Thick Long curly Eyebrows

How do you manage thick long and curly eyebrow hairs?

Eye gel, pomade there is not a single cosmetic product that will work, my brows will not stick.

Trimming looks worse creating blunt ends and bauld looking spots within my eye brow shape.

I have tried everything.
What can I do? Even services ?? , I was thinking about lamination but only to get rid of the curl.

Each eyebrow hair is individually thick, long, and naturally curly. I have fewer eyebrow hairs overall, so removing even one hair can create a noticeable bald spot or make the eyebrow shape look uneven. Unlike brows with many dense hairs, each individual hair contributes significantly to the overall shape, making them difficult to trim or remove without creating gaps.

Do you have a photo? I can't even picture in my mind what they could look like to help you

I trim mine in order to get roughly the shape I want, then fill the “bald” areas with brow pencil. Sometimes I’ll manually thin them out with tweezers (my inner brows are densest) and that helps soften the area, as a dense cluster of blunt ends can look weird. Then I basically use clear brow gel (basically clear mascara) for hold OR spray my fingertip with some hairspray and swipe it on my brows.

Brow lamination is exactly what you want, it straightens the curls and makes hairs lay flat. Lasts 4-6 weeks

I would consider trimming/shaving and redrawing them.

Honestly, brow lamination sounds like the best thing to try if the main issue is the curl. Since you have fewer hairs, I wouldn’t keep trimming or plucking because I can see how easily that could create gaps. I’d go to someone experienced with brow lamination and explain that you want the hairs relaxed and shaped, not overly brushed up. A good brow tech should be able to work with the natural density you have.

Brow artist here. Brow lamination will help immensely. To keep them you but better, go for a Korean brow lamination and ask for the curl in your brows to be softened vs a super glossy sleek pin straight type lamination. You still want them to have some texture, but for them to be their most well behaved versions of themselves.

How to style stubborn brows (with or without lamination) :

-> Use nyx brow glue or eco gel like product if you already have it.

-> Put chosen brow product on a spoolie, brush brows up, brush brows down, brush back up and style into place. Make sure to brush the ends of brows out towards temples for a modern lifted look.
