Incredibly strong opinions about eyebrows are an integral part of ML.

I've always been very opinionated about eyebrows. Now I know I fit in here

Please take my advice. Go to Hair Cuttery, Great Clips, Supercuts, any chain hair cutting place. Go in and say you need your eyebrows re-shaped more natural. They will show you what eyebrows would look best for your eye shape and they will wax them for you for on average 7 bucks. It barely hurts and is MUCH faster than tweezing. It also lasts longer.

Thanks, ijack!

OP- Maybe you should get these:

I swear, my eyebrows are as sparse as yours, or possibly more so, but the shape you are doing is taking away from the beauty of your face.

I freehand with the benefit pencil, and they are never as full as I would like them to be, but I am just not meant to have thick brows. You are drawing yours very full, and the shape is off - and you also are just not meant to have giant/thick brows. Don't be upset, it's just not in the cards for us!

You should emulate the shape of the stencil, or just use the actual stencil.

The makeup lady told me that you don't draw in a solid block with an eyebrow pencil, you sort of sweep it across in short little strokes in areas where you already have eyebrow. Like, you're drawing in "extra" hairs.

I love the benefit brow bar at Macy's.  They are fantastic, and always give the perfect shape.

You are very pretty and I think you will find a shape that looks best. Don't give up!

Check out this Dutch chick, too. See the shape she is making?

Her outer half of her brow is bald.

lol so are mine. I just pluck them enough to make sure they aren't woolly mammoth and then leave my hair down and hope no one notices that they are slightly different shapes/lopsided.

my eyes are different shapes and sizes too, so I feel like it's just the look I'm going for

I give up.

You are beautiful. Personally I like your brows in both pics. For most people, eyebrows will fall into the category of makeup application that is meant to look as natural as possible. But, that's not true for everyone. You can absolutely pull off a statement brow if you want to.

Judging from your tattoos and gauges I'm guessing you enjoy showing your flair. There's no reason why your brows can't be another thing you use to express your personality. Just like someone might use a bright lip or unnatural hair color. I know plenty of alt girls who use bold eyebrows in this way. You would fit in with the best of them, your eyebrows are perfectly symmetrical and have the intentional look that make them look designed to make a statement.

You've been given really great and thoughtful advice on how to tone down your look. Not everyone has to be toned down though. If bold eyebrows make you happy, then work it.

Giiiiiiiiiiirl, I was just coming in here to say this.  They are not twins!

Most people don't have eyebrows that exactly match their hair. It's better to find something that coordinates, and reddish colors are harder to get right. You are super beautiful and REALLY need to go in and have a professional shape and tint. It would make such a difference and would save you money in the long run so you don't keep wasting money on products that don't work for you.

People are being very gentle because it's such a personal thing. But Darling, it's seriously an emergency. A brow emergency.
