    A more angular and polished brow. On a round face shape, an angular and more shaped brow will give definition to your face and eye shape. Adding more of an arch and maintaining the shape monthly will greatly benefit someone with a more round face shape.

    My eyebrows are very thick and I don't like them, but I can't go to a professional salon or anything like that. I tried the toothbrush as a comb, but it did not work at all, what do I do?
    Community Answer
    Remember there is nothing wrong with bushy brows, and many people (myself included) think that thick brows are quite beautiful. However, if that is your personal preference, then I would recommend first drawing out the basic shape you want your eyebrow to follow, making sure to follow the natural brow line and arch. Then comb them up and use small scissors or an eyebrow razor to cut only the hairs. Leave the hairs, just cut them shorter. This will prevent any flare ups that might occur from plucking or directly shaving the hair.

    I had a lid and brow lift which only lifted the outside half of my brows which changed their shape. How can I get my old brow arch back?

    You changed the way the skin sits on your face, so you're not going to get your old brow shape back. You can use brow shaping makeup to fill in the shape.

    The inside of my brow sticks straight up for about half of an inch. Then, it suddenly goes more normal, but it is still messy and impossible to tame. What should I do if I don't want to go to a pro?
    Community Answer
    Watch YouTube tutorials and try waxing them yourself, or begin the painful job of plucking them.

    How do I stop my eyebrows from getting messy when I swim?
    Community Answer
    There's not much you can do about while you're swimming. After swimming, you can style your eyebrows with an eyebrow brush or a clean toothbrush.
