Complete Guide to Shaping Your Eyebrows

07 Oct Complete Guide to Shaping Your Eyebrows

Define the Ideal Shape:

• Observe the Shape of Your Face. Eyebrows can help soften or accentuate your features. For instance, if you have a round face, arched eyebrows can help elongate it.
• Mark Key Points. Use a pencil to mark three key points on each eyebrow: the start, the arch, and the end.
• Align a pencil from the side of your nose to the inner corner of your eye. This point will mark the beginning of your eyebrow.
• Place the pencil from the side of your nose through the outer edge of your pupil. This is the highest point of your eyebrow.
• Extend the pencil from the side of your nose to the outer corner of your eye. This point will mark the end of your eyebrow.

  

Prepare Your Tools:

• Tweezers: Opt for high-quality tweezers with a slanted tip for greater precision.
• Brush: Use a brush to comb and organise the hairs before and after tweezing.
• Small Scissors: Choose ones with rounded tips to avoid accidental cuts.
• Pencil or Powder: For filling and defining, select a shade similar to your natural hair colour.
• Mirror: Preferably one with magnification for better visibility.
• Disinfectant: To clean the tweezers before and after use.
  

Precise Tweezing:

• Brush Your Eyebrows Upwards: This will give you a better view of the hairs you need to remove.
• Work Slowly and Carefully: To avoid plucking more hairs than necessary.
• Always Tweeze in the Direction of Hair Growth: To prevent ingrown hairs.
• Gently Stretch the Skin: Use your fingers to slightly pull the skin around the area you’re tweezing. This will make the hairs stand up and be easier to remove.
• Take Breaks if Needed: If you experience pain or discomfort, take a break.

Trim Long Hairs:

• Brush Upwards: This will concentrate the hairs and help you see which ones are too long.
• Trim Carefully: Use small scissors to trim only the tips that extend beyond the desired shape.
