Morphology
The compound combines 'hair' (hair-like) with 'stroke' (a single mark), so the meaning of very fine, hair-like marks used to imitate brows is directly derivable from the parts. This is a straightforward descriptive compound following normal English composition and is likely understandable to a B1 learner who knows both words.
Etymology
Hair stroke comes from a beauty treatment where the artist makes tiny lines that look like real eyebrow hairs. Each small stroke copies one hair, so the name means the fine tattoo lines used to 'shape or fill brows'.
