"Your eyebrows are sisters, not twins."


What frames your face? Eyebrows. 
What people don't often realize is the power of perfect eyebrows. Some people turn to waxing, threading, over plucking, tattooing, even shaving off the whole brow and drawing it on every single day.
Yikes! 
Is to possible to achieve the perfect brows? Yes and no. 
The perfect brow shape for someone else is not necessarily the best shape for you. You are born with a different brow shape than your best friend.  Here are some examples of different eyebrow shapes.

So how can you achieve your perfect brows? Here are some tips to think about for next time. 
DO:
First: This may be difficult to do, but you need to let your eyebrows grow in. I know you may think you look like a hairy beast, but chances are you don't look too bad.
Second: Once you've grown your brows for about 4-5 weeks, go to an eyebrow PROFESSIONAL!!! I cannot stress how much you should see a professional. It may be pricey, depending on where you go (ranges form about $20-$30). I know it's not in everyones budget, but it's an important step in achieving your perfect brows. 
Third: Learn how to fill in your own brows. Although not everyone uses this step, it does look good when your eyebrows are filled in. 
DON'T:
First: DO NOT OVER PLUCK!!!!! You will look dumb. Do not shave them off or tattoo them on.
Second: Do not let your friend who has no experience, do your eyebrows.
Third: Do not overfill them in, then you'll look like a mess.
Six simple tips to get your best brows.
TIP: I recently visit ULTA and I went to the benefit brow bar. What is the benefit brow bar? They shape and wax your brows in order to reach your brows full potential. It is $20 but they cleanse and shape and fill in your brows. It's soo worth it, I promise.
