ladies, do you pay someone to do your eyebrows or do you do em yourself

[Mrs_P]

I kept tweezers in my purse all the time, I lost them about a month or two ago.. my eyebrows do not approve.... oddly enough my husband doesnt notice, I have not fixed my brows for months and then get them done immaculately at the salon and I say "what do you notice" and he'll nervously ask: "did you cut your hair or new shirt?"

LOL ! My husband does the same thing

I've always done mines myself, sometimes I'll get them done, but I don't really trust many with my eyebrows, I rather do them myself... mines are pretty much how I like them naturally, I just clean them up a little .

I'm going tomorrow...I go every three weeks...I like mine thin...I don't like them to look natural.

I have been doing my own eyebrows since I was 11. I went in to a salon to get them waxed once a few years ago and she said she really couldn't improve them. I took that as a complement and have never sought professional help again.

Don't be afraid to use small scissors to trim them in length, that can be a big help!

I recently had a talk with my 13 year old daughter, things worth spending your money on when money is tight. Eyebrow waxing made the list. What I told her:

Pay for the best eyebrow waxing you can afford. The difference between a cheapo wax at a nail place and a really good wax at a high end salon is less than $10. If you have your brows done every 8 weeks and it costs you $18 ($15 plus tip at a good place), that's just over 25 cents a day. Look at all the women walking around with funky eyebrows, and almost all are thinking they look good. Have someone do it right. Try different people, or ask someone whose eyebrows you really like. Bring a picture for them to go by. If you're really broke, just have them done a few times a year and clean them up yourself between times. When doing them yourself, when in doubt, underpluck so your stylist has something to work with.

(And by the way, no she doesn't get hers plucked. That talk was for future reference, when she's out on her own.)

I would never trust another person with my eyebrows!

I find the easiest way is to draw on the shape as you want to see it with a good eyebrow pencil, and then pluck around the shape you have created

They hurt like all holy hell. LOL

I been trying to stay on top of plucking my eyebrows so I don't have to get them waxed. I like mine on the thicker more natural side and seems like they always make them thinner than I would like.

I always get them thinner and regardless of the salon they always leave me with an arched one and a semi arched kinda circular one, makes me so mad, they also shorten them which pisses me off..... but plucking hurts
