What age to wax eyebrows?

My daughter (9) has approached me about her eyebrows and said they are making her feel self conscious as they are growing together in the middle.

They are not actually meeting in the middle they are just slightly growing inwards but you know what kids are like!

A few weeks ago when she first talked to me I tweezed a few stray hairs for her and tidied the middle up and she felt better about it but obviously these have started to grow back so we are back to square one.

I have made her promise me not to take to her eyebrows with tweezers or anything and always talk to me and I will help her, but I'm also no expert and am the owner of some 00s tweezed to death brows.

I'm wondering whether it's worth asking my beautician to take a look and do a mini wax on them so she feels more comfortable and is less likely to want to mess with them herself.

Would you say 9 is ok for a little tidy up between the brows?

I wouldn't wax them! My mum waxed my brows starting when I was about 11 and they never really have grown back fully. Is your beautician young with full on trend eyebrows, or is she older with overplucked brows herself (and more likely to overdo it with client's brows)? Probably best to just stick with the tweezers for now.
