How to change eyebrows: unruly, ugly, shaggy, hard, thinning, bio-styling, photos and videos

Not all girls can boast of their natural eyebrows. Most often, the reason is their irregular shape and dull shade. Such factors force the fair sex to look for ways to give their eyebrows richness, a suitable bend and color.

Let's look at the most popular methods of eyebrow correction, as well as the disadvantages and advantages of each method.

Eyebrows of the correct shape and the right shade can make your look more expressive.

In what ways can you change your eyebrows?

The most suitable methods for correcting eyebrows of different types

Of course, I would like to note that to give your eyebrows the correct shape, it is best to go to a beauty salon. This is far from groundless advice, since a professional with extensive experience can change the shape of your eyebrows as successfully as possible. They are selected taking into account the features of your appearance, and as a result, new eyebrows will decorate you as much as possible.

Shapeless and shaggy eyebrows need correction and creation of clear contours

But if you don't have the time or opportunity to visit a professional makeup artist, you can resort to DIY changes. To do this, of course, you need to have a certain amount of knowledge and skills, to know the intricacies of the correction procedure.

Step-by-step instructions for the procedure:

Prepare and disinfect the instruments (if there is no special antiseptic, you can use alcohol or chlorhexidine for this).
Choose a place where you will cut your eyebrows, observing the lighting rules.
Remove hair from your forehead. Cleanse your brows with an oil-free makeup remover, such as Innovator Cosmetics Micellar Water.
Outline the desired eyebrow contour with a special paste or cosmetic pencil.
Comb all hairs up.
Carefully shorten the hairs that extend beyond the drawn line by more than 1-2 mm (depending on the desired effect).
Then comb the hairs down and remove the excess again with the tips of special scissors.
Comb the hairs in the direction of growth and evaluate the result.

Eyebrow shaping at home

Photo of the correct shape of the arches

Shaggy eyebrows that do not have a specific shape have long gone out of fashion. Owners of thick arches are very lucky, because to give them the desired shape, it is enough to pluck out excess hairs. Girls with thin or light eyebrows have nothing to pluck, so all that remains is to use paint or a cosmetic pencil, or get a permanent tattoo.

Advice! If you decide to correct the shape of your eyebrows yourself, remember that incorrect actions can distort the perception of your face. That is why for the first fundamental change it is best to contact a specialist.

Tweezers are the standard way to pluck hairs.

Using tweezers is the easiest way to remove unwanted hairs

To make the first correction successful, follow these tips:

Before the procedure, decide on the most suitable arch shape. You can use a cosmetic pencil to experiment with your future shape.
Having decided on the shape of the arc, draw the boundaries with a pencil.
Don’t get too carried away with hair removal, as too thin eyebrows are no longer in fashion.
Don't try to radically change your eyebrows without the skill and experience in caring for them. To begin with, it will be enough to remove stray and individual hairs around and make the shape more well-groomed and neat.

A regular pencil will help you correctly determine the boundaries of your eyebrows.

To determine the arc size:

Place the pencil vertically across the side of your nose (on both sides). The intersection of the eyebrow and pencil marks the beginning of the arch. If your eyebrows extend beyond this point, their length needs to be reduced.
Draw a visual line with a pencil from the wing of the nose to the outer corner of the eye. In this way you will find the end of the arc.

Note! If you have wide-set eyes, then the standard method will not work for you. You can find out where the arch should end by placing a pencil vertically at the highest point of the cheekbone.

Place the pencil on the tip of your nose and position it so that it goes through the pupil. The intersection of the arch and the hairs will help you find the point of its bend.

Sequence of actions when correcting eyebrows with tweezers

Advantages of the method:

Using tweezers is suitable for correcting the shape of the eyebrows by removing a small amount of hair.
Tweezers allow you to get the most accurate results.
This method does not require any extra costs. The only thing you will need to spend money on is purchasing the tweezers themselves. The price of a classic instrument of good quality starts from 150 rubles. and is moving towards an increase, you can find tweezers cheaper, but as experience shows, they do not last long.
Allows you to easily thin your eyebrows.

The method has certain disadvantages:

If you pluck hairs inappropriately, they may break or begin to grow ingrown.
On sensitive skin, using tweezers may cause redness.
Not suitable for large areas of hair as the process is painful, tedious and quite slow.

One disadvantage of this method can be eliminated, namely the painfulness of the procedure. You can reduce skin sensitivity in the following ways:

If during the procedure you slightly stretch the skin upward. Such manipulations will reduce pain.
You can look for special pain-relieving creams in cosmetic stores. Practice shows that these products complicate the procedure, because the hairs begin to slip.
The best method to choose is a warm compress on the skin. This is the most pleasant way to make hair removal painless.
It is worth trying to apply an ice cube to the skin for a few seconds and sensitivity to pain will decrease. This method is not as pleasant as a warm compress, as it may cause a slight tingling sensation on the skin.

Using thread to remove hairs

Hair removal with threads in cosmetology is called threading epilation.

To conduct trading, you need to take:

skein of cotton threads;
cotton pads;
brush.

Instructions on how to prepare the thread for hair removal

The index and thumb of both hands are placed in two loops of twisted thread. Hair removal with thread is much more difficult than with tweezers. The fingers on one hand alternately close and open on the other, while the place of twisting moves.

To remove hairs, you need to place them in one of the triangles and make a sharp movement with your fingers (epilation should be carried out against hair growth). When the hair gets into the place where the thread is twisted, it is removed.

Instructions for using eyebrow thread

We invite you to familiarize yourself with the advantages of trading:

Hair removal with thread does not have a negative effect on the skin and does not damage it.
This method is superior to other methods in terms of hygiene.
The procedure for removing unnecessary eyebrow hairs is much faster than using other methods.
Low cost of material for the procedure.
Very convenient to use when traveling.

There are also certain disadvantages of trading:

The procedure may seem more painful than other hair removal methods due to the fact that the thread can catch several hairs at the same time.
If threading is done incorrectly, the hairs may not be removed, but rather torn.
Stinging may occur during hair removal due to friction of the thread against the skin.

Getting rid of unwanted hair with wax

Waxing allows you to achieve smooth skin for a longer period

You can remove excess hair using wax strips. To do this, you need to apply wax to an area of skin and, using a special strip, remove it with a sharp movement against hair growth.

This method has the following advantages:

Allows correction to be made less frequently (every 4-6 weeks).
This method allows you to perfectly correct rapidly growing, thick and rigid eyebrows.
After regular use of wax, the hair becomes thinner.

Note! This method requires maximum care and precision, especially if your eyebrows are bushy. The fact is that by making an inappropriate arch shape, or accidentally catching extra hairs, you will have to wait a very long time for new ones to grow.

Such manipulations have the following disadvantages:

Improper waxing can cause burns. This can cause blisters and then leave scars.
Leftover wax or wax remover can cause irritation.
It is very difficult to give eyebrows the desired shape. During manipulations with wax, the necessary hairs may stick, which will also be torn out.

Using cosmetic pencil and paint

The cosmetic pencil is popular due to its low cost and the fact that it allows you to experiment with the shape of your eyebrows.

Sometimes tinting your natural eyebrows is a great way to make them brighter and more expressive, and you can make this a reality with a pencil or paint. Their difference is in the duration of the effect: in the first case, the result lasts only a day, and high-quality paint allows you to forget about coloring for an average of a month.

Advice! If you have naturally blond hair, don’t rush to use black dye or pencil so that people don’t say behind your back that you have ugly eyebrows.

I would like to recommend the following paints:

Enigma from ESTEL. This paint costs about 300 rubles and is considered professional. It is good because it has a rich palette of shades and is suitable for sensitive skin.
ROCKOLOR. You can find this paint at a price of 50-70 rubles. The advantages of this product are: hypoallergenic composition, low price, economical use.

Bio-styling of eyebrows will help to fix the result, which will not allow your hairs to stick out in different directions. The cost of the service in Russia varies from 750 to 1500 rubles; in Ukrainian salons you can do this procedure for 150-170 UAH.

Eyebrow gel tinting

This coloring method is perfect for those who have unruly eyebrows that stick out in different directions. In addition to the coloring effect, the gel allows you to style your hair the way you want. Thanks to this product, there is no need to trim long hairs.

How to fix eyebrows with gel: sequence of actions

Eyebrow styling can be done either with a tinted gel or completely transparent, it all depends on what result you want to achieve. The tinting agent allows you to make the color of the eyebrows more saturated, and the transparent gel helps to give the desired shape to the arch without changing its color.

Before styling your eyebrows with this product, you need to choose the most suitable gel for yourself:

We advise you to pay attention to the coloring product of the IsaDora brand (price 600 rubles), which is very easy to use and keeps the shape of the eyebrows all day long and does not fall off;
Another very convenient coloring product worth attention is BeYu gel (price 600 rubles or 180-200 UAH) due to its amazing hold and comfortable brush.

How to grow eyebrows where they don't grow?

First of all, in order for eyebrows to grow faster and thicker, they need careful care!

Clean your eyebrows of makeup every day, comb them and don’t forget about scrubbing - hairs grow better on clean and fresh skin.

Eyebrow massage is also an effective remedy. With more intense blood circulation, hairs will grow faster and thicker. It is enough to massage the eyebrows in a circular motion from the bridge of the nose to the tips along the hair growth line. Massage should be done daily for at least 5-10 minutes.

Why is it better to go to a salon?

If you are still in doubt about whether to cut your hair, we advise you to still find the opportunity to contact a professional eyebrow stylist. He will be able to advise whether this procedure is appropriate for you. She will also give valuable advice on eyebrow care.

Contacting a specialist significantly reduces the risk of cutting off excess hair. A professional master already has all the special tools - the right scissors, clippers, trimmers, combing brushes, and so on. In addition to (or instead of) cutting your eyebrows, you can immediately carry out long-term styling, coloring or bio-tattooing.

If you have already trimmed your eyebrows yourself and you are not satisfied with the result, an experienced hairdresser will help correct the situation and make your eyebrows healthy, well-groomed and voluminous.
