Eyebrow plucking virgin

2 replies

Need a bit of help.
Have half decent eyebrows so have never plucked them, but recently (as other areas start to wrinkle and hair begins to grey), thought I'd give it a go.
So after a hot shower tonight (isn't that supposed to make it easier?), started to pluck.

Only managed one before I gave up with the pain........!

Any tips ? will it continue to hurt this much if I keep on doing it ? should I get professional help first time ?!?!

How on earth do women keep their eyebrows so neat if it hurts so much !!

Mine don't hurt at all and I feel painSmile.

The more you do it the less it hurts.

I've only had mine done professionally once and too much was removed. The hairs grow back at unusual angles and so I have to remove those ones now which makes my brows thinner than I'd like.

Only remove a hair if you're really sure you want it gone for good and do it very gradually (not literally pulling gradually!) so you can see the difference it makes to the shape of your eyebrow.
