Brow Shape


This is an important subject.  Why?  Because the shape of your brow can change your look.  It can make you look Crazy, Messy, Excited, it can even age you.  So Please-O-Please ensure you are getting the brow that fits YOU as an individual.  Not a brow that fit’s a trend or what you seen on someone else.  I like to take an approach were I do more tweezing then waxing.  Many brows are overly waxed.  These days thin lines are just not cute & it is very hard to grow that hair back.  Especially the older you are.

Also I get very irritated when I see the brow filled in with the wrong color powder or pencil for your brow.  Even if you have to mix colors please ensure they match because it is noticeable.  When filling in the brow strokes should be used, these stokes are to be similar to natural hair strokes.
1.  If you don't know how to do your brows then don't, you don't want to over pluck nor shave.  Like I said the older you are the thinner or less hair you may have to begin with.
2.  If you need to fill in or if your brows are too light.  Use the correct color pencil, gel, powder whatever you choose, it still needs to match the hair.  An alternate option is having them tinted.
3.  Don't allow you stylist, esthetician, nail tech, cosmetologist, whomever is doing your brows, to over wax to the point you have thin lines.  Unless thin lines are what you like, but many people prefer to have a great natural look that frames the face well.
4.  There are many things that people say help grow the brows.  I have heard Castor oil, black castor oil, Vitamin A, Ingesting more protein, multivitamins.  My opinion they all seem to work pretty well anything that can help the hair grow usually helps the brows grow also.  It is hair and has a shaft, but has been plucked, waxed many times to the point it is possible it may not grow back in some areas.  Another good reason not to over do it.


I will do a post on this in the future, but just to add.  Permanent Makeup  if you have had your brows done in the past & they are fading you will NEED to get it re-done.  If you plan on doing it in general make sure you choose someone that does a quality job.  It is noticeable if it isn't quality, so it is worth the investment to get it done right.
