The thought of getting my eyebrows shaped by a piece of string sounds horrible its not as bad if you are using that method instead of waxing. I'm very old fashion so waxing and plucking here and there is just fine for southern girl like me. The importance of well shaped eyebrows can make a person look totally incredible the right shape and shade says a whole lot. You don't have to splurge on make-up artists to get the right shape many nail salons and spas have that service for reasonable price. If you decide to do them yourself here are a few tips.

1.   Arch the Right Way: Lots of us pluck the arch of our brows into the wrong place and that works against us in order to get a nice shape take the pencil and hold it parallel to the outer edge of your iris. The point where the pencil hits your brow is where your arch should begin.

2. Stopping Point: Your eyebrows should end at the same place where your brow bone does.

3. Tweezers Problems:  Over-plucking is a bad idea you should tweeze only once every three weeks, remember when you do pluck, pull out only one hair at a time.

4. Shade: Don't choose the wrong shaded pick a color that's will blend with your hair color.
