Scissors are one of the gadgets you can use for eyebrow grooming. Do you know how to use them and why they’re worth introducing into your beauty kit?

Check what you should learn about eyebrow grooming scissors and whether it’s worthwhile to get this cosmetic gadget.
What do eyebrow scissors look like?
Standard brow grooming scissors are slightly similar to standard scissors used e.g. for cutting paper.
They differ in size – brow scissors are smaller whereas the blades are almost the length of a single brow hair. The tip of the brow scissors is gently crooked so you can operate the tool even if your brows are not bold or bushy. Generally, they are made from stainless steel (for hygiene and durability) and often come with a spoolie so you can brush the brows while trimming.
It’s a basic model yet not the only one. How are professional eyebrow scissors different?
Pro expert brow grooming scissors
Trimming and grooming brow scissors for professionals are more like forcipes with blades – spring-loaded scissors that have an ergonomic shape, making the trimming procedure effortless.
The use of professional brow scissors is a bit tricky because of untypical shape and no spoolie. On the other hand, they are free from plastic elements and made exclusively from steel so they will surely serve you longer.
How to use eyebrow shaping scissors?
No matter if you get standard brow scissors or reach for a professional trimmer, the instructions are pretty much the same.
Before trimming, you need to prime your brows: remove makeup and dry the brows so the blade doesn’t slip on. If you’ve got scissors with a spoolie, you need to brush the hairs upwards and then cut the tips straight. Obviously you remove only the hairs that are “in excess” and grow outside the brow contour. A well-shaped blade lets you get fleek brows with a single, precision cut.
Of course you can use tweezers to pluck the unwanted hairs but… you won’t trim the brows that only need to be shortened.
What are the good sides of brow grooming scissors?
- You can brush and trim the brows at the same time.
- You can perfect the brows without removing too many hairs.
- You avoid irritations because you don’t pluck the brows.
- Thanks to well-shaped blades, the procedure is easy.
- Your day-to-day brow filling routine takes less time and effort.
