Tell me about your Eyebrows

How do you take care of them? Do you simply pluck them when needed, or do you get them waxed regularly? Or do something else? Just curious what everyone does and whether I'm "normal" or not....  :p

Re: Tell me about your Eyebrows

  • I generally pluck them so they don't look crazy... but if I have a special occasion coming up I will go get them waxed. I'm very particular about who waxes my eye brows and if they can't fit me in they don't get done.
  • I have very light, fine eyebrows naturally.  On the few rare occasions I notice, I will pluck whatever strays I see - this happens maybe 2x/year.  Otherwise, I leave them natural.

  • I get mine waxed. I try to go every 2-3 wks, but it does sometimes go closer to 4. In between, especially when it goes too long, I have to trim them with eyebrow sissors because they get very long. I try not to pluck them, because  it is easy to screw up the shape.

  • Every couple of months, I get them waxed bc my brows can get out of control, ha. In the mean, I just pluck any strays and sometimes trim them (they get long!).

  • I pluck them, and I also have this little electric trimmer thing that I use.

  • I pluck, usually every other day or so.  I've never had them waxed but I'd like to try it sometime.

  • I get them waxed. I'm really bad at going as often as I should & get mad at myself every morning for procrastinating & not getting it done. Like right now. I try to hide them behind my glasses until I go. LOL.

  • I used to get them waxed every month.  Since I had Kennedy, things like my eyebrows don't matter anymore, and it just is what it is.  I haven't left my house alone yet, and when I do, you can bet it won't be to do something like get my eyebrows waxed.

  • I pluck my eye brows.  Pretty much every day or every other day (my hair grows fast!).  

    In the past I have had my eyebrows waxed and once threaded.  However, I guess my skin is sensitive because I would always break out afterwards.  Plus I am cheap and I hate paying for something when I can do it myself.  

    I have gotten pretty good at shaping my eyebrows over the years... 

    What do you do Lauren?

  • Lol, I guess I am pretty "normal", woohoo! I only pluck my brows, I've never had them waxed before. I'm usually touching them up every other day or so, and I'd never be able to let them grow out enough to get them waxed. But whenever I go to the nail salon, I always see other women coming in to get them waxed and sometimes I feel weird, like I should be waxing them instead of plucking. But plucking definitely works best for me.
  • I wax every few months of so.  No schedule really, just when I'm getting a pedicure or my hair cut and I think, 'an eyebrow wax would be great to throw some money at.'
  • Mine are super light, so I usually get them waxed about once every 3 weeks :-)

  • I get them waxed when I really need it. I should go more often but I dont always have a ride there or the $ to get it done. I only go to my lady in S. Tampa that I have been using for 12 years. The 3 times I didnt go to her I got burnt pretty bad. With tip I pay $10 to have it done
  • I wax about every 3 weeks, and pluck in between if need be.

  • Thread them here and there and pluck between when they get crazy, but I have blonde light brown eyebrows.

  • I usually only pluck mine.  I waxed them within an inch of their lives several years ago, so I've tried to stay away from that route.  I usually neaten them up with tweezers whenever I see the stray hairs coming in (maybe every two weeks or so).

  • I usually get them waxed, but prefer getting them threaded. I like how they shape them and trim them much better. It is less frequently that I find a threading place and its more expensive.
