How long does a threading/waxing of eyebrows last?

Have a family celebration in 4 weeks. Have been ignoring my eyebrows for a couple of months since giving birth. Id like to get them done professionally for the celebration but they're starting to annoy me and Im itching to start plucking!

When would you advise getting them done so they look good in 4 weeks time? (Have never had them done before)

No, they'd need to be done again before then IME.

I'd do them a couple of days beforehand, though if you're going somewhere new, I'd go now and if happy, again before the celebration. That way if you don't like the shape, your eyebrows have a few weeks to grow out!

I get mine done every 2 to 3 weeks.

I go about once a month so if you go soon you'll be able to justify another in four weeks!

I would get them done a week before the event. But really depends on the rate of your hair growth, how dark it is, etc.

Would also recommend threading over waxing for a more natural look.

Thanks everyone. Will go next week and again before the event. Quite looking forward to it as i hate my eyebrows and hope they ll look better afterwards!
