The amount of pain depends on how much hair you have. If you have a lot, it'll hurt more. If you barely have any, it'll sting for a little but then it'll just go away.


The skin will turn red after, but that goes away in about a day.

It stings a little, but it doesn't really hurt as bad as you probably think.
It's a lot less painful than plucking in my opinion. With plucking you do it one hair at a time so it stings worse than when you do them all at once.
It depends how long the sting lasts with who you go to to get it done. I used to go to this one salon and one of the ladies there would put a damp washcloth over your eyebrow after she waxed it and that took the sting away immediately. If where you go doesn't do anything like that, the sting will last just a few minutes.

You probably want to keep your eyes closed while you get it done, especially if, like me, you have long eyelashes. There are those not-so-pretty stories of girls eyelashes getting stuck to the wax from not keeping them closed. I'm not trying to scare you, just give you a tip.

It will look good right away. It will probably be a little red that first night, but by the next day you should be fine appearance wise. Since this would be your first time and you're not used to it, it may take longer for the red to go away, I'm not sure. If you're going some place nice (a dance, party, dinner with friends, etc.) then I would get it done at least one day before the event.

heyyy!! Don't worry i got my eyebrows done for the first time when I was your age and now its like a constant thing for me.. Honestly its obviously going to hurt a little bit haha its not going to feel like an awesome massage or anything.. but thats the obvious. I can take pain and its such a quick thing that I go in there like whatever i don't care as long as they look good. You know when you get tape stuck on your arm or somewhere where there is hair and then you rip it off.. it doesn't really hurt right we just say it does but its like a 1 second pain and goes away right after.. Since its your first time I'm not gonna lie to you it might hurt a little bit more than the rest of the times to come..but not really.. and since its your first time it might be a teeny bit red after but if your lucky it wont be.. like it wasn't for me...It should look perfect right after because if it doesn't its not all of a sudden going to appear to look better in like 10 minutes haha.. you can always pluck them a bit to fix them up as i always do because sometimes they miss a spot.. (p.s when they put the wax on its like hot.. but i actually like it, it kinda feels nice haha )

Good luck and dont be afraid its like 123 and done.
