Eyebrow Shapes are Important

Brows and Lashes Updated September 29, 2022

Have you ever wondered why it’s so hard to get both of your eyebrows to look the same? Well breaking news, faces are not symmetrical! We all know eyebrows are sisters – not twins.

There are a number of things that can affect the symmetry of your eyebrows:

Bone structure
Position of your temples
Muscle tone
How you sleep
Your hair growth direction

You might have an eyebrow shape that you prefer, such as rounded, flat, or arched. The only way to achieve your best shape is to book in for a 4-Zone Eyebrow Shape Wax at Essential Beauty. Our Beauty Therapists are the experts when it comes to shaping, waxing, and grooming your eyebrows into the perfect shape. See our guideline for eyebrows below, of course this up to interpretation. You know your face better than anyone after all!

For Square Faces: Soften an angular face with a more rounded eyebrow for a balanced look.

For Round Faces: Sharp-angled eyebrows with high arches help create defined lines.

For Long or Oval Faces: A flatter eyebrow provides balance + prevents over-elongation.

For Heart Shaped Faces: Natural, soft-angled arches draw attention to the upper half of the face.
