eyebrows


Question Posted Saturday May 14 2005, 8:56 pm

My eyebrows are really hairy! I have super long hairs and I look really bad. My mom won't letme get them waxed..I have asked her many times and she won't let me. I've tried plucking them but they hurt! I don't know what to do because I'm about to be a junior in high school and it's really getting to me! Any advice would be greatly appriciated! Also, don't tell me to sit down and talk to my mom-it won't work..Also, peopple that give crazy answers that want attention, please don't answer!

Pain for beauty!!! Take a shower before you pluck and just maybe make it numb with ice. It takes awhile to get used to the pain but after a while its kinda fun!

Well I herd that if you use like a little brush or just your finger, you just push your eyebrow hairs so they stick strait up, then get tiny nail scissors(little scissors for the skin around your nails) or you could try regular scissors(just be careful) and trim the top, it makes them MUCH less busier. But to shape them youll have to pluck(make sure you pluck right out of your shower when your pores are open, its much less painful) Glad I could help -Kelly<3

Put vaseline on the part you want to pluck off, and then take it off, it lessens the pain. However, waxing the best method, but if your mom says no, listen to her...she knows best ( :

^agreed with your last lil blur. "people that give crazy answers that want attention, please dont answer!" i hate people like that. they should get banned.

anyways - go out to the store and buy nair. its a self waxing system you can use at home. do it when shes not around.. or even go get them done, you pay for them. personally, i dont mind plucking mine mostly because im use to it by now. give it a few more shots and there are even some special tools out there that supposibly make it feel better.. but idk about that! haha.. good luck :)

I have "line bRows"; they'Re baRely theRe, so obviously I pluck them alllllllll away -- and it doesn't huRt me *ONE* bit! If you've neveR done this befoRe, I always Recommend *AFTER* a showeR one night, hold a *WET* and *HOT* cloth oveR youR eyebRows foR about 2 minutes -- the showeR allows youR poRes to open up, Releasing haiR a bit easieR, and then the hot cloth will loosen them up moRe, say if you dRied youR haiR befoRe doing youR bRows, ya know? This still will moRe than likely huRt some, but not *NEARLY* as much as it would have had you *NOT* used the hot cloth. It's kind of a bummeR that theRe's kind of no way aRound the pain at the beginning, but you just have to tell youRself that "pain is beauty", and it will all be woRth it in the end. AfteR youR done plucking them, oR even while you'Re STILL plucking them, the aRea aRound it tuRns a deep puRple and swells -- which is completely fine, and should be *GONE* by moRning, say foR school. AfteR a couple times of plucking them.. let's say ten.. you will have damaged the neRve endings, and the pain will just go away.. to the point wheRe afteR 30 times oR so.. you will have no pain at all -- like me; and that is a good thing!! PeRsonally, I think it's *DEFINITELY* woRth it, but that's just *my* opinion. Also, it's extRemely impoRtant to have good tweezeRs!! I *HIGHLY* suggest getting a slanted tip one; it's Really cRucial that you'Re comfoRtable with youR weapon - *haiR is the enemy*!! I took the libeRty of finding you some sites with tips and additional infoRmation; I think you'll find them useful: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) ---AND--- [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) . Take this slow, foR if you OVERPLUCK, you simply have to wait foR the haiR to gRow in again; and you can only fill in the mistakes with pencil, so take youR time. I wish you all the best of luck! Hopefully I've been of some help to you. Know that you can always come to me if you need anything else.. =D

well if you really want to get them waxed(waxing your eyebrows isnt very expensive...just a couple of dollars maybe) then just save a few bucks and go with one of your friends or older siblings to go get them done. If you don't want to go against what your mom said then at least try and pluck some of the hair in the middle of the two brows! and try to cover up what you can with make up!

either way waxying and plucking will hurt. but look in magazines and pluck them into shape. but make them look natural and not thin thin, or big big. yeah confusing but make it right for your face or ask one of your friends to do it. or go to a place that does them and get them done.

Hmmm use nair or nads or any other forms of cream. Or you can try trimming them.

Help for the plucking-
Try holding an ice cube on the area you want to pluck for a while. It will become a little numb and less succeptable to pain, so it will hardly hurt at all when you pluck.

There are also at-home cool wax strips, which you place on the hairs you want to take out and press it there, and then the hairs will automatically stick to the wax on the strips and they will come out that way.

A GREAT product is from TV (but is available in stores) called Finishing Touch, which is a mini-razor that doesn't need cream, and it doesn't hurt at all, it just removes the hair from where you don't want it by holding the pen-shaped appliance and keeping the rotating razor on top of the hair.
