I have never plucked mine. Had them done for me twice, plucked once by a friend and waxed once professionally.

They are hideous - see pic. Apologies for quality, it's REALLY HARD to take a picture of one's own eyebrows. Especially with your husband laughing at you. Anyway I've recently started wearing make up and taking care of my skin a little bit more, and it's sort of highlighted how terrible they are.

What do I do with them? How do I know what kind of shape I want? I don't want ultra thin lines that I have to pencil in, but I don't want "HD brows" either.

Please help!

Find a reputable beauty salon, ask them to tidy them up for you. Threading isn't as painful as tweezing in my opinion. Ask a professional and then just keep on top of them yourself.

I think they are a great colour and basically a good shape - don't be so hard on yourself, just a quick tidy-up and you will look super

Threading all the way!

Thread thread thread thread thread. And you're lucky, as you don't look like you need to tint as well! My natural brows probably aren't dissimilar to yours, and I battled away plucking them myself for years. One trip to a decent beautician (look at her eyebrows! The best way to tell I reckon!) and it's changed my eyebrow life!

Colour is fine. A little tidy up will do the trick. Get them threaded, doesn't hurt but, always makes my eyes water for some reason?! A good threader will bring the arch out and just get them redone every couple of weeks. Post some pics once you have had them done.

Ooh thank you! My lovely hairdressers does threading I think, I will give it a go and report back!
