Well I guess it's for the girls mainly - do you wax your eyebrows?

I do religiously. It's time to go and get them done again.

They stay so nice and clean for about 2 weeks and then wham all of a sudden they seem all grown in again and it just drives me crazy.

I get mine done at JCPenney's - there is a girl there who has waxing down to an art. I won't go to anyone but her.

So girls...yes? No?

Or do you pluck?

plucking sucks!

no, I was blessed with well-shaped, natural eye-brows..that are not too thick...and they are light in color..the only thing I do to change my eye-brows is that I darken them...

My boss has never waxed her eyebrows either. She is a blond though too so they are lighter and if they are 'grown in' they aren't as noticeable as mine are.

No...I pluck...my eyebrows were never that bad anyway, so waxing would be a waste of time. Besides, I'm one of those flinchy flip-outs and I'd never go through with it :lol:

Waxing hurts for like..half a second and that's it. I dont have the patience or tolerance to pluck. Then you sneeze, your eyes water, you sneeze more, then your nose runs...

not a pretty site. :D

I pluck, it doesnt hurt. i taught myself how to about 2 years ago. ive got them arched and narrowed so i dont worry about shaping them anymore, i just pluck out the extra ones once a week or so.

I pluck them once in a while. I have nice eyebrows, though, so there's not much of a need for me to do so, I just pluck the stray eyebrows when I need to. :D

I leave mine alone - no plucking, no waxing. If they were in bad shape, then I'd probably go for it, but they've always looked nice just as they are.

Wax. Plucking takes too much time, and I can't endure little pokes of pain. *shudders*

Nope. There are a few I cut because they never go the right way, but waxing isn't my thing.

I don't wax or pluck, but it might be time to start.

Does it look like I'm getting a unibrow?

I don't. I think my brows look OK the way they are. This reminds me though of my 5th grade teacher. She would pluck all her eybrows out then take one of those pencils and draw new ones on. I remember at the time thinking how stupid it looked.

Ooo, that's a little more than what it costs here. Where I used to live, it only cost $5 to have em done :D

No waxing, no plucking... I have really nice natural eyebrows... my mom said she would shoot me if I ever did anything to them.

Yesssssssss. I must. Well... they usually aren't that bad, but I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my eyebrows for some reason.

I get mine waxed whenever I can, otherwise I am forced to pluck. I have dark blonde eyebrows, so it wouldn't be terribly noticable if I didn't do anything to them, but they drive me insane when they get too out of shape.

I get mine waxed every couple of months or when I can. In between those months, I just pluck them to keep them in shape. :lol: sounds like a physical activity.

I pluck, but now and then I get out the wax and do them myself. I dont let them get too out of control since I pluck... so getting out the wax seems like a chore. Especially since it takes so long to get it the right temperature- and then getting it all off. Ugh.

I tweeze mine (plucking is what you do to a chicken lol) i can't be bothered to go get them waxed...tweezing doesn't hurt me either! also, my eyebrows aren't that dark and i have long bang hair, so it doesn't matter tooo much!

I've always plucked mine and they seem to suit my face quite nicely...I would like to get them nicely waxed/shaped sometime but I cannot grow them out, I just get frustrated by how gross they look and tweeze them right away lol.

I get mine waxed by my hairdresser Unis. I have to get em waxed like every 2 or 3 weeks, they grow fast!

I hate my eyebrows, I went crazy plucking a few weeks ago and they actually look alot better than before. I think thin eyebrows are ugly and I think thick ones are gross, so mine have to be just right.

It's painful though, especially when I get a few of my eyebrow hairs at one time. That hurts the most... it makes my eyes water.

this girl who was in my 7th grade class does that. and she draws them really thin. and then she draws a line from the end of her eye connecting to the end of her eye brow. it....doesn't look nice.

I used to get my eyebrows waxed but then I got a sugar wax kit on sale for like $5 now I do them myself. It's a good investment.
