Measuring for Correct Shaping of Eyebrows

Eyes are the most expressive part of the face. Eyes are bordered on the top by eyebrows. So they should be well arched to compliment the eyes. Eyebrows can alter the entire face if their shape is improved, the whole face must be taken into consideration before deciding on the shape. Removing extra hair from the natural arch of the brow is shaping them.

Procedure for measuring the brow for the correct length and arch

1. Place an eyebrow pencil diagonally from the flare of the nose past the outer corner of the eye, and mark a little dot on the skin at the brow. This will establish the outside of the eyebrow about 1/2 inch past the corner of the eye.

2. Hold the pencil at the inner corner of the eye and mark the skin above this point. This determines the inside of the brow.

3. The highest part of the brow should be above the outside edge of the iris of the eye when the patron is looking straight ahead.
