By correcting the eyebrow line, you can give your face expressiveness and a certain attractiveness. But often on my own in pursuit of fashion trends You can choose the wrong form and get an unsatisfactory result. Ignorance of the basic rules of correction leads to such results. Therefore, before plucking hairs, you need to prepare a little, and first of all, find out what types of eyebrows there are.
- Head – originates directly from the bridge of the nose;
- Body – middle part;
- The tail is the narrowest part that tapers towards the temple.
Determining the shape of the eyebrows is quite simple; you need to position a ruler or pencil so as to connect the head and tail of the eyebrows with an even line. It can be parallel to the floor (straight), ascending or descending.
- Straight. The head and tail of the eyebrow are located at the same level. This shape is perfect for long face shapes. It will visually widen a narrow forehead and balance it with the chin;
- Rising. The head is located higher than the tail of the eyebrow. This shape will visually narrow and lengthen your face a little.
IMPORTANT: When choosing this form, the main thing is not to overdo it, since too ascending lines look provocative and theatrical.
- Falling down.Base the eyebrow is located lower than its end. This form is very specific and is not suitable for everyone. Often it adds age and gives a sad expression to the face. It is advisable to correct this form.
The following types of eyebrows are also distinguished:
- Rounded. Perfect for those with a wide, square face, they soften their often rough features. This form is often found among oriental beauties;
- Smooth arc. This shape is perfect and always looks great, it suits almost any look. Eyebrows of this shape slightly open the eyelid and help you look more youthful;
- Triangular (“house”, the center of the eyebrow is slightly raised). This shape gives the face a slightly surprised expression, but this is its special charm. By the way, this eyebrow shape is the most natural and most common, but if you wish, you can create it yourself;
- With a breakdown. This shape will also make you visually younger, giving you a more expressive and playful look. Such eyebrows look good on a round face, as they attract the eye to themselves, hiding disproportion and other flaws in the shape of the face.
Physiognomy specialists ( the science that determines a person's character by his facial features) are very attentive to the shape of the eyebrows. According to their research, purposeful, strong individuals have straight and wide eyebrows, open and friendly people have arched eyebrows, and adventure lovers have arched or triangular eyebrows.
How to choose eyebrows according to your face type
Selecting the eyebrow shape according to your face type is a simple procedure. The main thing is to accurately identify your face type. The following types are distinguished:
- Square or rectangular. Distinctive feature of this shape: it does not have points protruding in width, that is, the width is approximately the same along the entire length. In the case of a rectangular shape, it is slightly more elongated than a square one;
- Round. The face has a square, heavy lower jaw and wide cheekbones. The length and width of the face are almost the same.
- Triangular. A face of this shape has a narrow chin and a fairly wide forehead;
- Oval. The chin and forehead are approximately the same width, but the cheekbones protrude greatly;
- Pear-shaped. Wide chin, narrow forehead, round cheeks;
- Diamond-shaped. The main feature is high prominent cheekbones;
Perfect eyebrows for different types faces will also vary. But it is best to choose an eyebrow with a wide beginning, a slightly raised main part, smoothly turning into a narrow tail.
When choosing a form, you should pay attention to certain features:
- Straight eyebrows will help visually make your face wider;
- Close-set eyes can be visually widened by increasing the space between the eyebrows. The opposite is also true; eyebrows need to be brought as close as possible to each other in order to visually reduce the distance between the eyes. The main thing is not to overdo it and not to combine both eyebrows into one;
- The rounded shape of the eyebrows will help to visually narrow the oval of the face, but a smooth bend is needed to avoid a surprised or arrogant expression on the face. It is recommended to remove hair only along the lower line of the eyebrow so that it does not look too low, otherwise it will visually reduce the size of the eyes.
Important! The gap between the eyebrows should not exceed the width of two fingers of your hand.
Round face
This shape requires abandoning very sharp and thin lines, because a strong bend, on the contrary, will concentrate attention on the roundness of the face. For the same reason, an arched shape is also undesirable.
One of the options could be eyebrows with a slight classic break or triangular shape. They will highlight your eyes and transform your face.
Important: Don't place your eyebrows too low or too high, otherwise your facial expression will look sad or surprised.
Oval face
It is believed that this face shape is the most correct. Eyebrows of almost any shape are suitable for her, but best option- eyebrows with a slight break. With a very narrow oval face, it can be visually expanded a little due to not too wide straight eyebrows, which should not be located too low.
Triangular face
High eyebrows that are too wide or too thin, and straight shapes are not recommended; they will only emphasize sharp features. It is also worth giving up overly long eyebrows, because they will visually disrupt the proportions of the face even more.
You can soften the sharp contrast between the wide frontal part and the narrow chin by arching the eyebrow with a slight rise, middle length. The width of the eyebrow is the same along its entire length, or slightly narrowed towards the end.
Pear-shaped face
The best choice for this face shape would be wide and fairly long eyebrows. You can also visually expand the upper part of the face by increasing the space between the eyebrows.
Square or rectangular face
The main emphasis should be on drawing attention away from the square chin and softening the lower part of the face, this will be facilitated by a smooth rise of the eyebrow at the beginning. On faces of such shapes, eyebrows with a break shifted towards the temple will look good, while the tail should be narrower than the main part and directed towards the middle of the auricle.
How to shape your eyebrows yourself
The following technique for determining the shape of the eyebrow and its boundaries is often used:
- Point No. 1(start - head). Place the pencil near the wing of the nose so that it intersects the inner corner of the eye. Place a mark where the pencil crosses the brow bone.
- Point No. 2(highest point). We position the pencil so that it touches the wing of the nose and crosses the pupil upward. Mark a point on the brow ridge.
- Point No. 3(the extreme point is the tail). Place the pencil so that it connects the wing of the nose and the outer corner of the eye, mark the intersection point on the brow ridge.

Eyebrow tattoo
Eyebrow tattooing is essentially a tattoo (a dye is injected under the skin), but the depth of its penetration is much less than 0.5 mm and, accordingly, over time (within several years) it will still wash out. Depending on the technique of applying paint, the following types of eyebrow tattooing are distinguished:
- Voloskovy. As the name suggests, in this case individual small hairs are drawn. They are placed between existing hairs in the direction of hair growth. This type The tattoo looks quite natural and, if done well, is almost invisible;
- Shot. A type of tattoo in which the drawn contour of the eyebrow is evenly filled with color. The result looks too bright and artificial;
- Combination. Harmoniously combines the hair method and shading. This method is used most often by craftsmen.
Microblading
Unlike tattooing, microblading is performed manually, without special equipment. The effect of it depends directly on the skills of the master.
The master uses a special tool with a micro-fine needle to draw individual hairs along the previously drawn contour. After which the remaining coloring pigment is removed from the surface of the skin. The depth of pigment introduction does not exceed 0.5 mm, so the visible effect will last about a year, after which the procedure should be repeated. If the procedure is carried out efficiently, it is almost impossible to see the drawn hairs, and the eyebrow color looks more natural.
Today the following are distinguished: types of microblading:
- European (mannequin). The master draws hairs of the same length and thickness, with the same slope. With this technique, the eyebrows turn out thick and voluminous, but upon close examination they do not look natural;
The shape of the eyebrows helps give the face the desired expression. When a face is drawn, the anger, joy, and sadness experienced by a person are conveyed using the shape of the eyebrows and the position of the corners of the lips.
Not a single girl dreams of looking gloomy and gloomy, and besides, she is sociable and cheerful. How to determine and choose the ideal eyebrow shape to make your face memorable, your eyes expressive, your image seductive and charming?
Artists who create masterpieces use the laws of harmony. When applying makeup, the face is also drawn, and when working with cosmetics, it is important to adhere to ideal proportions.
Eyebrow length: beginning, end, curve
Before you search correct form eyebrows, let's decide on their length. This is done with the help of a pencil or a developed imagination.
When choosing eyebrows, their correct shape and length, according to the type of face, you need to take into account the individuality of the person. Correctly chosen straight or curved eyebrows, with a soft or sharp angle, or rounded, can enhance the attractiveness of the face. In the makeup artist’s arsenal there is also the width of the eyebrows and the height of the arch.
- For a round face
Chubby girls will benefit from curved eyebrows, which will visually elongate the face vertically. The correct shape can be made with a soft or sharp angle, depending on the created image and individual facial features. Those with a round face should avoid rounded eyebrows - they will be emphasized round oval faces.
- If your face is oval shaped
Women with oval faces are lucky; any eyebrow shape suits their proportional face. If the oval is elongated, the eyebrows with a soft angle will smooth out the disproportion. Too much narrow face will widen straight horizontal eyebrows, but they should not be overly wide (this can create a gloomy, gloomy image) or too thin. The desired roundness of the face will be created by eyebrows of moderate width and thickness.
With a large chin and proportional cheekbones, an elongated eyebrow shape looks beautiful on an oval face.
- For square, triangular faces
A triangle-shaped face will be decorated with moderately large eyebrows with a smooth curve. If you make the arch high, you can give your face an inappropriate expression of constant surprise. Round ones will make the image feminine and soft. When drawing the correct eyebrow, you should make the arch higher, the more elongated the face is. 
When choosing the most suitable shape for a square face, they try to equalize the proportions and visually expand the upper part of the face; this effect is achieved by long eyebrows. They can start with a smooth curve that softens the facial expression. The rounded shape will add feminine softness to the look. You can create a strict look by raising the top point of the arch in a sharp curve (it is desirable that the eyebrows are thin). Girls with a square face should be careful about the straight shape of the eyebrows, which visually widens the upper part and makes the face shorter.
- When your face is like a heart
Rounded or softly curved eyebrows will help harmonize the proportions of a wide face narrowed towards the chin. They will give the face roundness and soften its expression. When drawing an eyebrow, you need to make sure that its beginning and end are on the same line. Otherwise, the facial triangle will expand and the disharmony in the proportions of its upper and lower parts will increase.
- If your face is a diamond
The diamond-shaped face is quite rare, as are diamonds. The shape itself makes the face unusual, with charm and zest. Curved eyebrows will help to emphasize the beauty of the image; they will visually make the widest parts of the face narrower.
Reminder for those who do makeup
Just as a photograph can be shaded with a frame, so thanks to the shape of the eyebrows, knowing which one best suits the type of face, you can make the image more attractive and express the individuality of a person. When drawing a face, you need to remember that eyebrows:
- in the shape of an arc they create the image of a soft, flexible, open person;
- with a sharp bend they speak of a tough character and a penchant for adventurism;
- wide and straight, in the shape of a horizontal line, indicate the potential of a leader, enormous willpower;
- raised high can give the face an expression of surprise;
- low-hanging ones, and even wide ones, give the face a gloomy expression and add years.
When doing makeup, you need shadows, pencils, and gels for your eyebrows. You can draw their appropriate shape with shadows; experts advise using only matte shadows. To emphasize the line of the eyebrows, their contour above and below can be shaded with light powder. After applying the color, the hairs need to be combed and styled using a fixative gel. 
If you draw with a pencil, the shape of the eyebrows should already be selected. Using a thin pencil tip, clear lines of shape are applied to the skin and then shaded with a brush. The use of a greasy pencil is not advisable - under the influence of body temperature and due to sweat and fat secretions from the skin, the applied texture may smear and run.
You can often find girls with problematic differences in the color of their eyebrows and hair on their heads. When naturalness and naturalness are in fashion, such a difference looks sloppy.
To correctly determine and choose the color of a pencil, you need to adhere to the rule - its color should be a tone lighter than the eyelashes and a tone darker than the hair. When preening throughout the day, you need to be careful and touch up your makeup carefully.
In fashion, the emphasis is on natural, natural beauty, and the shape of the eyebrows is given the maximum natural look. And yet there are trendy shapes - eyebrows with a kink, making the look somewhat predatory, feline and rounded, giving the look expressiveness.
Depending on your skin type and hair color, choose eyebrow pencils from light brown to black. Bushy eyebrows are thinned out, long hairs are trimmed.
One way to quickly transform your appearance, visually hiding “problem” areas of the face, is to change the shape of your eyebrows. Unfortunately, if it is chosen without taking into account individual characteristics, even the most attractive face can take on an unnatural, dull, gloomy or overly surprised look. How to properly correct and color eyebrows?
Peculiarities
Eyebrows can change your facial expression beyond recognition. That's why it's so important to learn how to choose the right shape. Eyebrows that are too thin or unnaturally shaped make the face look artificial. For girls with small facial features, overly wide eyebrows should become a taboo; they look comical.
Eyebrow correction can be done either independently or by a professional.
In general, the procedure cannot be called complicated if you equip yourself with the appropriate tools and the necessary knowledge.
Conventionally, correction can be divided into long-term and short-term. By long-term we mean microblading, tattooing, the effect of which lasts for a period of one to several years.
The short-term correction will last until the hairs begin to grow back. On average, this is 2-3 weeks.
Eyebrow correction is a procedure that violates the integrity of the skin, so it is important to ensure its safety. We are talking about disinfection of the work area, hands and materials, as well as disinfection of the eyebrow area after the procedure.
Kinds
There are several common eyebrow shapes, but before we look at their features, we need to define some terms. The origin, or head of the eyebrow, originates at the bridge of the nose. The middle part or body is the main area of the eyebrow and includes the arch. The tip is also called the tail; it is usually narrower than the head and body of the eyebrow.
Regardless of the chosen type, the ideal shape assumes that 2/3 of the eyebrow falls on the head and body and only 1/3 is the tip of the eyebrow after the break.
Depending on the points at which the head and tip lie, the following forms are distinguished:
- Straight. In this case, the head and tail lie in the same plane, thanks to which it is possible to visually make the forehead wider and “correct” an overly elongated face.
- Rising. The head is located slightly above the tip, the latter is usually directed towards the temples. Thanks to this shape, it is possible to slightly narrow the face and lengthen it.
- Descending. The tip of the eyebrow is slightly higher than the head - this shape is usually not used, and if this is a natural look of the eyebrows, then it is better to correct it. The fact is that they give the face a sad expression.
In addition, it is customary to distinguish the following forms:
- Rounded. They are characterized by a smooth arched bend, rounded beginning and tail. Usually this form is found in women of the oriental type. Suitable for square, diamond and rectangular face, allows you to hide excessive “angularity” and roughness of features.
- Triangular. Also called a “house”, with a moderate bend and respect for proportions, this form looks elegant and flirty. If these rules are not followed, the face acquires an astonished and unnatural expression.
- Curved. These are eyebrows with a break, a pronounced break. They never fail to catch the eye and, with varying arch shapes and proportions, they suit almost every brow type.
Broken eyebrows allow you to divert attention from “problem” areas of the face and make you look younger.
How to choose according to your face type?
The most harmonious face shape is considered oval. All other types, far from it, can be made more attractive with the help of various makeup tricks and the right eyebrow shape.
Thus, for chubby girls, eyebrows with a pronounced bend can be recommended. They are characterized by a thin tip, the decrease in volume of which begins from the middle of the eyebrow. It is important to achieve a natural bend, and not turn your eyebrows into sharp “ticks”.
If you have a round face shape, you should avoid both too wide and narrow eyebrows. The former make the face even more massive and round, while the latter give the face an unnatural expression.
For a square face, eyebrows with a noticeable bend are also recommended; they should be made smooth and rounded at the base. The bend should be above the middle of the eye or its outer corner. If necessary, it is recommended to extend the tip; the eyebrow should turn out a little longer than usual. The tip should be directed towards the temples. As for the width, it should be medium or slightly wider. Thin eyebrows look unattractive on a square face, making the already large lower part even more massive.
This shape is also suitable for a rectangular face. Wide straight eyebrows will look good on such a face. It is important not to move them too close, otherwise the face will take on an even more elongated shape. The tip of the eyebrow should be slightly sharpened and directed towards the temples.
With a triangular face type, the eyebrows should be slightly shorter, but at the same time quite thick, with a natural bend. The tip can be slightly curled inward, giving it a more rounded shape.
If you have a heart-shaped face, it is important to choose eyebrows that will strike a balance between the top and bottom of your face. For this, rising eyebrows with a pronounced arch are optimal. They should not be directed to the lower part of the face, but should be directed to the temples. Don't choose too wide and thick eyebrows, they will make the forehead area heavier.
A pear-shaped face requires a visual increase in volume in the forehead and temples to balance these parts with the expanding lower cheek and chin area. Wide and thick arched eyebrows are suitable. The less expressive the eyes, the more noticeable the “arch” should become.
The bend should be shifted closer to the outer corner of the eye.
For diamond-shaped face You should choose a rounded eyebrow shape or one with a subtle bend. An arch that is too sharp will only emphasize the “angularity” of the face.
It is not for nothing that the oval shape is considered one of the most successful, so its owners can afford almost any shape. Medium thick eyebrows with a soft bend are considered classics. Arched ones give the image softness and romance. However, you should carefully consider the width of the eyebrow and the bending point. Otherwise, the eyebrows will turn into “houses”, giving the face an unnatural expression of constant amazement. Wide rising eyebrows will suit an oval, but too thin, long face. They will make it visually a little more rounded.
When choosing a shape, it is important not only to select it taking into account the shape of the face, but also focusing on facial features. So, with close-set eyebrows, it is recommended to increase the space between the eyebrows in the bridge of the nose and make the eyebrows themselves thinner. At the same time, it is important to ensure that in the area of the bridge of the nose there remains a space free from hairs no wider than two fingers (index and middle fingers joined together).
As for the color, it should match the shade of the hair, and for blondes it should be 2-3 shades darker. Today, stylists say that even brown-haired and black-haired girls are not recommended to choose black eyebrows. They look rough and even vulgar, adding several years to the face.
When correcting the shape of your eyebrows, it is important to remember their natural appearance. As a rule, professionals only slightly correct the natural shape, so that the face retains its natural attractiveness.
How to determine proportions?
To build a proper eyebrow, you need to choose a white cosmetic pencil (in principle, you can take a colored one, but dark lines can be distracting). First you need to select 3 points - the beginning of the eyebrow, its highest point and the end.
The first can be found by placing a pencil from the wing of the nose to the eyebrow. This will be the beginning of the eyebrow. Next, from the wing of the nose through the middle of the pupil, you need to draw an imaginary line to the eyebrow. This will be the highest point. At the same time, you need to look straight ahead so that the location of the pupil does not shift. Finally, placing the pencil on the side of the nose, draw a line through the outer corner of the eye to the eyebrow. This will be the end point.
If you decide to radically change the shape of your eyebrows, you can apply foundation to their entire surface, and then make the necessary “markings”. After this, you should draw a suitable shape and shade it with a brown pencil. This way you will have a rough idea of how the new shape will look on your face.
From the beginning to the middle of the eyebrows, a uniform thickness should be maintained, narrowing begins at the break point or a little earlier. Working with both eyebrows at once allows you to achieve proportionality. It is wrong to pluck one eyebrow first and then the other.
The correct shape involves removing hair from the lower part of the eyebrow. Plucking the hairs from above can result in a heavy look. In addition, this method does not significantly change the shape. Finally, the hairs above the eyebrow grow slowly, so if you pluck the excess, you risk permanently changing the shape.
Design methods
Eyebrow shaping is usually done using tweezers or threads. The first method is considered more painful, but is accessible to almost everyone, while the thread removal technique requires possession of certain skills.
In addition, you will need a mirror to work. Its dimensions should be such that the entire face is reflected in it. It is better when the mirror has a stand, so your hands will remain free. Specialists use a mirror with a magnifying glass, which allows them to see even small hairs.
In addition, you should prepare a disinfectant solution that is used to treat work areas, hands, and tools. If you have makeup on your face, you will also need a makeup remover.
In case of severe pain, you can also use pain-relieving applicators and special creams. If they are unavailable, you can use a warm chamomile solution, as well as ice cubes.
Correction in the salon
Correction in a salon can be analogous to plucking at home. It’s better to trust professionals; if this is your first time making a correction, real professionals change the shape taking into account the individual characteristics of the face, select suitable shade. In the future, you will be able to maintain it yourself or undergo repeated professional corrections.
Eyebrow correction and architecture - this is the name of the service in most salons, involves coloring hairs, selecting and giving them the desired shape.
Most masters work with tweezers; removal is also possible using threads.
If there are too many hairs above the eyebrow, essentially already on the forehead, the artist may first use wax to achieve smooth skin. It should not be used in the area close to the eyes, especially in the lower part of the eyebrow.
If you want to achieve an ideal shape for a long time, we can recommend tattooing. The master selects a suitable shape, after which pigment is injected under the skin to a depth of 0.5 mm. At first, these eyebrows look unnaturally bright, but after a week they look quite natural. The results last for several years.
Today there are the following tattooing techniques:
- Shotting. It involves drawing the contour of the eyebrow and filling the resulting shape with pigment. This method inferior to other technologies, since the result is not the most natural.
- Voloskovy. Allows you to achieve attractiveness and naturalness due to the fact that individual hairs are drawn.
- Combined. Allows you to achieve the most attractive result, as it combines the advantages of shading and hair technology.
If tattooing is carried out using a special device (working on the principle of a tattoo tool), then the microblading technique, which is popular today, is carried out manually. First, the master draws the shape with a pencil, after which he manually draws individual hairs with a thin sharp needle with a coloring pigment.
The depth of penetration of pigment during microblading is slightly less than 0.5 mm, and excess pigment that appears on the surface of the skin is immediately removed. When you contact a professional, you will get a better and more natural result compared to tattooing. However, such eyebrows will last for an average year.
When using European microblading technology, it is possible to achieve the effect of thick, wide eyebrows, since the master draws hairs of the same length and thickness. However, upon closer inspection, it is clear that they are not real.
Eastern technology takes into account the characteristics of hair growth and direction, which is why eyebrows look more natural. However, it is impossible to significantly change their shape using this technique.
Finally, there is an eyebrow extension method that allows you to achieve thick and beautiful eyebrows in a couple of hours. However, they are difficult to distinguish from natural ones. The essence of the method is the same as with eyelash extensions.
For one natural hair attach from 1 to 3-4 artificial ones, which are as close as possible to yours in color and structure.
How to draw by yourself?
If you carry out the correction yourself, you need to remove makeup and cleanse your face. Prepare everything at once necessary tools and decide on the choice of form. Schemes and methods for determining suitable proportions and shapes have been given in the corresponding section of this article.
Today, eyebrow stencils are available for sale. It is enough to select a suitable “contour” and outline it, and then remove all the hairs that extend beyond the boundaries of the pencil lines. The advantage of this method is that it allows you to quickly obtain an almost ideal eyebrow shape. Why "almost"? Such stencils do not take into account the individual characteristics of the face.
Before plucking, the hairs need to be combed up a little, using a special brush or an old and well-washed eyelash brush. If the procedure is too painful, you can precede plucking by applying chamomile lotions.
To do this, pour a teaspoon of dried chamomile flowers into a glass hot water and leave for 10-15 minutes. Soak a cotton pad in a warm infusion so that the skin can tolerate it, wring it out and place it in the hair removal area for 2-3 minutes.
Under the influence of heat, the pores will open and the hair will “slip out” faster and more painlessly. Chamomile infusion is also characterized by analgesic, bactericidal and wound-healing properties.
If you use tweezers, you need to grab the hairs one at a time, slightly stretching the skin in this area and pulling the hair with a sharp movement in the direction of its growth. If you do not take into account the direction of growth, the procedure will be more painful and threatens with ingrown hair.
For the same reason, you should grab the hair closer to the base, which will avoid its breakage and further ingrowth. After the procedure, the skin is disinfected. For severe inflammation, you can use an anesthetic or cooling gel. The main thing is that it has a light water structure.
Another option is threading, that is, removal using threads. This method requires some skill and skill, but has a number of advantages. With one grip of the thread, you can remove several hairs at once, and irritation after this procedure goes away faster. An important advantage is that the hairs become softer and thinner over time.
You need to use a special thread called Arabic. It is quite dense, but glides well through the hairs without tearing or stretching.
From this thread you should cut a “piece” half a meter long and tie its ends.
Eyebrow shape for every face type. Correction methods using tweezers and shading with a cosmetic pencil. What is trading and why is it needed?
The content of the article:
Eyebrow correction is giving them the correct shape, corresponding to the type of face and appearance, using special tools and cosmetics. This procedure involves plucking out unnecessary hairs and painting rare areas. Correction can be carried out both in a beauty salon and at home.
What are the different eyebrow shapes?
There are several basic eyebrow shapes that you can try on your face. There are stencils on sale that are easy to apply, and lines and curves are drawn using their shape.
Eyebrow Shapes:
- "House". With this type of eyebrows you need to be extremely careful, because you risk always having a surprised expression on your face. They are most suitable for girls with high eyebrow centers.
- Rounded smooth. This is a universal eyebrow shape that suits almost any face type. These eyebrows make you look younger and open up your eyes.
- Arc-shaped. This type is suitable for girls with rough features and adds femininity and softness to the image.
- With a "break". The most popular form today, because it makes the face look natural and the look expressive and soulful.
- Direct. Such eyebrows can expand the face, so they are good for thin girls.
- Curved. This shape is characterized by a short ponytail and a high rise.
If you are a romantic person with a fine spiritual organization, too sharp bends and rises will not look appropriate. If the outer corners of your eyebrows point upward, you appear more gentle and naive. If they look down, you look tired and sad. When the base of the eyebrows and the outer corners are on the same line, this is the most advantageous direction.
How to choose the shape of your eyebrows to match your facial features
Eyebrows change a person’s face so much that their correctly chosen shape helps make the eyes appear larger. Girls with small eyes can use this nuance when correcting their eyebrows.
Cosmetologists call the height of the eyebrows an “arch.” Accordingly, high and low arches are separated. If you have small eyes, your eyebrows should be low. But avoid too thick shapes, otherwise your face will appear shorter. To reduce the size of your eyes, choose a high-arched brow type.
