How To Tweeze Your Eyebrows

Tweezing or plucking the eyebrows can a tricky job as some of the hair won't grow back. Here are some steps to follow to avoid disaster.

Difficulty: Average

Time Required: 10 minutes

1. Pick a natural light source for your tweezing.

2. Place a warm washcloth over brows for 5 - 10 minutes.

3. Exfoliate brow with a washcloth to help free up any (potential) ingrown hairs.

4. Pull skin taut and remove offending hairs as close to the root as you can AND in the direction of the growth.

5. Close pores with an astringent when you have completed the session.

Tweezing or snipping should be done weekly. Attempting to accomplish the entire brow in one sitting will likely lead to mistakes.
Teething gel for babies can be used to deaden the pain if you find tweezing very uncomfortable.
Avoid tweezing (if possible) around menstruation. It simply hurts more at this time.
