There are many different types of eyebrow trimmers available on the market. Different trimmers can be used for different facial grooming needs. From simple to most complex, the different types of brow trimmers include scissors, electric, and an all-in-one facial trimmer.
One of the simplest types of eyebrow trimmers are scissors. Technically, any old scissors will do the job, but there are some scissors specifically designed for eyebrows. They are typically small and slightly angled for comfort and ease of use. This type of brow trimmer is great for men and women who are happy with their natural brow shape, but want to trim down some of the longer eyebrow hairs. Long eyebrow hairs tend to stick out and distort even the most beautifully shaped brows.
Electric eyebrow trimmers are another great option for brow grooming. These are the next step up, technologically speaking, from scissors in the eyebrow trimming market. These trimmers tend to be more expensive than scissors, but they also save time and energy compared to trimming with scissors. The electric trimmers may be powered by cord, battery, or a combination of the two. In its simplest form, the electric brow trimmer acts just like a smaller version of an electric beard or hair trimmer. There is a comb-like barrier that feeds the hair to the blades at a specific length so as not to over-cut.
Eyebrow trimmers are also available with shaping attachments for women and men who want to shape and trim their eyebrows. These trimmers are electric, but also allow different grooming attachments to be used. A user starts by trimming the eyebrows to avoid any long hairs sticking out and disrupting the shape of the brow. Once the brows are trimmed, the eyebrow shaper can be attached to complete the grooming process by removing stray hairs. Technically, no one needs to shape or trim their eyebrows, but some people may feel more confident when they like the way their eyebrows are shaped.
All-in-one eyebrow trimmers are on the opposite spectrum of complexity for eyebrow grooming compared to scissors. These trimmers don't do anything more for the eyebrows than trimming and shaping. They usually come with attachments, however, that address all or some of the rest of the facial grooming needs. These other needs include hair trimming, beard and mustache trimming and shaping, as well as ear and nose hair trimming.
