Eyebrow help

I have naturally thick eyebrows which I like until they turn into bushy shapeless slugs

That’s when I usually go and get them threaded but I don’t want that for myself bc it’s way too archy n feminine

I watched a video where a guy just ran a beard trimmer w a 2 guard across them

Did that w comb bc couldn’t find guards

Marginally better but kinda greyish because hair thinned out to reveal untanned unexfoliated skin underneath

How do I get Theo James/Oscar Isaac type brows please, everything I see about achieving this comes from an additive perspective when really I need to subtract
