How to Shape Your Eyebrows – Easy Eyebrow Shaping: Well-groomed eyebrows help you look attractive, polished and pulled together with minimal effort.
The first time I ever had my eyebrows professionally shaped, my mom took one look at me and said it was the best money I had ever spent. A well-groomed eyebrow is a shortcut to a pulled together look: it can balance out your features and make you look more polished and awake.
Finding the right shape for you, however, can be a little tricky. I checked in with the experts at the Shobha Salon in New York for advice:
- If you have a round face, a high-arched, angular brow will make your face look thinner.
- Conversely, if you have a long face, a more horizontal eyebrow with an arch that is further out towards your hairline will
- make your face appear fuller.
- A heart-shaped or square face is balanced out by round eyebrows.
- To minimize a large nose, aim for highly arched, dark or thick eyebrows.
- Eyes will look larger with thin, angled brows.
- Rounder brows will soften a sharp or pointy chin.
- Large eyes are more proportional with thicker, dark colored brows.
- If you wear glasses, pick a pair that matches the shape of your brow, instead of attempting to make your brow match the frames.
