Eyebrows? Pluck or wax?
So do you get them waxed or plucked? Also there is that string or thread they call it. I would like to try I just do not see how the thread can remove hair! Which do you prefer?
|
I pluck--not much (overplucked eyebrows are creepy looking), but, just enough so I don't look like I have super manbrows.
|
I pluck mine because I dislike wax lol. I've never used it, but it smells funny and looks painful so I think I'll stick with my tweezers.
I've alsoo heard of that threading thing though and id like to try it if it works! |
I pluck mine and trim them with fingernail scissors so they don't look bushy. I honestly don't really know what I'm doing, though, but it seems to work. xD
It can be really difficult with blonde eyebrow hairs to see them, though. xD |
Threading is supposed to be painless. Warning to everyone: It's not... I think it's more painful than plucking!! >3< Yikes, I was trying so hard not to tear up from the pain when I had it done xD
I wax. Over and done with it in two quick bandaid pulls and plucking a few stray hairs. I DO get it professionally done, though, I'd mess it up! I only wax once in a blue moon, though. My natural eyebrows aren't SO bushy and actually look pretty good with my face. Cutting them with cuticle scissors to shape them is usually the only thing I need to do. |
How about something different and painless? I shave mine! xD I take one of those new dispoable razors with the nice lubriucating strip on it and I shave the uni-brow part when in the shower. It's actually pretty accurate. Now I don't get the hairs that are a little out of place in other spots but I am not that picky as long as I don't look like Bert from "Bert & Ernie"! xD Plus I like having thick eyebrows. I don't like the "over-plucked" look that I see many women do. I once had my eyebrows waxed at the beckoning of my friend and hairdresser. I almost jumped off the table she had my lie down on and it hurt like...well....really bad, ok? And than to put the cherry on top, my husband didn't even notice even when I asked him if I looked different? And come on men, it was really different than before. xD

I pluck, by myself with tweezers. I despise thick caterpillar eyebrows XDD
And those little small onces ._. Or when people shave it ALL off and draw it back on with eyelinerr :p I just like them normal ^^ |
I do neither. Luckily, I don't have scary eyebrows, though. :3
|
I just kind of pluck between them. XD
I think I ruined them in the past so I'm afraid to do anything myself. I should really find a place near here to do them for me... Luckily, I have bangs that cover them nicely till then. |
I pluck, just to give my eyebrows definition. If I didn't I'd have two thick shapeless lines of hair.
|
I used to pluck mine until I got them waxed. And now I just get them waxed, but not often.
Usually just whenever I feel like having thin eyebrows again. |
Wax! Definitely wax. I'm afraid if I'll over pluck them or make them some odd shape so I get them done at Benefit after month or so.

I have mine plucked and then I trim then to keep then from looking manly and stuff llike that. I have been thinking about waxing but it would be a very small space to wax and that area is very sensitive to pain. Plus if the wax irritates my skin or my skin turns all red or puffy from the wax, I am fucked because it would be right NO MY FACE and everybody could see and it would be REALLY embarrasing. I have never heard of threading, I will have to look it up. :]

Wax all the way. It's over and done with quickly and doesn't hurt much after it's been done whereas plucking takes forever. If I'm going to waste that much time, I'd rather waste it doing something that I enjoy.

I do nothing to them, I like the shape of mine.
|
^People who do nothing to them are very lucky to have nice shaped eye brows. I think mine are much more maintainable than they used to be.
I pluck mine often as I have dark hairs. I do not alter the shape of them though. Just the ones growing in the middle of my eyebrows and the ones under and around my eyebrows that are really noticeable. Saying that, I look very closely. I'd love to try and wax them though, but I wouldn't trust another person to do it. |
I pluck mine with tweezers. Been doing it for years. I had them waxed when I was much younger and NEVER AGAIN will I do it! Never mind the twinge of pain because that I can easily get over but within a few minutes, there were these small red bumps all underneath them! My eyebrows SCREAMED that they were just done. I can't wax anywhere. Not even my legs or anything. So yes, tweezing. And although I have fairly dark hair, I have super thing hair, so I pluck just for shape and I have to fill in with a pencil. Not DRAW ON, mind you, but just darken. I've been doing it for so long no one actually knows that I add in pencil - besides, I NEVER draw with one single line. There's a little more technique to it than that. I don't want those creepy looking things on my face. >.<

In the past, I would get them waxed. (I've only had it done about three or so times).
But now, I generally just pluck them. However, I can't really do it by myself so I just let my Mom or best friend Becca do them, since she loves to cause me pain and likes making people look pretty. I would like to try threading, but I'm very nervous about it since I've seen people go through it and come out crying. So, I dunno. I'll probably give it a shot. Besides, how much could it possibly hurt? |
I started plucking my eyebrows in high school and have been doing it ever since. I don't take off a lot, just enough to take away the stray hairs and make them look smooth. I don't think those pencil thin brows would look very good on me. >.< I've never tried waxing or the string thing, I've only done them myself at home.
|
I pluck. It's usually just the odd stray hairs. XD
Have never waxed or shaved them before, but I also want to try threading. o: |
I pluck mine, I can do it by myself and it isn't as painful.
Wax just hurts like hell afterwards and I tried threading once. My mother did it for me and it was really painful. I'm not sure if it was 'cause it was my mom's first time at threading or 'cause it is truly painful. |
Pluck. Though sometimes laser hair removal really sounds like a good idea... Maybe if I win the lottery.
|
I use wax. I don't know why, but it doesn't really hurt, to me plucking is more painful. :\ (I don't get why, waxing is basicly just plucking with sicky stuff and more hairs getting pulled. )
