The slant is the workhorse of brow shaping. A true 25° edge meets flush along its full length, so it grips a hair confidently the moment it touches it — not just at the very tip. If you only ever own one tweezer, this is the one.
A slant edge is the most forgiving precision tool for brows. The angle gives you a long contact surface, so you can grip a hair without aiming perfectly at the point. That's why every makeup artist's kit has a slant in it.
At 25°, the edge is angled enough to give you a clear line of sight on the hair, but flat enough to grip with the full edge length. Steeper angles (35–45°) are harder to control and tend to skip on fine hair; flatter angles lose precision on detail work.
A slant skims over hairs lying flat against the skin — vellus hair, ingrowns, and the finest baby hairs. For those, you need a needle-point tweezer. The two are complementary, not competitive.

For shaping the body of the brow, yes — a slant grips along the full edge and is far more forgiving than a point. For ingrowns and fine vellus hair, a point is better. Most people want both.
25° is the precision-tool standard. It balances grip surface against line-of-sight, which is why it's the most popular angle for hand-aligned tweezers.
Not as well as a needle-point. A slant grips the hair at the surface, but a point can lift the ingrown loop out cleanly without breaking the skin further.
Yes — the angled edge gives you a long contact surface, so you don't have to aim perfectly at the tip. That makes a slant the most forgiving precision tool, and the right starting tweezer for almost everyone.
