Eyebrow thickness. Which one to choose?
Fashion for the thickness of the eyebrows is changing quite rapidly. Even 8 years ago, most women had eyebrows, more like strings. Ruthless hair removal resulted in the fact that when fashion moved to a new level, these same women could no longer grow their eyebrows back completely. No matter how hard they tried, they just didn’t do it, but now the eyebrows simply didn’t grow. The most desperate ones generally shaved them off, and drew new, thinnest threads with an eyebrow pencil. Fortunately, this fashion has long been behind, and it has been replaced by a fashion for naturalness. And here came the turn of those who once complained about their excessive hairiness. And everyone rushed to urgently grow them, wanting to become the owners of thick and wide eyebrows.

It is equally important to choose the right eyebrow color. It's great if your hair is dark and your eyebrows have the same rich color. But after all, there are often situations when a woman’s eyebrows are almost colorless and barely noticeable on her face. It happens that a naturally dark-haired lady decides to radically change and dye her hair blonde or vice versa. In all these cases, it is clearly impossible to do without painting the eyebrows and changing the color given by nature. In order to determine if the harmonyeyebrows look along with hair color, you need to remember the rule. It says that the color of the eyebrows should be 1 tone darker than the hair and 1 tone lighter than the eyelashes.

General rules for successful eyebrow correction
In order for the plucking procedure to be as positive as possible, you need to remember a few important rules:
1. Tweeze your eyebrows only along the bottom edge. It is advisable not to touch the hairs on top at all. The exception is when noticeable hair above the eyebrow spoils the overall appearance of the face.
2. It is important not to forget about the bridge of the nose. If you are generously endowed by mother nature, and eyebrows tend to grow together, then you need to fight this. Sometimes the eyebrows are not obviously fused, but under certain lighting, you can see that some kind of vegetation on the bridge of the nose still exists.
3. Don't forget to disinfect. Hand washing is mandatory before the procedure.
4. Do not blindly follow fashion trends. After all, fashion will pass, and the result, which is difficult to fix, will remain with you. Also, you don’t need to go against everyone and, paying tribute to fashion, do, for example, too wide eyebrows that obviously don’t suit you.
5. You also need to remember that behind the eyebrows, as well as behind the hair, you needcare. Make it a rule that eyebrows should be combed and preferably gelled. If you do not use the gel, then by combing your eyebrow with a thin brush up, you will see which hairs should be trimmed so that they do not bristle.
Following these simple rules and tips, you will learn how to create on your face the most suitable eyebrows for your face type. Remember that a sense of proportion and harmony is important in everything.
