I don't understand the reviewer who said that this book is vague. If anything, it contains a level of instruction that is far more detailed than most ordinary people need or want. That's not a criticism. The book is very useful for a layperson, but it is written for a professional in training. It is a textbook on the eyebrow, complete with chapter quizzes, published by an educational publisher. Yes, it might be nice to see color rather than black-and-white photographs, but most cosmetology students are not well-off and using color photos in a textbook increases the price to students. This book is unique. Instead of relying on simple formulae and photos of famous women as some other brow books do, Bush treats the perfect eyebrow as a thing that is unique to each individual. Their other facial features and their goals for their facial appearance determine the direction that their brow-shaping should take. Extremely detailed how-to instructions are included, but to use them it is helpful to read all of the chapters in order. Using the book effectively demands more patience and attentiveness from the reader than does a simpler approach, but if you can do that, then you will learn much more than with any other book on this topic. It will be most useful to someone working in one of the aesthetic occupations (e.g., makeup artist, tatoo artist) who needs to create the ideal eyebrow for a variety of individuals. But it's not expensive, so even if yours are the only brows you will ever shape, it's an unbeatable investment in a truly useful beauty tool.

This book was a huge disappointment. It was very basic and very vague. For example, it would tell you to shape the brow to make their face look longer or shorter, but it wouldn't tell you how to shape the brow in order to do that. All the pictures were small, in black and white, and it was hard to see any detail. I kept on reading on, hoping that I was going to get to the good stuff, but the good stuff never came. I truly felt like I learned nothing and it was supposed to be an instructional book. A waste of money. I was debating returning it, but it doesn't seem worth it to go to the post office and have to pay for shipping it back.

This book is great for understanding how to shape a brow that best suits your face. I believe it is intended for use as a text book in cosmetology and esthetics courses, but it provides great in-depth information for styling your brows. If you're seriously interested in learning what styles and shapes suit your face type this is the book for you. I was thourougly satisfied.

I am a licensed esthetician & certified make up artist and always believe in expanding my knowledge in this field. This book is written in text book fashion, it really teaches the technician how to consult, correct, design & enhance their clients brows. The only thing is I wish was that they had more examples & images in color. It is a great book, as I said a great teaching tool.

This eyebrow book is the best educational
material on the market.
After you have read the book do your career a favor and
take the test provided with the book.
I personally learned so much from this book and I am a
professional in the field of Permanent Makeup. In my opinion
this is a must read book for anyone in the field of makeup.
This is a book you'll keep in your personal library for years to come.
All we can do for now is wait for the next book from this talented author.

This is the text book for the "A Day of Brows" course provided by Grace Albert Aesthetics formerly Adriel Eyebrow Design. This book is a Must Have for all Estheticians and Makeup Artists.

I've done a read thru and just beginning to study, but I've found several helpful tips, and explanations on how to use tools (?) such as templates and stick on templates. Having just graduated from an esthetics course where their book taught only the three lines to mark on the brow and little else. I feel now with a complete study and correct practise that I will be able to do a more professional job.

Is it a textbook for students? I think it is. Is it a good textbook? I don't think it is. When I carefully read the whole book, close it and ask myself what I got from this book. One thing. It is not easy to design a perfect eyebrow. If someone asks if I can design for her face now, I have to say sorry and I must read the book once again or more.
