How can I shape my eyebrows?

With tweezers you run the least risk and you can work more precisely. So you can pluck away everything that falls outside the marking. While plucking, pull the hair out in the direction of hair growth. Pull your skin taut while doing this, this will make it less painful.

Which eyebrow color suits my face?
Of course you can choose any color you like. If you want to go for a natural effect, the color of your eyebrows depends a lot on what color hair you have.
Blondies
The blondes among us often have naturally light eyebrows. The desire is therefore to make the eyebrows stand out a bit more. In this case, choose a darker color with a gray undertone. Be careful not to choose a color that is too dark, go for a color that is a maximum of three shades darker than your own eyebrows.
Brownies
For brunettes and people with black hair, the opposite is true. If you have dark hair, it is best to choose an eyebrow color that is slightly lighter than your own hair color. Choose an eyebrow color that is one to two shades lighter than your natural eyebrow color. This way you create a softer look.
Red hair
Not to forget the beautiful redheads. If you have red hair, you often have naturally light eyebrows just like blondes. So choose a darker eyebrow color. As a redhead, it is advisable to choose a color with a warm undertone. This matches nicely with the hair color for a natural result.
