Are your eyebrows untamed, wild and hairy. If they are, I expect the rest of you is as well.
Why not take a long hard look in the mirror and try to see yourself as others see you.
Uhmm, a bit on the unruly, messy side or don’t you care anyway. I bet you have hairy armpits as well as unshaven legs.
I have news for you - this look is definitely not the look you need to get on in this world.
Whether you like it or not first impressions do count and the first impression people have of you is your appearance. Problem eyebrows can be controlled.
This site is about beautiful eyes so I‘ll leave the rest of your body to you but, what I suggest is that, one of the main priorities to get some order back into that face is to get working with the tweezers.
Start gently from the underside of your brows and follow these eyebrow plucking tips.
Another way to remove stray eyebrows is threading which is an ancient method of hair removal enjoying a modern day revival.

Oh dear, overwaxed, overplucked and overbare. This is what you should not do.
Waxing
As an ex- model, I know that to wax your eyebrows is not advisable, simply because next month the thicker look will be in vogue again.
Problems with waxing
- The eye area is very sensitive and waxing is not only painful but can pull and stretch the delicate skin.
- Side effects, such as red bumps or spots are likely to appear.
- Once you start down this road its extremely difficult to get the growth back to the way it was and you may end up having a brow transplant.
The only reason that I would advise this course of action is if there is excessive hair growth that is hard to manage with simply tweezers. Or for those amongst us who sport a monobrow.
A good beautician would be able to give an accurate assessment on individual cases.
Chinese interpretation of monobrow is that the person will not be blessed with much luck until the age of thirty.

Overplucking
Many of us, at times, are too ham fisted with the tweezers and we are left with the problem of recreating those brows.
In time the hairs will grow back but in the meantime one of the best and easiest ways is to look for a brow kit that can be used to cover and fill in where the hairs have been pulled out.
Take it easy with those brow problems and think it through.

I have hairy brows. I would like to know how can I cut/trimmed it.
Hi Yolanda
I wouldn’t cut your eyebrows unless absolutely necessary. As I cannot see your eyebrow what I suggest you do is to visit a beauty salon and ask for professional advice. If this is too costly, walk into a department store and ask at one of the makeup counters.
My eyebrows are really thin as I pluck them and they are bald at the end, I have to fill them in when I do my make up, they look ok when i’v done them but when I have no make up on they look stupid.
Hi Emma
It sounds as though you have overplucked them, something many of us are guilty of.
You could try to condition them by rubbing some caster oil on them every night, otherwise you may have to resort to permanent makeup.
Many people have had very good results from this procedure, but just make sure you find a reputable beauty salon.
