Some of them will have you raising your brow!<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Myths<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Wax Your Brows<\/strong><br \/>\nIt\u2019s not for everyone. Wax if you have strong brows, but if your brow hair is sparse, simply shape them on your own with an eyebrow pencil and use tweezers to clean up the edges.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Never Pluck Above the Brow<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is another tip\u00a0that varies from person to person. This holds true only if you&#8217;re trying to up your arch game. If you have strong arches and over pluck\u00a0the hairs below and not above, you&#8217;ll risk an overarched look. Again, find what is right for you and pluck where you feel\u00a0is necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>There Is Only One Way to Fill in Your Brows<\/strong><br \/>\nFalse, false, <em>false<\/em>. You&#8217;re not required to fill in your brows, and even just a swipe of brow\u00a0gel can whip your hairs into shape. Our\u00a0personal favorite is\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/thebrowgal.com\/shop\/eyebrow-gel\/\" target=\"_blank\">The BrowGal Eyebrow Gel<\/a>,\u00a0which is available in the\u00a0<a href=\"fabfitfun.com\" target=\"_blank\">FabFitFun Fall Box<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>No-nos<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t Over Pluck<\/strong><br \/>\nDifferent strokes for different folks, but there is such a thing as too-thin eyebrows. Don\u2019t become a victim of over plucking\u00a0and make sure to check your brows periodically when shaping them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Find the Right Fill-In Shade<\/strong><br \/>\nYou don\u2019t have to match your hair color exactly, but it depends. It\u2019s important to ensure your eyebrows aren\u2019t\u00a0too dark or too light because it won&#8217;t frame your face properly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t Overfill Your Brows<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you\u2019re going to fill them in, do so naturally and follow the growth of your\u00a0hairs. Going in too\u00a0heavily looks obvious and\u00a0unnatural. If you overdo it, go in with a spoolie brush and comb out extra product.<\/p>\n<p>Do you have some expert brow tips?
