How to Shape Your Eyebrows: Tweezing, Waxing and Threading.
Shaping eyebrows is a necessity for a perfect look. However, what is the best tool to use to shape your eyebrows: tweezers, wax or threading?
Knowing the correct way to shape your eyebrow is half the battle. So how do you achieve the perfect brow once you know how? There are several solutions to this, you can tweeze, wax, or use threading.
Tweezers: Everybody has tweezers in their medicine cabinet. You use tweezers to remove one hair at a time. Tweezing can be very painful and may cause ingrown hairs. Tweezing your eyebrows is great when you are in between waxing appointments.
Waxing: Waxing is when hot wax is applied and a strip of cloth is applied and then ripped off, taking the hairs with it. There are two ways to wax your eyebrows. You can get a home waxing kit from a beauty store or you can go to a salon and have your eyebrows waxed. When you remove eyebrow hair by waxing your results will last about 4 to 6 weeks. You must have a quarter-inch of hair for it to be removed effectively with waxing. There are some negatives to waxing: the wax can be too hot and cause burning or begin to age the skin. When you wax, the top layer of the hair can be damaged or removed in the process; over time this can cause wrinkles and fine lines.
Threading: Is a fairly new process in the states that started in eastern countries. Threading is when the consultant twists two pieces of thread together and removes facial hair by catching it in the twist. Threading is supposed to be less painful and can last about 2 to 4 weeks. Threading is usually less expensive then waxing and causes less damage as well. Unfortunately, it is hard to find a professional threader outside a big city.
To finish off those brows, use a little eyebrow makeup and you truly have the perfect eyebrows!
