You have to be very careful while shaping eyebrows by waxing method since it is a very sensitive area. Waxing is a quick and relatively easy alternative to plucking your eyebrows. Although it is generally best to get eyebrows waxed professionally it can be expensive - up to around $15 as a general rule, although salons do differ. If you have a tighter budget, or if you are feeling fairly brave.
Here are some simple steps for you to try at home..
- First the lower section of eyebrow, then the upper area and finally the centre of the eyebrow's hair are removed.
- Very little wax is applied at the time and a small strip is placed on the wax and pulled against or even in the direction of the hair growth.
- You don’t need to use much, and you should not let the wax dry.
- Never wax above the eyebrow, only ever shape from below. Waxing from under the brow will widen your eyes and help to get the line even.
- Gently hold the skin taut and pull off the waxing strip.
- Clean eyebrow area with cotton pad soaked in an antiseptic lotion after the eyebrows are shaped.
- Massage the eye skin with cream.
- To give the gorgeous new eyebrow shape emphasis, use an eyebrow pencil or tinted brow shadow to subtly fill in any gaps, and even out the natural color tone.
