Shaping eyebrows
As a beautymaker, it is your responsibility to bring out the best in your clients' natural features and enhance their beauty. One of the most important techniques to define and enhance the face is eyebrow design. Well-shaped eyebrows not only add expression and definition, but can also visually lift and rejuvenate the face. In this guide, we will discuss the art of eyebrow design and important techniques for measuring and shaping.
- Measuring your eyebrows:
Before we begin the actual design, it's crucial to determine the correct proportions of your eyebrows. Here are the steps to measure your eyebrows quickly and accurately:
(a) Beginning of the eyebrow: Determine the center of the bridge of the nose first. The inner corner of the eye and the wing of the nose should form a line.
(b) Highest point of your eyebrow (apex): This point is on the straight line between the wing of the nose and the pupil.
(c) End of your eye brow: The line from the wing of your nose to the outer corner of your eye defines the end of your eyebrow. - Check proportions:
Once we have measured the basic points, we check the proportions of the eyebrows using the tried and tested 2:1 measuring method:
- Divide the eyebrow into three sections: The body of the eyebrow should be twice as long (2/3) as the tail (1/3).
- Determine the distance from the eye to the eyebrow arch. The fixed eyelid should be twice as large (2/3) as the movable eyelid (1/3). - Correct width:
The width of your eyebrow should be approximately half the width of your iris.
Additional tips for the perfect eyebrow design:
Use an eyebrow brush to shape the hairs before you start plucking. Pluck the eyebrows in the direction of the hair growth to avoid irritation and achieve a natural look.We hope this guide has helped you to better understand the art of eyebrow design and improve your skills as a beautymaker.
