wax? thread? shave? cut? tattoo? what else is possible in having a beautiful eyebrow? i like to try the threading method but i heard that it is quite painful. so i just stuck in having it shaved.

I pluck mine, bit i overpluck them so have thin over-plucked eyebrows. Shaving is a bad idea, you'd have to do it regularly to stop stubble growing back, plus it would be hard to shape the eyebrows well with a razor. Waxing is ok but the waxing action apparently ages your eyelids and makes them droopy, as does plucking! Threading is the way to go aaparently, it creates a lovely eyebrow shape, is quick and easy and i've heard that it doesn't hurt that much. I'm thinking of having mine tattooed with semi-permanent make up to stop them looking so thin!

as for me, i just use the traditioinal plucking, shaving it would make it worse, having the hair grow much thicker than it was shaved

I pluck my eyebrows on the occasion that it is needed. Luckly for me I don't have to do much with my eyebrows because the are a naturally beautiful shape on hteir own.

Hello gwenmari! Sorry to say, but shaving is the worst method for having beautiful eyebrows. And threading is the best method for having beautiful eyebrows. Some do say threading is painful, but in reality it isn't so painful. When I first got threading done for my eyebrows, it diodn't pain at all and next time too. But once when I gave a long gap between threading for the fifth time, it really pained. So if you get threading done regularly (once in 10-15 days), it wouldn't be painful.
