Eyebrows have become a focal point on the face, with influencers and models pushing boundaries.
Sophia Hadjipanteli, a model who proudly flaunts her natural unibrow, understands this more than anyone as she graces the pages of various international magazines.
Inspired by Her Mother
For Sophia, her mother serves as the cornerstone of inspiration for her self-love journey. She attributes much of her knowledge to her mother, who accepted her at every stage of life, nurturing her creativity and encouraging her to embrace her uniqueness.
Sophia’s mother played a pivotal role in helping her feel comfortable in her own skin, teaching her the beauty of being different, which has undoubtedly influenced Sophia’s creative and original work.

Embracing Uniqueness
Despite her strong self-assurance, Sophia hasn’t always been met with universal acceptance. Encountering unkind treatment in high school and facing online negativity for her distinctive look, she has remained unwavering in her confidence and independence.
Instead of letting hate diminish her spirit, she has used it as a catalyst to further embrace her individuality. In her own words shared in a statement, “It’s particularly satisfying to know that that big unibrow is on the cover of Glamour UK, and it looks great.”
The Unibrow Movement
Going beyond her own journey, Sophia initiated the Unibrow Movement on Instagram. Under this hashtag, users can find a plethora of images showcasing diverse individuals who, like Sophia, proudly embrace their uniqueness.
The movement aims to empower individuals to love themselves just as they are. Through this hashtag, thousands are encouraged to celebrate their dissimilarities and spread positivity and acceptance.
Sophia’s social media presence not only highlights the importance of self-love but also underscores the effort it takes to truly appreciate oneself.
A Journey of Self-Love
In her own words, Sophia emphasizes, “It’s a process. Not everyone feels 100% every day, and that’s totally okay. But it starts from within! You can be the most ‘perfect’ person in the world, but if you don’t see it with your own eyes, you’ll never feel that love for yourself. It takes time to build that relationship with yourself, but once you do, everything feels so much better. You feel free.“
We can all learn from Sophia’s message of spreading positivity and fostering self-acceptance!
