The world of beauty and skincare can be super daunting for new users. It’s easy to get lost in the variety of beauty tools available for us to pick, pluck, and choose from! But worry not, this guide will help you to determine what the best scissors for trimming your precious brows are, deep diving right into the debate of ‘curved’ or ‘straight’! 
.

Before we begin:

What Are Brow Scissors?

Eyebrow scissors are special tools made specifically to cut brow hairs with ease. These scissors are different from nail scissors - as nail scissors have thick blades to cut through the free edge of nails. Meanwhile, brow scissors have thin, straight blades that are better for one’s hair. These are also different from tweezers as they allow people to trim and shape the length of their brow hairs without plucking them out completely!

What Scissors Should You Use For Your Brows - Curved or Straight?

Some may say “tomayto, tomahto,” but the shape of one's brow scissors are crucial in determining how they perform when used for different purposes.
.
Some people prefer curved (nail) scissors as they’re thicker and can follow the curved shape of a brow better, but we would suggest straight scissors. This is because straight scissors are way more precise and easier to cut brow hair with! The precision of straight scissors aid to make the process of brow trimming more effortless. They help to better guide one’s eye to exactly where you want to trim your hair, giving your finished outcome a more professional look. 
.
.
Of course, a lot of this comes down to the quality of the products you use and your technique for brow shaping! Having high quality tools can make all of the difference when it comes to long term use.
