Eyebrow Plucking

We all know that eyebrow plucking can be a pain if done improperly.  However, the result of correctly shaped eyebrows will have a noticeable effect on the attractiveness of the face.  So getting it right is the key.

To avoid painful, improperly shaped eyes; learn how to pluck eyebrows the correct way.  Eyebrow plucking can be simple and effective when using the following steps:

First determine a suitable eyebrow shape for your face before your start.  Brush the eyebrows up and in the direction of the outer lid with a small brush to remove any powder or scaliness.  Brushing also you too see where you want hair to be removed to prepare the hair to be shaped correctly.

Saturate two cotton pledgets or a towel with hot water and place over brows.  Allow them to remain on eyebrows long enough to soften and relax the eyebrow tissue. You may also soften brows by rubbing an emolient cream into them.

Next prepare to remove hair with a sterile tweezer.  Start by removing hair between brows first.  Eyebrow shaping always done between the brows and the above the brow line first.  Hair under the brow line is usually the most sensative. Frequently sponge the area with antiseptic as you move along.

When tweezing be sure to hold skin taut.  Grasp each individual hair with a quick motion and pull in the direction that the hair is growing.  DO NOT go against the grain.  Do this procedure as quickly as possible noting that with each strand pulled area becomes increasingly sensitive. 

After you have successfully achieved the eyebrow shaped that you desire sponge the brows and surrounding skin with astringent to contract the skin. If your hair is sparse in areas; use an eybrow pencil where necessary to fill in spaces where hair is absent. 

Eyebrow plucking can be done weekly.
