Eyebrow Tweezing Tips - How to professionally Tweeze Eyebrow?
The excess growth of hairs surrounding the natural line of the orbit (eye socket) should be removed to give a clean and attractive appearance. Eyebrows that are shaped correctly add to the attractiveness of the face. They open the face, and especially the eye area.
If you simply trim the eyebrow hair or shave the hair it should grow back. All the genetic information about length, thickness and color of the hair is in the root. Trimming and shaving will leave the root intact. Tweezing eyebrow hairs removes them from the root. Often hairs tweezed again and again will not grow back. Eyebrow hair grows very slowly so it may take a while.
Some people have very sensitive skin in the eye area. To help them tolerate the discomfort, there are a few things you can try. A light application of baby numbing gel for gums, or an ice cube applied to the area for a few seconds to numb the skin both work well.
Eyebrow Tweezing Tips
- Tweezing or snipping should be done weekly. Attempting to accomplish the entire brow in one sitting will likely lead to mistakes.
- Teething gel for babies can be used to deaden the pain if you find
tweezing very uncomfortable.
- Pull the skin taut and remove hairs as close as possible to the root.
- Pluck in the direction of the growth.
- Shape your eyebrows by plucking from underneath rather than from above to create a natural arch.
- To close the pores of the skin after plucking, use an astringent or soothe irritated skin by applying warm petroleum jelly.
- Avoid tweezing (if possible) around menstruation. It simply hurts more at this time.
- To avoid tweezing into a shape you later regret, first use a white eyeliner pencil to color in the areas under your eyebrows which you think should be plucked.
