Eyebrows – Hair Removal Methods

Posted by on May 28, 2012 in Beauty |

Eyebrows frame our faces and over 65% of our facial expressions depend on them, so they certainly are a vital part of our personality. Therefore, it is very important to keep your major facial features looking great by using some of the three common techniques – tweezing, waxing and threading. We will say our opinions, pros and cons and you should figure out which method works best for yourself!


Waxing is surely the most common method of hair removal, in general. It is the fastest and quite long-lasting method. However, if you want your eyebrows to be waxed, you should look for a licensed cosmetologist to get the best possible service from a person specifically trained in hair removal. Some women (and men) find waxing painful and it may irritate sensitive skin.

Threading is a hair removal technique by using a thin cotton thread to remove unwanted hair. It is quite similar to tweezing, but multiple hairs can be removed at the same time. Threading generally does not does not irritate the sensitive skin. It might be more painful than waxing but this can vary depending on the technique used by your beautician. For this reason you should have your eyebrows threaded by a specifically trained professional. Threading is quite long-lasting, but it can be quite costly.

Tweezing is perhaps the most common way of eyebrow hair removal at home. It is an inexpensive and relatively painless way to get your eyebrows work great, but it requires high maintenance, some practice and time. If you think this is the best method for you, you should buy some high quality tweezers for the more precise eyebrow shaping.

Waxing, threading and tweezing are common methods and they can give you nice results. But, there are some modern treatments to shape your eyebrows, such as HD Brows treatment. It combines several techniques, including threading, waxing and tinting in seven steps. Of course, you should look for an authorized HD Brows salon near to your home.
