Eyebrows as the focal point!
At Amis we embrace the importance that eyebrows have on our overall appearance and the capability of our eyebrows to transform one’s look.
Trends are constantly evolving but what is static is the fact that not all eyebrows are the same and not all shapes suit all. We can uncover the best shapes for different face structures as well as the benefits of certain techniques to ascertain the best shapes for us as individuals.
Eyebrow Evolution
From the thin, over-plucked arches of the past to the fuller, more natural look of today, eyebrows have become a source of inspiration. One of the newest trends gaining momentum is the ‘feathered’ or ‘fluffy’ brow. This is where the brows are styled using eyebrow lamination for a more semi-permanent result or the use of brow gels or pomades together with a soft eyebrow tint possibly with the use of Henna. These brows add dimension and texture, framing the eyes beautifully.
Matching Eyebrow Shapes to Face Structures
Following trends can be fun but your unique face shape should be your primary canvas. Here is a quick guide compiled by expert eyebrow artists, to complement each face shape.
Round face: Opt for high, angular arches to add definition and elongate the face.
Square face: For a more balanced look opt for soft, curved brows.
Heart-Shaped Face: Softly rounded brows to balance a wider forehead, avoiding overly angular shapes.
Oval Face: Experiment and find your favourite shape as oval faces tend to be able to pull off a variety of eyebrow shapes.
Eyebrow Threading: Beauty with Benefits
Threading has garnered widespread popularity for its precision and effectiveness. Threading involves using twisted cotton thread to remove hair quickly and with precision. What sets threading apart is its ability to create clean, defined lines with minimal irritation that is gentle on the skin, making it suitable for even the most sensitive amongst us.
An expert eyebrow stylist working with thread is able to sculpt brows with meticulous detail allowing for unparalleled precision whether you are aiming for a subtle enhancement or a dramatic transformation.
In addition to its cosmetic benefits, threading is also an eco-friendly option, as it produces minimal waste compared to disposable waxing strips.
Whatever direction you want to go with your eyebrows the obvious is always in … these are only guidelines and experimentation is key. Consult with a professional eyebrow stylist at Amis to determine the best shape for you and carry it with confidence!
