i am getting married on june 22nd and i just had my eyebrows done and the girl screwed them up
1 eyebrow is higher than the other but that is because she waxed off 1/2 of were your eyebrow is supposed to start!
now these past two days i have been filling in the gap with pencil and shading in and i look like the guy that was partners with HARPO! LOL it kinda funny but in the end I feel like a fool!
can someone give me advice to what i can do to make it look natural

What you can do is get a little bit of Rogaine for men and dab some on where you want the brow to grow. Then just reshape them yourself the day before the wedding. Brush them the wrong way and trim them down to the natural shape. Then tweeze out straggler hairs one by one making sure that the brows start and stop at the same place on both sides. Then brush them the right way with a brown brush and apply a brow gel or clear mascara to hold them in place.
I know the Rogaine thing sounds odd, but it really works and it was a tip given by the Editor-in-Chief of Allure Magazine.

What do you mean by "do" your eyebrows? There are a couple different methods to taking care of them. One is waxing, which can be painful depending upon your skin's sensititivity, not to mention--one slip-up and half of your eyebrow can be gone. I've gotten mine waxed a lot, but lately I've preferred just tweezing. As for knowing how much to tweeze, hold a pencil up the side of your nose, and where the pencil meets your forehead is how long your eyebrows should stretch to. Then hold the pencil from the corner of your eye towards your hairline, and that's the other boundary for your brow. Not to mention, there are templates you can get to make sure you don't over-tweeze, and magazines you can read that feature articles about shaping your eyebrows. But the main problem here is that you would be doing these things against your mother's word. Try talking to her calmly, saying that you won't over-do the tweezing, and not do anything drastic. Hopefully, she'll change her mind and allow you to experiment a bit with shaping.

Rogaine will help brows grow in faster. Here's an article w/ details: http://www.oprah.com/health/beauty/health_beauty_200404_eyebrows.jhtml

In the meantime, maybe try different makeup counters at dept. stores & see what each one offers.
The idea about having a professional do your makeup is an excellent one. Be sure to have a test run or two before the big day.

I would get a thin, corse brisle, eyebrow brush. tap it in some eyeshadow that matches the color of your eyebrows and brush it on. This will make the line look a lot softer and less severe. It wont be as noticable that way. Otherwise you will have to wait for them to grow back. They should grow back before your wedding. Congrats btw.

Use an eyebrow stencil. They sell them at drugstores. Place the shaper over your brow and fill it in. They come in several shapes and you should be able to find one that fits what you currently have. Just remember to use a light touch.
Congratulations-I'm sure your wedding eill be wonderful.

Would it look too bad if you waxed them to match? Otherwise, all you can do is find a pencil that matches your eyebrows as closely as possible and wait for it to grow out.

Never let her do them again. For now try using eyeshadow that is the same color as your hair to fill them in. And pencil to fill in the missing hair. Hope this works and that your hair grows back by your wedding.

well by june 22nd i would say that they would be mostly grown in by then. day before you wedding i would recommend going to a makeup counter and have someone you think has good eyebrows pluck/shape them for you, and if need be, show you how to pencil them in properly. good luck!

too late. never go to an unknown for stuff like that before a special occasion. keep it up wiht the pencil. other than that, you are screwed.

let a professional make up artist do your make up for the wedding, ( if you can afford that) they can fill in your brows and make them look great.
