Posted by Jennifer Ngo at August 5th, 2024

Our eyebrows are more than just facial features; they frame the eyes, enhance expression, and add distinct character. In recent years, there’s more appreciation for how brows can be an artistic beauty treatment, with each shape bringing out different aspects of personality.  In this piece, we’ll cover some primary eyebrow shapes and how they can impact your look!

The Different Eyebrow Shapes

  • Angled Brows

Angled brows are characterized by a sharp peak that adds definition and structure to the face. This shape enhances bone structure, creating a bold, striking look, especially suited for those with rounder face shapes. The angle can make the eyes appear lifted and elongated. 
  • Rounded Brows

Rounded brows create a soft, feminine appearance, especially flattering on square or angular faces. Without harsh lines, rounded brows add warmth and youthfulness, making them perfect for those who want a gentle, approachable feel.
  • Arched Brows

Arched brows are a classic shape with a noticeable peak at the center or toward the tail of the brow. They are versatile, as they can be soft or more dramatic. High arches add sophistication and help open the eye area, making them a favorite for those who want a chic, polished appearance.
  • Straight Brows

Straight brows, with minimal or no arch, are a popular trend in K-beauty and beyond. Straight brows have a relaxed look that softens angular features and lengthens rounder faces. Straight brows are excellent for a laid-back, natural look and have a cool, understated appeal. 
  • S-Curved Brows

An S-curve brow has a soft wave-like shape that combines a slight upward curve at the start with a soft arch or angle through the brow’s length—just like an S! These brows are unique and attention-grabbing. This shape naturally complements certain face shapes. It works well for those with strong, prominent style and facial features. 

Discovering Your Ideal Brow Shape

Each person’s natural brow shape is a great starting point. When a lash artist assesses features like arch height, brow thickness, and length, they can determine which shape suits you best.  Here’s a quick look at key factors in eyebrow shaping:
  • Arch Placement: A higher arch elongates and lifts the face, while a lower arch creates a softer, more approachable look.
  • Thickness: Thicker brows add youth and intensity, while thinner brows soften features.
  • Tail Position: The tail length can influence the eye's size and face proportions.
Your natural eyebrow shape is a guideline to highlight your unique beauty. While brow artists can create any shape, the best results come from enhancing your natural shape and features.
