Brow math is simple: Face shape ➕ brow shape ➕ the right tool ➖ salon tears = brows that actually suit YOU.
But here’s the thing: while brow trends may be fun to watch, not every shape belongs on every face. Just like not every filter belongs on every pic, some enhance, some... well, let’s not go there.
So bae, no more crossing your fingers, holding back tears, and hoping parlour didi gets it right this time. Because when it comes to shaping brows that truly suit YOUR face, a little planning and the right tool make all the difference.
In this blog, we’re diving into different eyebrow shapes for every face shape and exactly how you can achieve them at home using your Eyebrow Trimmer.
In one of our previous blogs: How to Choose the Perfect Hairstyle for Your Face Shape, we broke down exactly how to find your face shape. If you’ve already done that, you’re all set: let’s move on to brows! And if you haven’t yet, no worries, you can check it out anytime and come back to this guide.
How to Map before you trim
Before you grab your Trimmer For Women, the first step is to map your brows. This helps you figure out where your brows should naturally start, arch, and end, which means you can shape them to flatter your face (and know exactly where to leave them alone 😉).
Think of it like setting up a little GPS for your brows so you know exactly where to trim.
Smooth Move 1: Start Point (brow head)
Hold the brow pencil or makeup brush vertically along the side of your nose. The spot where the pencil touches your brow is where your brow should start.
Smooth Move 2: Arch Point (highest point)
Now tilt the pencil so it passes through the outer edge of your iris (the coloured part of your eye). That’s where your arch should be.
Smooth Move 3: Endpoint (brow tail)
Now you tilt the pencil all the way to the outer corner of your eye (where your upper and lower eyelid meet on the side) → this tells you where the tail of your brow should end → how far out to extend the brow.
Now that you’ve mapped your brows, it’s time for the fun part: picking a brow shape that actually suits YOUR face.
The best part? Your Women’s Trimmer lets you shape and perfect your brows anytime, no nicks, no cuts, and no oh fuzz moments.
Best Brow Shape for Round-Shaped Faces: High-Arch Brows
A round face has softer features and equal width and height, which can sometimes make the face look shorter. That’s why adding height through a high arch helps create more vertical definition, elongating the face and balancing those curves.
How to shape:
1. Stretch the skin:
Gently stretch the skin around your brow bone (just below the brow) using your fingers — this gives a flatter surface for more precise trimming.
2. Angle of trimmer:
Hold the 2-Way Eyebrow Shaper at a slight downward angle, blade side facing your skin. Always trim in the direction of hair growth first, then if needed, go slightly against it for sharper definition.
3. Creating the arch :
Use the shorter, precision side of the trimmer to shape under the arch. Start with short, light strokes — trim gradually to “lift” the arch higher. Keep checking in the mirror to balance both brows.
4. Brow head:
Use the longer side of your Women's Trimmer, with or without the brow comb, to tidy up the front of your brow — trim only stray long hairs here to maintain fullness.
5. Brow tail:
Switch back to the shorter side of the trimmer. Use small, gentle strokes to shape and slightly lift the brow tail (the end of your brow)
Bae Hack: After shaping, brush your brows upward and outward — this instantly shows off the lift you’ve created and helps you spot any last stray hairs to trim
Best Brow Shape for Oval-Shaped Faces: Soft-Angled Brows
Oval faces are naturally balanced, you don’t need to add drama, just enhance what’s already working. Soft, angled brows are like loose waves in your hair; they add just enough shape to flatter, without looking harsh or “done.”
How to shape:
1. Stretch the skin:
Place your fingers just under your brow and gently pull the skin tight. This gives a smoother surface and helps with precision trimming.
2. How to hold the trimmer:
Hold the 2-Way Eyebrow Shaper at a slight downward angle (about 45°), blade side facing your skin. Always trim in the direction of hair growth first, then, if needed, go slightly against it for sharper definition.
3. Shape under the brow:
Use the shorter side of the trimmer to carefully trim under your brow — follow your natural brow curve to keep the shape soft and rounded (no sharp angles). Use light, short strokes and go slow.
4. Keep the arch soft:
Stay with the shorter side here — use small strokes under the arch to create a gentle lift without making a sharp point.
5. Clean the front and top:
Switch to the longer side of the trimmer to neaten the front of the brow and to clean up any stray hairs above the brow — this helps keep the whole look polished.
Bae Hack: Use the brow comb attachment with the longer side when trimming longer hairs at the front of the brow — it helps keep them even and prevents over-trimming.
Best Brow Shape for Heart-Shaped Faces: Soft-Rounded Brows
Heart-shaped faces usually have a wider forehead and a narrower chin. Soft, rounded brows help balance this by softening the upper half of the face and drawing attention inward. Soft, rounded brows = the 1:1 ratio of balancing a wider forehead with a softer chin, simple math for a perfectly framed face
How to shape :
1. Stretch the skin:
Place your fingers just under your brow and gently pull the skin tight. This gives a smoother surface and helps with precision trimming.
2. How to hold the trimmer:
Hold the 2-Way Eyebrow Shaper at a slight downward angle (about 45°), blade side facing your skin. Always trim in the direction of hair growth first — then if needed, go slightly against it for sharper definition.
3. Shape under the brow:
Use the shorter side of the trimmer to carefully trim under your brow. Focus on creating a soft, rounded curve — avoid making a high arch or sharp points. Go slow and use small, gentle strokes.
4. Keep the brow tail fuller:
Stay with the shorter side here, too. Lightly clean up around the tail of your brow, but don’t over-trim — keeping the tail a little fuller helps balance the narrower chin.
5. Tidy the top of the brow:
Switch to the longer side of your Hair Removal Machine to clean up any stray hairs above the brow. This keeps the whole brow looking neat and soft.
Bae Hack: Don’t forget your brow tail! For heart faces, keeping the tail fuller helps balance the lower half of the face, so trim lightly here and keep that volume.
Best Brow Shape for Square-Shaped Faces: Thick-Flat Brows
Square faces usually have a strong jawline and bolder angles. Thick, flatter brows help balance this by softening the overall look and drawing the focus upward, creating a more harmonious shape. Think of thick, flat brows like an oversized blazer; sharp, bold, and balancing out strong features.
How to shape:
1. Stretch the skin:
Place your fingers just under your brow and gently pull the skin tight — this helps create a flat surface for shaping.
2. How to hold the trimmer:
Hold the 2-Way Eyebrow Shaper at a slight angle, blade side facing your brow. Start by trimming in the direction of hair growth to control length and maintain brow thickness. For cleaner, sharper lines under the brow, use small, gentle strokes against the direction of growth.
3. Flatten the arch:
Use the shorter side of the trimmer to trim along the bottom of the brow — aim for a straight line to flatten out any natural arch. Go slow and steady — check in the mirror to keep both brows even.
4. Keep the brows thick:
Avoid trimming too much from the top or sides. Use the longer side of the trimmer just to clean up stray hairs above the brow — this keeps the bold, thick look intact.
5. Final:
If needed, use the longer side (with the brow comb) to gently even out any longer hairs at the front of your brows — this helps them look polished but still full.
Bae Hack: Before using your eyebrow trimmer, use an eyebrow pencil to lightly draw your brow shape first. it helps you follow a straight, clean line while trimming and keeps your brows looking bold and balanced.
