You want to start by brushing your eyebrows in the direction you want them to go. Just kind of get them brushed in the direction you want them to go, you never ever want to wax the top of your eyebrows, never. If you have dark hair on the top of your eyebrows, there's just a few strays up there you just want to go through with your tweezers and get those few hairs. You never want to wax that area. Your natural arch comes from underneath your eyebrows, that's where your cleaning is going to come from, the underneath. Never the top, just remember that's a tip from Hollywood, all of your hair above your eyebrows, is kind of a natural hair that's on your face.

We're going to get the eyebrows brushed, we are getting ready to show you how to properly arch those. So your tip from Hollywood, never wax the top of your eyebrows, always tweeze that area."
