Eyebrows

Eyebrows frame your face and give it character. Some people are born with naturally full, shaped perfect brows. While others are left to draw on or fill in their sparse, light brows. Some people even tattoo on their eyebrows! Talk about dedication. For people who are not so married to the idea of something permanent on their face, but have the time and dedication to draw them on everyday I applaud. I went through the phase of trying to do that but I had decided that my brows were fine as they were and focused more on shaping them and keeping them nicely groomed. Every person has a different preference to shape and even to color of them. Some may like a more arched brow, others more of a line, some full, some thin, some natural, some perfect. Some go for a more dramatic look and will go for a higher arch and a sharper cleaner brow all around. Only true makeup junkies are seriously concerned with filling in their brows to perfection it is a sort of art/skill that takes a while to perfect and conquer and can be time consuming. Most people that dye their hair do not realize how much your natural brow color and new color of their hair will differ. This is where some people actually lighten/darken their brows and dye them along with their hair. This is also where powder/gel or whatever alternatives for filing them in will come in handy. Some people believe that brows complete the look or “You’re are not ready until you’re brows are ready” or “it’s going to be a bad day if it’s a bad brow day.” Some people are gifted enough to be able to do their brows themselves, whether it be tweezing, waxing, threading or a combination. Others (like myself) have to find the right person that they like and trust to be able to do their brows how they like them! The right shape can make all the difference. The fun thing about brows and makeup in general is that you can change them up whenever you feel like it (unless you went the permanent route). You can try out new shapes and colors and the majority of the time they will grow back. But if you aren't feeling that risky again all you have to do is draw them on for a whole different look or you just fill them in sparsely or not at all for a natural look.
