There's A Science Behind Why Some People Have Unibrows

Have you ever wondered why some people have unibrows and others don't?

Well, it turns out you're not alone, as Scientists have now looked at the genes of more than 6000 people from Latin America, and have identified 18 genes that appear to influence hair traits, including the one associated with unibrows.

The study, published in Nature Communications, founded specific genes were related to unibrows, baldness, hair curliness, beard density and hair greying.

The unibrow segment of the study was limited to men as women usually pluck their brows and it would be hard for the scientists to determine how bushy they actually are.

According to Andrés Ruiz-Linares, professor of human genetics at University College London, being able to identity which gene is linked to certain hair characteristics - like the PAX3 which is linked to unibrows - may one day help in criminal forensics.

It may also help cosmetic surgeons, who may be able to create a cream to counteract the enzymes responsible for that hair type.

Which means that very soon, we may never see a single unibrow again.

Amen to that!
