How To Tweeze Eyebrows

Tweezing Eyebrows Frame The Windows To Your Face

Unfortunately the majority of us don't have the perfect shaped face in terms of what the fashion industry dictate ,but we can look fantastic ,sometimes even better with the right tools and the right know how!

Just like a good picture frame ,creating an illusion is more than halfway to capturing beautiful scenery.

As a guide ,if your hair is straight and your features refined ie slender nose ,smallish mouth ,then your eyebrows look best thin and refined too.
The thicker of more volume the hair and larger the face ..so to allow thicker eyebrows...

How to tweeze your eyebrows

NEVER pluck above your natural eyebrow line ,for this is your natural eyebrow shape,therefore base-line.

Begin at the middle of your brow and work outwards. Grab the hair as close to the root as possible because it is thicker closer to the roots,a cleaner removal ,slowing down regrowth.
Always pluck in the direction the hair grows in. How to pluck those stray hairs between your brows ? Just tweeze them out, for pretty definition of two separate eye-brows.

Types Of Tweezers For Good Eyebrow Shaping

 Eyebrows, beautifully shaped will frame and highlight your eyes. Adding glamourous cosmetics will further uluminate your face.

Tweezers are your best friend to achieve expert shaped eyebrows. There are many different types ,shapes of tweezers you can buy. Beginning price from a couple of dollars to the more expensive brands.

Slanted tips ,generally best for overall performance ,and easy to control.

Flat-headed,good for tweezing multiple hairs,I find a good pair of these saves time and once you know what youre doing are useful.

Shaped eyebrows not only enhance your best features,but freshens and brings any face alive.

Super-pointed(like the slanted) are great for removing stubborn ingrown hairs ,which by the way are caused by previous inefficient tweezing normally.

There are several varieties and brands ,some work better than others an sometimes its a matter of personal choice.

Comfortable grip,especially if you opt for one of the more expensive brands is a good tip to remember too ,since shaping eyebrows does depend on tweezing those all those fine hairs ,and a good grip with a sharp quick pull action is recommended.


Eye brow Shapes To Tweeze

Helpful Eyebrow Shaping Tips

Tweezing after a shower is easier since the follicle pores are open and the hair will be less resistant.

Gently numb the eyebrow area with an ice-cube before plucking, if you feel uncomfortable .

Brush your eyebrows with a toothbrush before plucking them using some hair spray. Make sure you use good lighting, sunlight is a good light if that's possible.

Eyebrow Shape for a Round Faces
For those women, who have a round face or heart shaped, the best shape of the eyebrows is an angular shape. To emphasize eyes,and compliment the face.

Round Eyebrows for a Wide Forehead
Women with large eyes and wide forehead should shape their brows round. Such brows should taper gently at the end and follow the frontal bone.

Low Arched Brow Shape for a Small Forehead
Women having small forehead should pluck their eyebrows to the low arched shape. This eyebrow shape brings elongates the face shape.

Eyebrow Shape for Round Cheeks
If a woman has round cheeks or wider jaws, their brow should have an arched shape. This brings visual harmony to the face with one larger and most visible part.

Whatever eyebrow shape you choose, remember one simple rule: if you have small delicate features, you should pluck your brows to a delicate shape as well.

And always follow the natural line of your eye brow line if unsure, better too under pluck ,then to over pluck

What do you recommend for DUDES like me??? I did shave me eyebrows once when I became a novice monk when I was a teenager. I had to shave EVERYTHING. It took a while for everything to grow back and when it did, it did with a vengeance!

Ladies, please PLE-E-EASE don't pluck your eyebrows down to a thin line a-la Pamela Anderson. It is not attractive, and it lends an air of falseness and, often, an ill-tempered or stingy appearance. Brows are meant to add 'structure' to the face and frame your eyes beautifully.

Hi UW There are so many great products available, http://www.lauramercier.com/products/colour/eyes/# have grabbed one from my files that looks great. And there is also the option of having them dyed, which lasts about 12 weeks...my sister had it done ,looked very proffessional too.

Hi Dohn

I would never recommend shaving eyebrows , Ive seen some girls in the 80's who would shave half the eyebrow then color the rest , I just never figured out why, it looked really wierd, imagine having to draw on eyebrows single everyday ,lol.

I think on a guy they look fine bushy , but just like in the video ,you can brush upward (clean toothbrush works) and carefully trim straggly bushy hair, then repeat brushing the eyebrow hairs down.

Great hub! My daughter does mine!

Funny thing...one day my son sat down at the dinner table and his eyebrows looked rather strange (he has very thick eyebrows and his sister had been teasing him about a uni brow), the poor poor boy - used his sister's razor and shaved his eyebrows a tad bit too far LOL

I used to know this girl that used to tweeze her eyebrows like mad. And she was good too. Everytime a different look on her eyebrows. Sometimes she would look Oriental, another time she would go with this Greek goddess look. Always blew the guys away. I'm not too hot about make-up, but that chick, she used to rear me in, you dig. And she had this crazy stuff, she'll do, like wink with her left eye at me. Gawd, that stuff used to kill me! Honestly, beautiful women kill me with their eyes. Especially when they wink, that's the worst you could do - wink at me. No friggin' kidding! :)

I just can't. I never did it before until a dear friend wanted to tweeze them so bad. I almost cried. I'll keep them natural.

RGraf, I understand your decision not to tweeze, it can be painful and just not worth it to some people. Im sure you look perfectly wonderful a la naturale!

I only have my eyebrows plucked TWICE (the second time before I got married) and everybody commented on it. Plucking eyebrows is less painful than removing other facial hairs, believe me. Both of those times, a professional did it. And to be honest, I don't really know if I can. That's why my eyebrows are back to their old shape =).

I have a friend who have invincible eyebrows (for UW). What she did was she had her eyebrows permanently tattooed! So she perpetually looks like she has well-shaped perfectly made-up eyebrows.
