Tinting eyebrows

If you tint your eyebrows how often do you do them?

Once a month on pay day. Ideally I would get them done every 3 weeks but I am on a tight budget.

About every 6 weeks or so, usually at the same time as I wax legs etc. I do my own tinting, and got semi permanent makeup on my brows, so it gives me a good guide for shape and means I can go a bit longer in between tints. My brows are so completely blond though, that I still need to tint, even with the semi permanent make up.

I do my own (use the same stuff they have at the threading place I go to - Strictly Professional) which I buy on Amazon. I get threaded once a fortnight, and tint at home the same day. I do lashes about once a month.

No idea what went on with my punctuation there, sorry. I have one eye on the TV.

Every 5-6 weeks, I usually have to use brow gel from week 5.

I do them at home. When I remember. About once every 8 weeks?

I also do my own. About every 6 weeks.

If you do it yourself how long do you leave it on for?

Only a couple of minutes. Don't start reading aibu while you wait, you'll get distracted and end up far too dark!

I leave on about 15 minutes. I have perfected my technique. Use an angled eyeliner brush instead of the plastic stick that is provided. Use a clean mascara brush and brush brows downwards. Apply using the angle brush so you have a really good shape on the top edge of your brow. Use the brush to sweep upwards from the lower edge of the brow. I also mix brown and black tint together at a ratio of 2 to 1 before adding the drops to mix together

What brand tint do you use? Have been looking into trying it home for a while

BerylStreep · 05/06/2018 16:47

I use the Colorsport one from Boots.
