The Aftermath

Any untidy hairs left over after waxing can be easily plucked out using a set of good tweezers. You should apply a soothing balm like tea tree oil onto the area afterwards. And you should avoid direct sunlight, acid based facial treatments, and liquid makeup for several hours.
To give the gorgeous , charming new eyebrow shape highlighting, use an eyebrow pencil or highlighted brow shadow to delicately fill in any gaps, and even out the natural color tone. Don’t worry if you make mistakes, even if you have bald patches or empty spaces. It is well said that practice makes perfect, and anyway, the hair will have grown back before you know it.

Removing the Hair

This is really the painful and uncomfortable job which is going to initiate at this time.
You should not 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. This will make you look younger and much more glamorous, attractive and sensational if done correctly and in a right way. As soon as it is applied remove the wax against the hair growth, but be sure that in the opposite direction that the hair grows in. This is done by gently smoothing a piece of cotton muslin over the waxed area, pulling the skin taut with one hand, and pulling the muslin off with the other.
The best and fine idea is that to take a little hair off at a time, particularly if you have comparatively this growth. You will be stunned, astonished and surprised how much difference a little hair removal will make to your appearance.

Use only a small amount of wax on the spatula to avoid the wax dripping when it is applied. Apply wax with the hair growth under the eyebrow, preferably you should apply in the same direction that the hair grows in. You don’t need to use much, and avoiding the wax dry.

Final planning

Working out the curve of the eyebrow

You can work out where the highest point of the curve/ arch should be by holding a ruler from the edge of the nostril past the outer edge of the iris (the colored part of the eye) and up to the eyebrow. Mark the spot with a dot.

Working out the length of the eyebrow

Take a ruler and place parallel to your nose, and level with the inner corner of the eye, to work out where the brow should begin. If your eyes are close together, make the gap between the brows wider. If your eyes are far apart then in this case don’t wax the start line of the brow too much so that they are closer together. Mark the correct point with a dot.

Preparing the Eyebrow

First of all brush up your eyebrow into place with a clean toothbrush or mascara wand, to define their natural shape. Than, apply an astringent such as witch hazel to anesthetize the sensitive skin under the brow. After that work out your natural brow shape by standing several feet away from a mirror, and following these simple steps
