Beauty Q&A: How to Deal With an Eyebrow Cowlick

How to Deal With an Eyebrow Cowlick

“Some girls look amazing with eyebrow cowlicks grown out, but if one brow has them and the other doesn’t, it can be hard!” says Phillips. “I’ll start by combing the brow hairs up, let them fall naturally, and then one by one trim the hair to get them even.” This method will allow you to get the length of each hair right, which can help hide the cowlick.

To define and shape your brows with a cowlick, we recommend going in with a long-wearing brow pencil to fill in any sparse areas — particularly where you might have hair growing in an opposite direction. We love the Maybelline New York Ultra Slim Defining Eyebrow Pencil or the Kosas Brow Pop Clean Dual-Action Defining Eyebrow Pencil. Next, set your brows with a long-wearing eyebrow gel or topcoat to help prevent the hairs from moving throughout the day. The L’Oréal Paris Unbelievabrow Longwear Clear Top Coat offers up to 30 hours of hold, dries down completely clear and is totally waterproof.
