Brows of doom

Hi ladies

So I have thick full brows. The hairs are very strong and are straight and flat. I've been getting them shaped by benefit brow bar (are great btw) but I have yet to do much else with them. My main concern is how long the hairs are. I ask the to trim but they never take much off. Because of that they make the shape if the brow flatter. I'm just wondering if anyone has experience trimming their brows and if it's easy. Also what do you suggest for filling/tidying them as on have a bald spot on one and the shape is ever so slightly different.

Thanks for you help lovelies xxx

I simply comb the hair downward And trim what extends below my brow And then comb them upward And trim what extends above my brow. I use a very small pair of trimming scissors

^ Do you find it difficult knowing how much to take off? Thanks for answering.

Always start off trimming the tiniest bit off. I do the same as Erica but I have full brows and so I keep the hair a bit longer than my brows. I think it shapes them into place better when the hair is a tiny bit longer. Just remember you can always trim more, you can't get it back once you trim it though. Just start with a tiny tiny amount on each spot on the brow, then comb out your brow. Do the other eyebrow and step back from the mirror. If needed, trim a little more.
