Beautiful Eyebrows
How to have beautiful eyebrows
Your eyebrows add strength and definition to your face. Well groomed eyebrows enhance your beauty.
Unless you have very sensitive skin, waxing is a quick and relatively easy alternative to plucking your eyebrows. Threading is the best method as per indian beauticians.Although it is generally best to get eyebrows done professionally.
Eyebrow Waxing
Buy a professional waxing kit - basically a jar or tub of wax which can be warmed up in boiling water and applied with a small applicator or spatula, and (usually muslin) removal strips. Each product varies slightly, so be sure to read the manufacturers directions carefully.
1) Preparing the Eyebrow
apply an astringent such as witch hazel to anesthetize the sensitive skin under the brow. Work out your natural brow shape by standing several feet away from a mirror, and
2) Applying the Wax
Warm up the wax to optimum temperature and use the small spatula to apply a thin layer of wax to the growth. Make sure that you only use a small amount of wax on the spatula to avoid the wax dripping when it is applied. Apply wax with the hair growth under the eyebrow, (i.e. in the same direction that the hair grows in). You don’t need to use much, and you should not let the wax dry.
3) Removing the Hair
This is the painful bit! Ouch!!
Tweeze Your Brows
Which Tweezer?
Thin Tip: Good for grasping small, fine hairs, and plucking ingrown hair.
Slanted Tip: Gives maximum control.
Square Tip: Best used for removing coarse hairs or several hairs at a time.
1. Tweeze immediately after showering or apply a hot washcloth to loosen hair follicles.
2.Tweeze under the brow first, plucking in the direction of the growth.
Hint: If your plucking becomes too painful, apply a little anbesol (yes, that pain reliever for teeth also numbs the brows)
