I went to get my eyebrows waxed and didn't know it but when i got up it was like pencil thin almost. Then she proceeded to tell me she did that so it could regrow back straight and regular... this infuriated me of course but i got over it. Now i am thinking how thick and what shape should it take is it based on face measurements? Or rather preferences because this just doesn't look right to me. :( Either that or i am just not use to it?Eyebrow thickness and shape?
Check out some magazines. See what shape you like best and take notice to the shape of the face that they are on. When they grow back, take the magazine with you so you can show that person exactly how you want them. No matter if that person said it was done to make them grow out straight or what, they are YOUR eyebrows and YOU should be the one to decide how they are done. Good luck!Eyebrow thickness and shape?
Okay..well..the shape of the eyebrow:
Look straight ahead into a mirror. Where your pupil is should be the straight below the arch of your brow.
The end of your brow should be with the end of your eye.
The other end should be the with the other end of your eye (including the little part afterwords)
Thickness whys..it should be thinner after the arch then before it, but not too much. Usually it gets thinner as it goes down. The beginning of the eyebrow should be about the size of your pinky nail..unless you have a large pinky of course.
But the thickness should be proportional. I would let your brows grow out a little too thick..then shape them yourself with tweezers. It will be a bit painful..but you can figure out the shape you like, then when you go back to get them waxed, you know what you like.
Note: When tweezing, make sure you pluck a few, stand back and look, then pluck what you think should be gone. If you never step back and look, you will overpluck.
pencil thin is too thin, but htick is too thick. i've noticed girls that maintain their eyebrows normally maintain other parts very well.
I've had this happen to me a couple of times %26amp; thought my brows were too thin. However, in both instances, my brows were kind of scraggly at the ends and I had lost the arch. Both times my brows grew in nicely.
Both times happened after I put off having my brows professionally shaped for too long. I usually go in every 3- 4 months %26amp; can manage to maintain the shape decently before the ends of my brows get weird but just didn't have time to go to the salon.
Just be patient %26amp; let them grow in 4-8 weeks before you go in again. I've included some articles below so you can get some ideas of what you want. It also helps to bring in pictures from magazines %26amp; ask for the aesthetician's input.
You can just pluck the stray hairs underneath the brow bone but avoid trying to shape an arch or tweezing hairs above the brow bone.

If it's too thin then let it grow out untill you feel the need to go back then tell them not to cut it so thin. If it's begining to be to much of a problem then tell the manager.
buy some eyebrow stencils and ';try on'; different sizes / shapes using an eye pencil. You can find them at beauty supply stores. That will give you an idea of what you want next time. :)
Good Luck!
