Easy Steps To Get Well-Groomed Brows

• Step 1: Start by preparing your eyebrows for the shave. First, you need to take a warm shower so that the hairs on your brows become loose. When you use lukewarm water for bathing, the steam from the shower gently opens the hair follicles as well as the pores present around them. As a result, it becomes easier to trim the strands and shape up the brows correctly.
• Step 2: Now, moisturize the area surrounding your brows. You can use a regular facial moisturizer or even the daily moisturizer that you use for your body. Apply it over the creases of your eyes and the upper part of your brows. The skin between the brows should also be covered by it. It will provide protection to your skin during the shaving. Moreover, the hair strands will get a bit plumper, which will make the process effortless.
• Step 3: Now, it is time to set a ‘stencil’ for using your eyebrow razor perfectly. You will need an eyebrow pencil (double-ended preferred) for this. In case you do not have a brow pencil, make use of a white pencil and a separate brush or eyebrow comb. Brush both of your brows in an upward direction followed by an extremely dark application of the brow pencil for filling the arches. The areas filled with the pencil should be your guide during the process of shaving. Apply short, feathery strokes and try to be as precise as possible to get the most desired shape.
• Step 4: Your aim should be to trim down anything present outside your ‘stencil’ i.e. the area filled with the brow pencil. As your hair strands are now straight, it will be easy to determine which ones have grown too much and hence need to be shaped.
• Step 5: Once you’re done, start shaping your brows using a razor. Start off by removing the fine hair strands that have been growing between your brows (right over your nose). For this you must grip the razor straight up and use the broad ‘vertical comb attachment’. Make sure that apply small strokes by moving it only from one side to another (horizontal sweep) in the direction opposite to the growth of the hair.
• Step 6: Take a soft towel and wipe the trimmed hair strands off the razor. You also need to change the wide tip of the razor with a smaller one, which is square and rectangular in shape. Now, you are ready to go ahead with the rest of the shaving.
• Step 7: If you have any outgrown hair on the upper parts of your brows (which is a rare case), all you need to do is eliminate them using the eyebrow trimmer. To do this, hold the razor straight down and move it in the direction of your hair growth, along the natural shape of your brows.
• Step 8: Now, shave underneath your brows. You must start from the highest points of the arches and cut off all the stray hair present below them carefully. The razor should be moved along the lower section of the pencilled area in small, tight strokes. It is advised that you apply little pressure while dragging the razor against your skin.
• Step 9: When you are done with shaving both of your eyebrows, take a very close look at them. They should look even and symmetrical from every angle. If there are any stray hair strands sticking out, simply trim them down.
• Step 10: Moving to the final step. The last and final step is all about wiping off the trimmed areas of both your brows with a warm washcloth and applying a brow gel. You can also use an aloe vera gel instead of a brow gel, since it has cooling properties and will help soothe the trimmed area instantly.

DO's and DON'Ts for Accenting Your Eyebrows

Do’s:

• Do find the start and end point of your eyebrow: Before trimming any hair, you must first identify where your eyebrow stops and starts. To do this, take a fine-tooth comb and hold it vertically in the middle of your nostril. Once you’ve identified where your eyebrows should start, you’re going to use a high-quality tweezer and begin plucking any big, rogue hairs in the middle. You should leave a few tiny hairs to make them look natural. To find where your eyebrows should end, take the comb to make a line from the tip of your nose to the outside corner of your eye. Remove any excess hair on the outside of this line.
• Do leave some greys: As tempting as it may be to pluck all your greys, it’s best to leave a few in there. Plucking too many grey hairs will make your brows look sparse. If you have grey hairs in your eyebrows, you probably have them on your head as well. In this case, your eyebrows absolutely should match the colour of your hair.

Don’ts:

• Don’t go overboard: Going too hard with the tweezing can leave you with sparse-looking brows that look worse than before. Start slow and avoid taking too much off. Remember, bushy eyebrows aren’t necessarily a bad thing. So as long as it’s not a unibrow or out of control, embrace your thick brows! All you need is a trim and perhaps a tiny amount of styling cream.
• Don’t get waxed: Waxing usually removes all the fine hairs around your brows and in the middle of your brow. For women, this may look ideal but not much when it comes to men. Leaving a few hairs in strategic places is essential for men. It gives them the manly, yet well-groomed appearance that most regular guys seek.
