Celebrity makeup artist Bobbe Joy is well known for helping celebrities achieve those glamorous eyebrows using very simple steps. In the video below, she guides you through the process of finding your eyebrow shape, as well as how to shape and maintain them on your own.

Eyebrow Threading

Originating from the middle east and India, threading is the ancient art of hair removal. With only some cotton thread, VideoJug will show you how to have your eyebrows threaded.

They depend on someone like Beverly Hills makeup artist Bobbe Joy. Known as the "brow resuscitator", Bobbe will show you how to go from barely there to luscious brows!

Eyebrow grooming tips

◈If your brow hairs are unruly, then use a brow gel to hold them in place.
◈Never use black because the result will be harsh.
◈I always go with the shape that is most flattering to my face instead of following the fads because brow hairs don’t always grow back.
◈If you’re unsure about what to do, hire a professional. That way you can have the desired look and maintain the shape yourself by plucking the hairs as they grow back.
◈Plucking too much underneath looks unnatural, so go for a look that is clean and polished.
◈Don’t tweeze above your brows because unless you have a lot of experience, you may end up with a very scary look for the next month or so.
◈If you find that the white pencil technique doesn’t help, try eyebrow stencils. They’re already perfectly shaped, so there’s a lot less worry for you.
◈To relieve the pain of plucking, numb the area with an ice cube or Anbesol.
