair follicles.” The whole process takes several hours to perform. People who have had the procedure done generally see results in four to six months, when natural hair begins to grow. Dr. Diamond posted a clip of the procedure to his Instagram which I’m linking to because it might be a little oogy for some to see.
The transplant isn’t cheap, with an estimated median price of $7,500, but the results are pretty impressive. Meagan shared her follicular journey with her Instagram followers, taking them from the day she “got the final shape drawn on” to now, when she said that she’s “over the moon” about her “eyebrow evolution journey.” Her brows look awesome, so that was definitely money well spent.
