"Australia's Leading Brow Artist Lands in the U.S.A."

Watch out, Anastasia -- there's a new celebrity brow guru in town. Sharon-Lee Hamilton, brow artist to Australia's stars, is now offering services in Los Angeles and New York City. We caught up with her in Hollywood for her signature shaping -- and to snag some simple tips that can help everyone turn "blah" brows into "wow" brows instantly.

The No. 1 tip she gave us? Pluck every day. And yes, this is true even if you're trying to grow out your brows. "Tending to your brows daily -- or even every few days -- will maintain your shape and ensure they don't become far too overgrown to recognize the line that has been established," says Hamilton. Let your brows go for too many weeks and they'll be so messy that you'll end up giving yourself a hack job when you just go in for a quick "clean-up," she says.

I do this every other day and I have big eyebrows. It really helps maintain my shape and I never look overgrown.

I used to get my eyebrows waxed until I ended up having a really bad reaction that lasted for weeks! I have never plucked my eyebrows myself. It really does hurt! I usually trim off my mono-brow and that's it. I have to admit my brows are a little crazy so I will go have a pro do it the first time and then I will keep up with it daily! Thanks for the great story!

My biggest beauty regret was never getting my brows professionally shaped. I tell everyone I know with daughters to take their girls in as early as the girl is willing. And yes, keeping up with them is a must. Women don't realise how much their eye shadow emphasises those stray hairs!

The number one tip is a winner. It is so much easier to keep brows up when you do it frequently then to have a look one day and see a lot of overgrowth and try to fix it after the fact.
