How to get sleek eyebrows? - Beauty & Cosmetics Message Board

I pluck my eyebrows and I occasionally get them waxed. My eyebrows are a little bushy..well the outline of them is sort of jagged and not sleek and smooth...make sense? Is there are tips on what to do or how to pluck them differently? Thanks.

I would suggest going to a pro and getting them shaped.. they can carefully trim them so they are both even. I know a lot of people who like to get their eyebrows done every now and then and do as much upkeeping as they can in between. My eyebrows don't grow any thicker than I fix them to, and I only pluck stray hairs under my arch, so I just do it myself. Sometimes I will find that they don't match PERFECTLY and I use an eyebrow powder (mine is from Maybelline.. makes mine a little more filled in too for the sparse parts) and comb them each so they match. Clear mascara also works well to keep the hairs in place.

I agree. Have a pro shape them.

Hi I have very thick bushey dark brows, I used to pluck them so that they were thin, but now I like the natural brow look. What I do is I condition them when I condition my hair, then I sleek them into shape with gel. If there are any wavy unruly ones, they are the ones I pluck out, and any under the brow bone.
