I saw someone on here post that "eyebrows should be sisters, not twins" and I love that. So just keep in mind that they don't have to be perfect. You can go get them shaped (I prefer getting mine threaded) and then just maintain that shape at home through tweezing stray hairs. As far as color goes, you should go a couple of shades darker than your current color since you're a blonde. Look for taupe shades, they'll be pretty good. And no matter your method of application (a brush and powder, gel, pencil) just make sure you go with small strokes. You want to create the illusion of hair, so little baby lines will help with that. My eyebrows are naturally really sparse and light, so I fill my brows every day and I think they look pretty good with these little tips. Good luck!

For shaping them, just go with your natural arch and try not to over do it. Get them waxed for sure if you have trouble doing it yourself. A good esthetician will also trim them for you if need be, which in my opinion is what gives you that polished look. Maintenance then becomes much easier, as stated above, after waxing you can simply tweeze any stray hairs. A caution to those keen on threading, in my experience i've had a lot of girls coming to me with scarring from it being done badly! So find someone who knows what they're doing! Making your brows look "professional" is all about the proportion, as you have probably heard the eyebrows frame your face, so make sure you keep the anatomy of your face in mind while getting them to that perfect shape! The pencil trick always works! As I stated before having them trimmed can make the biggest difference between ordinary brows and structured, nicely finished brows. Depending on the thickness of your brow hair, after a good shaping you might not even need to fill in! Try not to trim them yourself tho if you're not 100% confident..it can go wrong very quickly! Good luck! Hope I was of some help!

Thank you everyone!! So I will probably get them waxed at a salon then maintain it.. I tweeze them.. So I would probably have to let them grow out and bushy? My eyebrows aren't long at all.. I feel like that makes my arches feel like they aren't in the right place

I use a pencil to get a good shape, then fill them in with a powder, I needed help with mine as well so I watched some youtube videos and I love them now!

There are plenty of tutorials on youtube on how to shape them. When you fill them in, I would use a really thin eyebrow brush because it's more precise.
