Re: Do you shape your own brows?

Yes, I remove strays with tweezers and fill-in the sparse areas with a brow pencil. I get hair where I don't want it and lose it where I want it. LOL

Re: Do you shape your own brows?

I haven't used a pencil in a long time. You ladies have inspired me to revisit that and take more time when I have it to concentrate some more effort into my brows. I need to tweeze but am scared to. Most advice says don't tweeze!

@everyone
Does using these to clean up around the brow are ( over AND under) harm the delicate skin there? 😕🥺
I'm thinking that using this would clean up my brow area quicker and look better as well. What do y'all think?

Re: Do you shape your own brows?

Yes I do. I use a small pair of scissors, a fine tiny spooly brush and tweezers. Had my brows done once ---and the girl said they looked pretty good without the waxing. In 2012, when I lost all my hair due to chemo, I used a brow stencil for outlining my brows but that was too difficult to try to hold still  and get an even brow, so I free handed them and got very good at beautiful brows. To this day I do my brows before I go anywhere,, --have hair back now but my brows are not the same--kind of whimpy--but they do loook good. Just takes practice

Re: Do you shape your own brows?

As a teen, I had thick brows.  I shaped them with hot wax.

 

I should have gotten the center closer to my nose, but it's not noticeable with bangs.
