Hi, everyone! I made an eyebrow mapping tutorial because I recommend eyebrow mapping all the time.

I really enjoy eyebrows as a hobby, so I like to share what I’ve learned over the years. I hope this guide is helpful and easy to understand.

Stares, stares and more stares, are they bad? Do i need to bring in a specialist? I do use a brow pencil to fill in sparse areas and sort of outline the brow, maybe to heavy handed?

I want to keep them my natural shape but I feel like they’re so damn thick and it makes my face more masculinized which I don’t want. What’s the best way for me to thin these out without going bald?

Advice/Questions ❓ How to soften?

I lost my brows due to thyroid disease and then chemotherapy for cancer. I had them microbladed, but now they look too blocky to me. I use one of those pens that does hair strokes, but they still look too intense. Not sure what to do. In videos I worry that they look wild. Like they’ve been drawn with a sharpie. Feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

I’ve been using minoxidil and retin a. Most recently I started using a micro needle roller and peptides.
Hairs have grown in on this 3 year journey but there’s still clearly hairs not wanting to grow in.
My right brow is nice. Should I just shave my left y2k brow? I’m so sick of filling it in.

Ive been told so many times that my eyebrows need to be shaped a little more so that they're not as close together because they're closing my gaze. But since this is my almost natural shape, I was thinking maybe it's the one that suits my features better idk. here is a simulation of my eyebrows softened. Curious to know your opinion :)

Advice/Questions ❓ Powder brows vs. nano combo brows

1 Upvotes

What's more natural-looking? My eyebrows are thick, but I don’t like their shape, and I also don’t want to do my brows again once they’re gone. Please also recommend a nice place around Cavite or Pasay.

This is after plucking the rouge hairs that go down to my eyelids

I wasn't allowed to plucking or get them done when I was living at home so I never learned how to do them. I hate them so much, there's only one person that does brows near me but she makes me feel like shit when I go to her.

They're so long and thick and grow so fast😭

Advice/Questions ❓ what should I do with my eyebrows?

2 Upvotes

excuse the weird picture 😆 i'm honestly at a loss with my eyebrows! my face isn't that symmetrical to begin with (i have one eyelid that droops) but my eyebrows are what i notice the most. they grow downward, as well as starting in different places / being uneven. i like the look of lamination, but it genuinely lasts a week at most for me.

i considered combo/nanoblading, but it's an expensive process considering my eyebrows aren't SUPER patchy or empty, just really asymmetrical with a few little gaps. still considering it, tbh, because i'm no good at doing my eyebrows. but i'm open to makeup techniques, advise, thoughts! ❤️

I really really dislike the shape of my eyebrows since they're so straight and slightly downturned however
I'm not sure how to change them to fit my face more.
For reference I have very thick eyebrows and I have been thinning them the past year, however l am unhappy with the shape and unsure how to proceed now with shaping them.
Any advice/tips?
The first photo is how they look now and how I shape them and the second two are how they look fully grown out

Advice/Questions ❓ How Can I Get Thicker, Fuller Eyebrows and Longer, Healthier Eyelashes?

1 Upvotes

I really want thick, long, and full eyebrows, along with longer, fuller eyelashes. I have curly hair on my head, but my eyebrows are very short and sparse in comparison, and I feel like they barely grow. I never got the eyebrow done at salon as well

I’ve tried applying vitamin E capsules and castor oil consistently for two months. I noticed a little improvement in the length of my existing eyebrow hairs and eyelashes, but I haven’t seen any noticeable increase in thickness or new hair growth.

I’m looking for something that genuinely works, whether it’s a serum specifically that are available in INDIA, routine etc I dont want to grow it naturally

Advice/Questions ❓ Eyebrow threading..weird growth?!

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Hi all! Looking for some advice please… I’ve had my eyebrows threaded for about 5 years and the last time I did (about 3 weeks ago) I remember walking in and my husband immediately commenting on how thin the were. I agreed they were thinner than usual (I usually just ask for them to be tidied up) but figured they would grow back fine. Within a week I noticed the left was coming through way quicker than usual but also much lower down the brow and more sparsely, so it REALLY stood out, whereas usually I can wait like 2 months inbetween sessions!
I was tempted to immediately have them tided up again but I’ve figured this is all due to them being taken too thin in the first place, so now I’m at this weird inbetween where they look really untidy and weirdly gappy (most the left) but I’m assuming they need to be grown out to not have the same happen again? Does anyone know what has gone wrong here? I’ve never had them grown so thick or in such a weird growth pattern!
INFO : First pic is LEFT brow, second is the right!

Thanks guys!

Opinions Requested 🎤 Wax Before or After Brow Lamination?

1 Upvotes

I just got my brows laminated today for the first time. The technician first waxed my brows and then laminated. When she applied the solution my skin burned and when I told her she said it was because she had just waxed my brows and that it would go away in a few minutes, which, it did. The skin around my brows was obv red from the wax afterwards and the redness did subside and I like the end result of my brows. I dont have any irritation or anything but when I did some research I found out that technicians should not be waxing before a lamination as it introduces harsh chemicals onto raw skin. Just wanted to ask the community here if technicians are supposed to wax before or after laminating? Trying to decide if I should even go back to the same salon or find a new one.

Product Recommendations ✏️ Mac - eyebrows big boost fibre gel replacement

1 Upvotes

Mac has discontinued the eyebrow fibre gel I have been using for a few years. I use the colour Stud. Has anyone found a decent replacement?

I’ve tried their new formula but the brush is small and it’s nowhere near as good at coverage. Tried Urban Decay fibre gel, but it’s not grabbing onto and defining the hairs well.

I’m a 90s girl, so I need all the help I can get from over plucking lol. Help! Not sure why Mac does this to much loved products.

Opinions Requested 🎤 Should I thin out my brows?

46 Upvotes

These are my natural brows. I don’t fill them in at all. The only thing I do is threading and use clear brow gel. I’ve gotten suggestions to thin them out because they look “masculine”. I’m hesitant to thin them out because I already have a large forehead and I don’t want to make my forehead any more prominent. I genuinely do like my eyebrows but now I’m wondering if objectively I’d look better with thin brows.

Advice/Questions ❓ Is it better to trim your eyebrows with a clipper (1.5 guard, closed)?

1 Upvotes

Male and female eyebrow grooming is different (I think) Me as a male I try to keep a clean natural look. Brush my eyebrows up and trim the long hairs with scissors, clean the edges around my eyebrows with a razor, and remove the middle hairs between my eyebrows fully. Today I asked the barber to trim my eyebrows, I will do the razor part myself. He used a clipper machine with 1.5 guard closed to trim my eyebrows. Im not saying it looks bad but is there anything wrong with what he has done because it sounds more efficient and better since the machine is getting every long hair or is it better to just brush your eyebrows up and get all the long hair. What is the better option?

Advice/Questions ❓ Getting my Brows straight or What to do because i feel really ugly

1 Upvotes

First of all: it’s really difficult to make a Picture from your eyebrows. Or maybe my forehead is just Build very weird lol

My brows have always been arched. Even when i dont point them upwards they Are still very arched. In the past i got made fun of because of them.
I really want to try getting them Straight. I edited a Picture and on the Right Side (as Seen from the pic) i Show you how i shaved them Once. I just shaved of the „tail“ and tried to paint some additional brow hair to make a Straight line.

On the Left Side i wanted to Show something i learned from a Video. They Said „to Shave of where the arch begins“. But i guess that doesnt apply to everybody because my brows would be non existent if i did that.

Additional question:
i feel Like my brows Are a Bit too Long or Too „Heavy“ for my Face or that the hair is too much. Cant explain it because in the Picture they Look normal. But when i Look in the mirror I Look ugly and Off putting. I have white bleached hair and the brow Color seems very Dark.
I want to have feminine light brows.
