Easy Eyebrows

Hey Guys,
Here is a easy way to do your eyebrows, along with some tips and hints to make things easier and help you as much as I can :)

Now remember it is best to keep your eyebrows as natural as possible. Some eyebrows will only need a few stray hairs removed. Some may need re-shaping, especially if they are thick and bushy, if this is the case i would wax first to get rid of the bulk of hair.
Tip: Don't attempt to only tweeze bushy thick eyebrows, this is lengthy and can become painful!

Lets get started!
You will need:
-Wax (optional)
-Tweezers
-Ruler (or something straight to measure)
-Eye Pencil


A - This is where Tweezing should start.

B - This is the 'Apex' or 'Arch' where the Highest point of the brow should be.

C - This is the minimum length of the brow.

Tip: To ensure you measure accurately, use a 'Ruler' or something straight, even another eye pencil. between A&B should be the thickest part of the brow.




1. Hold your ruler against the flare of the nose and line it up with your 'tear duct' and mark your brow with your eye pencil to indicate point 'A'.
-remove all stray hairs before the mark made in point A, remove stray hairs from under the brow in between point A & B.
Tip: do not remove to many hairs from this area it should be the thickest part of the brow, removing to many hairs can give a Surprised look to your face and be hard to undo.

2. Place the Ruler diagonally from the 'Flare of the nose' to the 'edge of the eye' and mark with your eye pencil to indicate point 'C'.
- remove all hairs outside of point C, remove al stray hairs under the bulk of the brow in between point B & C.


3. Look directly ahead (Tip: use a mirror for this step if you are shaping your own eye brows.) hold your ruler to the 'flare of the nose' and line it with to your 'edge of iris'. Place a dot above the brown to mark the 'Apex' or 'Arch' as indicated in 'B'.
- point B should be the highest point of the brow, tweeze tray hairs to create definition to the natural arch. Tip: depending on your desired look may choose not to remove many hairs from this point to keep it natural looking.

Hints:
-Avoid over-tweezing above the brow. A few stray hairs are fine to remove but taking to much can leave an unnatural look to the brow.
-using an old tooth brush or brow comb, brush the eyebrows upwars and trim any long hairs, this will create a neat look, avoid removing long hairs as this ca create a patchy look!
