For the first time in about a year i have had my eyebrows done. I haven't made time for this kind of thing for far too long. How often should I be doing this?

Depends on how quickly the hair comes back through. Every 4-6wks I get mine done. Don't pluck in between or you'll lose the shape. Eventually the regrowth should sync up in its life cycle a bit. I get a tint at the same time as I'm not a big make up wearer and I find it makes a difference.

If I get mine waxed, I need them doing every 4 weeks. With threading I can get away with 6-8 weeks with minimal plucking in between.

Like others say, it depends. My hair is dark and thick. I get them done every 3 weeks but I can sometimes feel like a yeti in the days leading up to the appointment !

How do you decide what colour for the tint?

I am as hairy as a monkey, and get mine threaded once a fortnight. I don’t touch them in between at all.

Tint colour- to suit your skin tone. I'm dark haired but find black tint too harsh (a bit Towie imo). I opt for a dark brown tint that looks like I've made an effort, but not ott. Ask the technician as they'll advise best based on what will suit you best and to your own preference.

I have mine done every 4 weeks - a mix of wax to get initial shape and then tweezing to define.

I was having them tinted at the same time, but I've left off for the last couple of times as I thought it was making me look a bit 'scouse brow'. I use Benefit Gimme Brow.
