How to Trim Eyebrows

Take Out the Bulk- Great for Both Women's and Men's Eyebrows

Now, take the comb and place in down into the eyebrow at about a 45 degree angle. If you want it as short as possible, then press the comb somewhat close to the skin. If you just want a little off, move the comb a bit away from the skin. Use the scissors over the comb and cut the hair. The comb helps so that you don't get too close and take off too much hair or get bald patches.

Men's eyebrows (get grooming tips) usually end up getting really long as they age. Taking out this bulk really helps men look more groomed and gain a more youthful appearance.

Women also benefit from removing some bulk if they tweeze or wax, and especially if they want well-defined brows. Only by the combination of both trimming and removing hair, can you get that perfectly defined look.
