Joey Healy is one of the foremost eyebrow specialists in New York. He knows that eyebrows are not "one size fits all."
Healy's been transforming brows unique to each person for years. Here, he shares his best tips for making over your eyebrows depending on what state your eyebrows are in currently (over-tweezed, sparse, thick, unruly, asymmetrical, etc.).

Here are the tools he used:
1. Eyebrow Powder, for filling in thin or patchy spots.
2. Eyebrow Brush (with one angled powder brush and one spoolie brush), for applying powder and combing through hairs.
3. Eyebrow Scissors, for trimming long hairs
4. Tweezer, for tweezing stray hairs.
5. Eyebrow pencils (with a spoolie brush on the end), for correcting the shape of your brows and then filling them in.
6. Eyebrow serum, for growth.
7. Eyebrow highlighter, for underneath the arch of your eyebrow.
8. Clear eyebrow gel, for keeping your eyebrow hairs in place once you've groomed them.

First, use a tweezer (or an eyebrow pencil) and line it up against your face to map out where your eyebrow should begin and end on your face.
Step 1: Hold the tweezer vertically from the outermost part of your nostril straight up to your eyebrow. The place where the tweezer hits is where the head (or innermost part) of your eyebrow should begin.
Step 2: Hold the tweezer horizontally at the top of each brow to make sure they're at the same height. If they don't match up, you can fill in the lower eyebrow to match the higher one.
Step 3: Hold the tweezer diagonally from the outermost part of your nostril to the outermost part of your eye. Where the tweezer extends past your eye is where the tail (or outermost part) of your eyebrow should end.
