Brow Tip #10 Brow Maintenance.
10. Make brow maintenance an everyday thing.
Need to keep your brows looking better, longer between brow shaping appointments? It’s easy. Make your brow clean ups a every day part of your makeup application.
Right after your appointment, keep an eye on your brows every day with a magnifiying mirror. Any strays that come in are easy to see with a freshly shaped brow. The trick is to keep an eye on it. Let it go for a week or two, and it becomes harder to tell what should go and what should stay. By keeping an eye on them, you can stretch out your visits and save $$. My clients that do this come in every 2/3 months for a shape up, instead of every 3/4 weeks.
Brow Tip #4 Finding the right arch for your brow.
4. The arch of the brow should always be at the outer corner of the iris.
My #1 brow pet peeve that I see is the arch of the brow being way too far out. The arch is meant to bring your eyeline down to your eye. If the arch is too far out, it makes the eye look too close to your nose, especially in photos.
Wrong arch alignment
Keep the arch aligned next to the outside of the iris of the eye, and it can actually make your eyes look bigger.
Eyebrow No-No #2
In doing eyebrows, I see these 5 common eyebrow no-no’s almost every day.

2. Arch in the wrong place
What do all of these images have in common? The arch is in the wrong place.
Or, in most cases, the arch is too far out. This happens when the arch
is created by a pencil lining up to the side of the nose, up to the
outside iris of the eye. Nope. That’s not the right placement. What
happens is that the eyes actually end up looking crossed eyed
(especially in photos), and does not make the eyes look wide set, like you think they would.
Fix: Tweeze a few more hairs so the arch moves in closer to the middle of the eye
