Anyone who knows me knows that my Eyebrows affect my mood. I am not being dramatic, they even affect my self esteem. At the moment I have a whack job done to my eyebrows. My regular place was closed so I decided to walk into a popular beauty store to get it done. The results were saddening. The one true saving grace I have is been able to fill my eyebrows well to give the illusion that they are perfect. I tell you this is one of the life skills you need as a woman.
Assess Your Brows
The most important thing to know is the shape of your natural eyebrows. Balance and proportion are what the human eye perceives as beautiful.  There are different eyebrow shapes and knowing what suits you is half the work done.
Brush Your Brows

Shape Your Brows
Here in Nigeria, we are used to the razor. I am lucky to be hairy so I use different methods depending on my mood to get my eyebrows in shape. I actually enjoy waxing. Though the blade is faster, it is a skill I haven’t been able to master. In an emergency or when I am alone I tweeze my eyebrows to shape, removing excess hairs destroying the shape.
Fill in Your Brows
There are many different ways to fill in eyebrows, you can use a pencil or a dip brow pomade. It just depends on personal preference. The pomade is easier for some but I prefer the pencil. Small strokes are key in order to properly blend the colour into your brow while still looking natural. I see some people just draw a straight line and wonder why it doesn’t look like what they see in magazines. I guess this is why people prefer the dip brow. Anastasia Beverly Hills makes a good product. If you are a beginner you can easily use this. After shaping your eyebrows, you use the pencil or dip brow to give volume.
Set (Your Eyebrows)
You should always set your freshly formed eyebrows with a brow gel that is either clear or tinted. This will confirm that your brows are waterproof and sure to last all day.
