If you did not know this was a thing, you are probably one of the few to have a set of thick brows. Lucky you. Look around; many if not most Arab women are updated with the latest trends when it comes to eyebrows. The fuller the better. You can color them in to fill in the gaps with brow-enhancing cosmetics, shape them differently using mascara or brush them out for your desired look.



According to a report issued by NPD Group, consumer trends report has revealed that sales of eyebrow products have consistently grown over the last three years. All your favorite TV and even instagram celebrities are showing off their bold colored-in brows.



If you are about to follow the trend, make sure you know the techniques to achieve desired results. Not only does the style depend on the face symmetry but also on hair color. For instance, with dyed brown hair you can color in your eyebrows or die them a certain shade to suit your hair.  Toni & Guy in Jeddah helps you set the right look depending on your make up and face structure. You can wax, thread and even use the smooth razor blade to remove extras to help clean or shape your eyebrows. They make sure to moisturize your skin after threading and use eyebrow brushes and powder to color and shape them perfectly. When deciding the shape, first make sure the head of the brow should begin at the bridge of your nose. You can measure this by vertically holding a pencil up to either side of your nose bone.



The arch of your eyebrows should be about two-thirds of the way out, not in the center.  With so many options including thick, thin, arched and straight make sure it supports your face cut. Use an angled brush, eyebrow pencil, eye shadow and eyebrow wax as fillers. Never cut your brows too short, keep the side-length long. Bigger is better when it comes to square faces, with a round face the arched eyebrows give the face a more angular and well adjusted look.



Typically long faces highlight the straight eyebrows that you can comb out using a lash brush. Oval and heart shaped faces should consider well-groomed eyebrows using the measuring rule. Full and thick eyebrows have been a trend and are here to stay. Use concealer around your brows to give them an ultra-defined look and use moisturizers to nourish the sensitive area.
