It just doesn’t happen to be that girls have perfect brows. It takes a true professional with years of mastering the art of balance and framing to accomplish this specialized art. Eyebrow shaping is an art all in itself and should be treated as such. When shaping eyebrows, the professional needs to see the person’s face shape eye to eye and take into consideration the natural arch in order to determine the correct shape of the brow. Eyebrows shaped correctly can give you an updated look, the illusion of an eyelift and an all-around youthful appearance. It’s amazing how just the right brow style can change the way you look! Everyone is so different and what shape works on one person may not work on the next. It’s very hard to go by what magazines say as a guide to perfect brows, because no two women are the same.
When shaping eyebrows, never have them shaped lying down; (position for facials), it’s the biggest mistake. The professional cannot see your natural arch, or your face shape. It’s no wonder we get so many girls in here with ruined brows. You should never add a real dark color to the brows; it brings too much attention to that area and looks harsh. You don’t want your brows to walk into the room before you do. I have seen many girls with these wildly, burly, darkened highly arched eyebrows, it is so unbalanced and unattractive, also it takes away from your beautiful eyes. Girls think this looks glamorous but it just isn’t. Brows should gently frame the eyes delicately and naturally. If you have sparse brows and need to add color, apply a brow pencil that is waterproof and that is one shade lighter. Your eyebrow will look thicker, beautiful, refined and the color won’t come off during the day.
Unkempt eyebrows can make you look angry, older than you are, and often make you look tired. A little trimming and taming will get them back into shape. I love fuller brows and I love shaping them. It is a gift to have them, so for girls with full brows, I suggest shaping them with a slight arch to open the eye and wax them to make them symmetrical and nicely groomed.
Eyebrow BEWARE
BEWARE of nail salons that offer brow shaping; they may not have a license nor the experience or the understanding of this specialized art. DO NOT bleach your brows. It does not look natural and can turn orange in a couple of weeks. Using eyebrow tints are highly recommended if white hairs are popping up or if the color is fading. Caution: Only use specific eyebrow tints on brows. Hair color will ruin brows, dry the hairs, turn orange, and cause them to fall out.
