What’s Brow Mapping

Whether you’re just cleaning out excess hair or shaping different eyebrow shapes to suit your face, it’s important to
identify the three key parts of your eyebrow pencil and mark them with your brow pencil. This will make the process so
much easier.
Start: Begin by placing your brow pencil vertically at the middle of each nostril and then mark the starting spot of your
eyebrows.
Middle: Pivot the pencil from the side of your nose, to find the midpoint or arch of your eyebrow.
End: Finally angle the pencil from the side of your nose to the outer corner of your eye to find the tail of your eyebrows.

Different Ways to Shape Your Eyebrows
Well wondering about how shaping eyebrows at home can be a hectic job? You don’t have to think anymore as here’s a
step by step guide into shaping different eyebrow shapes at home in different ways. All you have to do is pick your
method and get on with the task and in no time your job of eyebrow shaping at home is completed.
Eyebrow Threading
This is the most common way of shaping eyebrows which can also be done at home. If this is your first time threading
your brows at home, take it slow and don’t rush.
Products You Need:
 Sewing Thread (11 inches)
 Use of Fingers
How to Shape Eyebrows with Thread?

 Take a piece of sewing thread about 11 inches long and tied at the ends to make a loop.
 Insert your index finger and thumb from both hands in the loop and twist the loop with the fingers on one hand 4
to 5 times. You should end up with a bow-tie shape, check image below for reference.

 Place your index finger and thumb inside the loop while making sure that the knot is on your fingers and
not in the middle.
 Now comes the tricky part. Keeping the fingers of one hand pinched together, move the fingers on your
other hand. The loop's centre twist will slide up and down when you increase and decrease the distance
between your index finger and thumb.
 This motion will help pull out the hair. But remember to NOT pull it in the same direction as your hair
growth.
 Place one hand above your brow and the other below. The hand below will be used to move the thread.
 Next, place the hair you want to remove in the 'V' part of the loop and move your fingers on the hand
that's below the brow. This will move the twist over the hair and thus pull it out.

 Remember to only keep the excess hair you want to remove in the twist to avoid accidentally pulling out
the other hair.
 This method takes a lot of time and precision so be sure to not rush the process.
Eyebrow Plucking
This has been the next method to create eyebrow shapes at home. Eyebrow plucking hasn't been popular but people
prefer it more than twisted threading. If you are choosing this method, just follow the given instructions and you are ready
to begin.
Products You Need:
 Tweezer
 Scissor
How to Shape Eyebrows with Eyebrow Plucking?

 If you’re shaping your eyebrows with tweezers, first, create a clear outline using your brow pencil.
 Then, tweeze any strands outside the desired shape from the root to avoid breakage. Be sure to do this carefully
to avoid over-plucking.
 Experts recommend tweezing both eyebrows at the same time – 2-3 hairs on one, then the same amount on the
other side, so it is easier to achieve symmetry.
 Whichever method you choose, once you're done, make sure to use an aloe gel or an ice pack to soothe the skin
and avoid any irritation.
 Voila! Perfectly tamed brows without going to the salon.
 Now you no longer need to hide your face during those video calls.
Eyebrow Waxing
Why only try out old traditional methods on answering how to shape your eyebrows at home? When you can try this
entirely different and interesting method. You can create and make qualitative eyebrow shapes at home by just using wax.
Products You Need:
 Wax
 Dusting Powder
 Lotion
How to Shape Eyebrows with Eyebrow Waxing?
 Before starting out, the skin should be greased with lotion and a little powder with talcum powder so that hot wax
glides easily.
 Heat the wax to a temperature of 37 degrees should be applied with a thin wooden stick to a small area for hair
growth and pressed with a finger to better fix the hairs.
 Let the wax settle down for a few seconds, and attach a paper strip to it, holding the skin with the other hand.
 Once the paper is pressed smoothly, remove the mass against hair growth.
 After this procedure, treat the skin with talcum powder to prevent irritation.
How to Shape Thick Eyebrows

Those with thick messy eyebrows might have a lot of grooming and tweezing to do to keep them looking neat. If you have
looked for an answer for this question “how to shape eyebrows for beginners?” Even though you have thick eyebrows,
keep on reading.
Begin by removing the hair from the start of your eyebrow, once you're done carefully move to the top of your brow
keeping in mind the arch and once you're done with the top, move under the arch and finally remove the stray strands at
the end of your eyebrow. Repeat this process on the other side as well making sure that both eyebrows are even. This will
help give your brows a more defined eyebrow shape.
How To Shape Thin Eyebrows

Doing eyebrows at home can be challenging when you don’t know how to go about it. Whether you have thin or thick
eyebrows, it’s a risky job because if you don’t know the method or you don’t have the right knowledge, your efforts can go
in vain.
For those with thin eyebrows, this might be a quick but tricky process. You need to be sure to only remove the excess
strands of hair in order to not make your eyebrows thinner than they already are. All you have to do is apply some brow
gel to lay the hair flat and then remove any stray strands on the bottom and at the edge of your eyebrows.
