Eyebrows- how do I trim the brow? What would I ask for if I'm happy enough with the shape?

I tried HD brows but they looked dreadful after the dye bit, I just felt like a TOWIE wannabe, so not for me.

I'm happy enough with the shape of my eyebrow, I never really do much apart from tweeze a few stray hairs above and below the brow. However my eyebrows are getting really long and obviously the hairy bit needs trimmed but I don't want the rest of it touched. Can salons do this?

Any other suggestions about what I could do. I would love amazing brows like HD brows look when google them but they just look silly on me!

I trim mine by using a really fine comb, comb upwards, catch the brows with a finger and use small sharp scissors to trim the longer ones that are sticking up.

I brush my brows up and then trim them. I also have a little Brow razor which gets rid of stragglers and tidies up longer ends.

I have never shaped mine as they are naturally a great shape for my face, but this helps them look more defined without being Scouse brow.

Brush mine down and trim them. I have a special eyebrow scissors. It's a hair scissors but only the size of a nail scissors. It's much better than using a nail scissors.

I have very good natural eyebrows but they are very dark and so need tidying regularly.

I simply book for an eyebrow trim and when I get there, just before I lie down, I tell the beautician-no matter how many times that I have had her before- that I don't want the shape altering, just simply an eyebrow tidy.

This is always exactly what I get.

Comb up and trim above the arch then comb down and trim below, pluck any stray hairs-easySmile
