Question Posted Wednesday September 9 2009, 5:09 am
ok, so i have never really been to an eyebrow expert or some expert that does eyebrows, like tweezing and styling and all the necessary eyebrow things.
i live in brisbane, and i was wondering if anyone could help me.. can anyone advice me on a cheap but good eyebrow place to get my eyebrows done? i have heard of the Brow Bar at Paddington, but it is a little pricey and half the things they have in the $60 package is not what i need, for example the tinting and that. i have dark eyebrows and i think i may have tweezed that a little too much than i'm suppose to!
and any little tips i should expect or ask etc.
i dont want really thin eyebrows, do i have to tell the expert or they know because they focus on your natural eyebrows?
thank you.

I don't spend that on one haircut! They usually do it at nail salons for between 5-20$ If you go to a spa or a nicer place the price will probably be 20$ or so. Nail salons do just fine, you just have to instruct them to do what you want. A lot of nail salon employees are asian, at least in my area. There is sometimes a language barrier so if you feel that the person doesn't understand you and vice versa, don't get it done there. I usually ask for the middle to be completely waxed and to keep them thick but remove stray hairs. It really isn't a hard process, unless you want them to create an arch etc. If your nervous about it, bring in a picture illustrating a natural look. Most definitely describe what you want.
I suggest waiting a while for the hairs you over tweezed to grow in some (wax can't grasp extra short hairs) and then going. It hurts a little but it's over very fast. If you've been tweezing then your used to the pain and probably won't even feel it too much. Your eye brows will be red after, so don't plan on going anywhere for at least a half an hour. I've heard of people taking advil before to reduce any swelling/pain but I don't find it neccesary. It's really quick and looks better then tweezing in my opinion!
