There are a few different techniques out there to keep your eyebrows in tip-top shape, but how do you know which to choose? There is an amazing post on LaurenConrad.com that gives you a few pros and cons of each technique. Lauren talks about threading, waxing, and tweezing. I personally prefer threading. I don't like waxing because of three reasons: 1. It hurts 2. I'm allergic to almost all of the waxes and 3. I stay swollen for about 24hrs afterwards, which isn't normal. I shy away from tweezing because it, too, hurts and I don't have the patience for individual brow plucking.
I love threading. Because I have sensitive skin and little patience, threading has proven to be the best way for me to keep my eyebrows from becoming unruly caterpillars. Threading does hurt, but only a little bit. Disclaimer: Don't be like me and wait almost 3 months to get them done, then it will truly hurt like a very bad word. Lesson learned. All the eyebrow artists, as I call them, uses is a cotton thread. They twist the thread and roll it along the skin, pulling out the hairs.
After a small waxing accident, my left eyebrow was left slightly disfigured. I had a dip in my arch where a dip should not be. After about 6 months of threading, my eyebrow artist has somehow, with her magic thread, returned my eyebrows to their matching status. After many years of painful waxing and tweezing, I can honestly say that threading has made my eyebrows look the best they've ever been.
And here is a little extra for you! These are Lauren Conrad's steps to get beautifully shaped eyebrows!
