Eyebrows

Eyebrows are so import ant to us... they do everything! Most importantly, they protect your eyes. The ridge if the brow and the brows themselves channel sweat, rain, and moisture away from the eyeballs so your vision stays clear. Did you know that  they’re essential for nonverbal communication. Scientists who study facial expressions say eyebrows are key to expressing happiness, surprise, and anger. 

Properly shaped Brows  Can do so much for your facial structure. Having a proportional eyebrow can accentuate the face and define your features. There is a science to creating the perfect brow, a different shape can change the look of your entire face. It all has to do with proportions, to find where your eyebrow should start, arch, and stop it’s best to check using the best tools. The front of your eyebrows should start at the inner corner of your eye. Taking an eyebrow pencil or angled brush, line up the arch of your brow with the edge of your nostril. The end of your eyebrow should line up with the outer corner of the eye.  We call this “mapping” the brow.  If everything is lined up, then you have perfectly proportionate brows for your face, but proportionate doesn’t always mean precision.

Even if you have all the angles right, ungroomed brows may result in an ungroomed look to the face. Here are some of the various ways to clean up your brows.

Tweezing is best for those who just want to clean up a few hairs.  Waxing can work to change your shape, but it isn’t going to be the best for making a precise line. This is optimal for cleaning up larger amounts of hair around the eyebrows. Threading uses a piece of thread to twist and pull out multiple hairs out at once, it is the most precise and works best to change your shape. If you opt for threading, make sure to have a high pain tolerance. It might be a good idea to have someone who is a professional do this because it requires two sets of hands.  Using one of these techniques will help you to achieve the desired look.  

Styling your eyebrows can help achieve the ideal look through many techniques. For many, eyebrow pencils are the best option because of how easy it is to use. For others, using powder matched to your eyebrow color and an angled brush can help fill in the brows making them appear fuller, but still remain natural. A new craze has been filling in brows with a colored pomade, slightly drawing above and below in some places to achieve smooth lines and a clean finish. For some, neither of these work for them because of the lack of hair to begin with. Tinting can help to make the hairs and skin underneath darker with the use of a vegetable dye, it remains a very natural look while changing the color, thickness, or shape of the brows without permanent results, lasting two to three months.

While most people think eyebrow care is suited specifically to girls, a perfected brow can be the only thing a guy does and it will still help frame the face. Eyebrow tips and tricks apply to everyone.

All that being said, another amazing thing about grooming Eyebrows is there a can make your appearance seem much more youthful. Clean, well shaped arches Gives the eye a more open, wider, bigger, brighter  appearance, balances the shape of your nose, and draws attention away from sagging skin or puffiness and gives you a much more well-rested, awake, alert, younger appearance! That’s the best reason for shaping eyebrows.
