Eyebrows make an important feature of the face and they play a vital role in the overall appearance because they frame the face. Having well maintained and properly plucked eyebrows is vital in order to get that perfect look and here are some tips to help you shape your eyebrows in the right way. Imperfectly shaped eyebrows can make you look really funny and it can even cause you to stay indoors for a few days. This is the reason why most of the women prefer to opt for the best professional service when it comes to shaping the brows. However, it is always best, if you are able to do it rightly on your own because shaping your eyebrows on your own gives you the maximum flexibility.  So, while shaping your eyebrows, keep the following tips in mind and you are most expected to land at the desired result.

Decide the shape of your eyebrow according to the shape of your face

This is the most vital thing to decide before you can start with shaping your eyebrows. You should pick a shape for your eyebrows according to the shape of your face and your eyes. Depending on the shape of your face, a round, straight, thick or thin eyebrow might be best suitable for you. If you have oval, heart or diamond shaped face opt for a slightly curved eyebrow shape and try to maintain the thickness more or less equal throughout the length. On long faces straight and thick eyebrows can look good. Round faces can opt for well curved eyebrows. Also the shape of your eyes should be considered to pick the right shape of the eyebrow.

Get the right tools

An artist can never perform his best unless he is provided with the right tools. So, before you start plucking ensure that you have the right tools at hand that you will need to complete the process. A good quality tweezer with a sharp yet slanted tip is best suggested for girls with less experience in self-tweezing. Apart from the tweezer, you will also need a shaping scissor and an eyebrow brush to complete the job.

Prepare the eyebrows for plucking

Before you start plucking preparing the eyebrows is vital to ensure that the process is not very painful and you can complete it with efficiency. It is always a good idea to pluck your brows immediately after taking a shower. Water softens the hair roots and this is the time when the hairs will come out more easily. To ensure that the eyebrows do not get stuck with each other while plucking, do not apply moisturizer to your face before plucking your brows. You can always use some powder on the eyebrows while plucking, to ensure that they do not stick to the skin.

You might not need the magnifying glass

Many beauty specialists suggest the use of a magnifying glass to pluck your brows. However, using a magnifying glass can make it really difficult for you to understand how exactly it is looking, which can cause over plucking that cannot be reversed.  Hence using a normal mirror in a well-lighted room is the best we can suggest. Always takea look from a distance at the eyebrow shape after you have plucked out few hairs and before continuing.

Create an outline

If you are new to shaping your eyebrows on your own, it is best suggested to outline the wanted shape of your brows with a light colored brow pencil first. This can be very helpful to ensure that you pluck only the hairs that have grown outside the shape and will also make sure that you will reach closest to your expected eyebrow shape.

Use the shaping scissor only after you have brushed the eyebrows

Once you have removed the hairs grown outside the shaping lines now you should brush the eyebrows straight and then only you can cut off the hairs that have grown outside the line, with the shaping scissor. While using the shaping scissor it is best suggested to complete the cut at a single stretch, otherwise there can be unevenness. While using the scissor, always make sure that you are using the scissor at the right place of your eyebrow and you are chopping off only the excess length of the hairs.

If you have a sensitive skin it is most expected that you might experience bruising, redness and inflammation along with pain in the eyebrow region after plucking your eyebrows. So, once you complete, follow with rubbing some ice cube in the region. It will ease the pain, inflammation and also the redness of the skin.
