Here is a step-by-step guide on how to tweeze your eyebrows:
-
Gather your supplies. You will need a pair of sharp tweezers, a good mirror, and some natural light.
-
Prepare your eyebrows. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat it dry. Use a cotton swab to apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to the area around your eyebrows to help remove any oils or dirt.
-
Map out your brow shape. Use a brow pencil to lightly sketch out the shape you want your eyebrows to be. Start by drawing a straight line from the bottom of your nose to the outer corner of your eye. This line should intersect with your eyebrow where it should end. Then, draw a line from the bottom of your nose to the arch of your eyebrow. This line should intersect with your eyebrow at its highest point. Finally, draw a line from the bottom of your nose to the inner corner of your eye. This line should intersect with your eyebrow where it should begin.
-
Start tweezing. Begin by plucking the hairs that are outside of your mapped-out brow shape. Pluck hairs in the direction of hair growth to minimize breakage. Grip the hair as close to the root as possible and pull it out in a swift, steady motion.
-
Tweeze sparingly. It is better to err on the side of caution and tweeze too few hairs than too many. You can always tweeze more hairs later if you need to.
-
Soothe your skin. After you have finished tweezing, apply a cool compress to the area to help reduce redness and swelling. You can also use a moisturizer to soothe your skin.
Here are some additional tips for tweezing your eyebrows:
- Use a magnifying mirror to get a closer look at the hairs you are plucking.
- Pluck hairs in a well-lit area.
- If you are feeling pain, take a break and come back to it later.
- Do not tweeze over the same area multiple times. This can irritate your skin and increase the risk of ingrown hairs.
- If you have sensitive skin, you may want to try waxing or threading instead of tweezing.
Tweezing can be a great way to shape your eyebrows and remove unwanted hairs. However, it is important to be careful and to use the proper technique to avoid irritation and ingrown hairs.
If you are not comfortable tweezing your eyebrows yourself, you can always go to a professional for a shaping.
