Look into a well-lit mirror and use miniature scissors to trim away the hairs that are longer than the rest. Once trimming is complete, all of the brow hair should be a uniform length.

Brush the hairs of the trimmed brow back to their natural position with the eyebrow brush. Your brow should look thin and shapely after trimming.

Repeat the process with the other brow to complete the eyebrow trimming process.
