Tricks of the Brow Trade

Tips from Boom Boom aka Malynda Vigliotti: Sculpted brows have become an everyday essential…just look around, there’s hardly an arch out of place these days. Whether seeking professional help or DIYing it, there are some tips and tricks to having a brow game on point.   Boom Boom, owner of Boom Boom Brow Bar, shares her tricks of the brow trade.

1. Don’t neglect the area above brows – removing hair from the bottom can create lift, but forgetting to clean up the top area is the difference between bold and beautiful and just plain old bold.

2. Work on both brows at the same time – “brows are sister not twins,” so don’t meticulously shape one and then try to get the other to look exactly the same.  Instead, go back and forth throughout the process to gauge what needs to be done to make them symmetrical, not identical.

3. Take a step back – when staring into a mirror, every little hair is assessed rather than the overall shape, make sure to view the entire face, not just brows.

4. Be original – there is no universal perfect brow shape.  Everyone has different features that come into play, so make sure to look like yourself at the end of the process, instead of someone with perfect brows that look like they belong to someone else.

5. And remember – removing less is always more.  Just removing the stragglers and letting the rest be can work magic.
