Do you sport the WHOOPI?

O.C.D.

:::INTERVENTION!:::

1. Go to a specialist (eyebrow threader or waxer) and get them professionally shaped. – It will be easier for you to continue to groom your eyebrows and imitate the way it’s done by the professional.

2. Don’t draw in your eyebrow. Fill it into the hairlines. (J’s advice – use eyebrow powder or eyeshadow with an angled brush.)

3. When filling in your eyebrows, make sure to extend out a little bit over your eye. To figure out where to draw the end of your brow to, use a pencil from the flare of your nose to the outer corner of your eye. Where the end lands of the pencil, is where your brow should be drawn to.

4. Use a shade that’s one shade lighter than your natural hair.

5. The rounder your face, the more arch you want in your eyebrow. This applies the opposite if you have more of a narrow face. You want to keep your eyebrows rounder or straighter to give it the softer look. (to counterbalance each other. If your face is narrow you don’t want everything on your face to look angular)

6. When plucking, step back from the mirror every few strands to make sure your eyebrows are even. When you’re so close up, you don’t see the full picture which leads to OVERPLUCKED EYEBROWS. (J’s tweezer pick = TWEEZERMAN)

7. You don’t want your eyebrows to be too far above your eye. If plucking on the bottom hairline of your brows brings about the joker look .. then STOP! It’s ok to pluck on the upper hairline of your brows.

8. When plucking the UNIBROW, make sure your brow starts from right above your nose flare. If you go further inwards, you will give off the illusion that your nose is wider that it really is.
