uhh..i go to the salon. its about 10-ish dollars and it doesnt really hurt. your eyebrow area will probably get red and sore for a few hours, though.

I go to Hair Cuttery.. I go around the same time that I would go to get my hair cut, so I get my eyebrows waxed first, then they would cut my hair... and by the time they're done with my haircut the redness is gone. Since it would be your first time.. it will probably be sore and red. They usually put aloe on it or you can put ice on it at home. It does look nice if they do it right. There are also nail places you can get your eyebrows done at.

i've never had my eyebrows waxed, but i've done threading.
i'm pretty sure you can find it at hair salons

DO IT!

It's the best $10 bucks I ever spent! It'll be a little uncomfortable at first. But after a few more visits...and the beautiful outcome...it's worth the little pain for beauty. biggrin.gif

i went to the hair cuttery near my place and they screwed up my eyebrows. _dry.gif they were so uneven. I liked threading because it came out cleaner. Personally I think threading hurts more just because it's more than one pain at a time? I dont know.. and waxing is just one swift pain... confusing. pinch.gif

i wanna try get my eyebrows waxed. i hate plucking
no-name
i get the waxxed usually
xo_lovalicious_xo
after you have it waxxed once, do you pluck it when it grows back or do you go back to the salon at times??

but.. how do i tell my mom???

she hasnt gotten hers waxxed yet..

she plucks them..

so when we go, i think we can both get them done..

when did you guys get them waxed? what age?

I started to get mine waxed when I was 12.
I'm used to it.

i just got mine waxed yesterday. as most people have sad, it doesn't hurt that much. and surprisingly, my eyebrows didn't get sore and red.

i got mine done at a Bubbles Salon and it was only 15 bucks, and you get a free compact. and they did a pretty good job too. especially because i'm lazy and i hate doing my own eyebrows.

it hurts if you`re not good with pain. i love getting mines waxed.

I get them done when I get a facial. It might the hurt the first couple times, but you get used to it after that. It's much faster and easier than plucking, so it's definitely worth it.

i'm *addicted* to getting my eyebrows waxed.
i get them done at least every 6-8 weeks.
for me, eyebrow waxing doesn't hurt at all... it just makes my eyes water.
it's sooo worth it and it feels so clean afterwards!
mine do end up being a bit red after, but it goes away if you use some acne cream that you can buy at a salon (it's called stilligel).
StarryEyedSurprize
I guess everyone else probably answered all your questions.. but yeah I do it and it doesn't hurt me.
kimmytree
Oh God. I've had mine done once or twice at a salon... and i'll never do it again.

They always make my eyebrows too thin, or shape them wrong. mellow.gif

I got mine done a few weeks ago and loved it! It wasn't as painful as I had anticipated and it was only ten dollars. It took maybe 5 minutes and lasted for a while.
__bestkeptsecret
I got mine first done when I was like 13 or something, and the first time, I thought it hurt like hell. And I really didn't want to go back, but then when I saw that they looked good, I figured, screw it. And now, I'm used to it, and I just flinch whenever I get them done.
Dreamers
I hope i can get mine done, they're bushes! if i didn't secertly pluck them i'd be miserable lol.my friend gets her done and she says that you can maintain them at home but i don't think i could. lol
Aerjae
No, but my friend whose a guy did it for his girlfriend. Yah, it hurt.
sexciibaybgrl
i've never gotten my eyebrows waxed, i pluck my eyebrows with a tweezer so i dont knoe how it feels to wax yer eyebrows or ne thing but im pretty shure it'll be red jus for a lil while then it'll go away
happinessx
I've never done it, and I don't really want to. It scares me. Any form of waxing does. Ahhh. >-<

It's actually not painful at all &I'd recommend it since your eyebrows will be looking great afterwards.
miss kate x33
it doesnt hurt me :]
This Confession
eh just remember when their just starting to grow back and you can't do anything about them it looks horrible.

I went to this party once and some girl had it at that point, I couldn't help but notice it pinch.gif
BrokenDream
Yes I've done it. My Mom did though. I don't trust other people with my eyebrows. Yeah, it does hurt a little. The area where you got it waxed will turn red for a couple of mins. Like 30.

I first [and only] got mine done when I was 12.
I was visiting NYC, and we stopped into that huge expansive make-up store Sephora [oh my, it was Heaven, and it took a pretty penny away from me.]
And in there they had a part of the store called "Anastasia Beverley Hills", which was this whole huge saloon dedicated to waxing eyebrows. And my mom dared me to try it.
It costed $30 [Way to much to spend...but worth it.] and it was really cool cause they explained what they were doing, and some tips.
They did it so good the first time, I was able to maintain them myself [with plucking.].

=]
Goodluckkk.

it hurts the first time i think cause you're not used to it. i get them threaded now and that always hurts!
thanhmai
if you have hella thick eyebrows, do wax.
otherwise, if theyre thin, go for threading or just pluck them. threadings basically the same as plucking only way faster

i hate wax because
1) my eyebrows arent even bushy enough to need it
2) it makes your eyebrow area all red and funnylooking after
3) i dunno. theres no 3.
Stefanny
I heard it doesn't hurt as much as your legs, but that's what I HEARD.

My mom won't let me wax 'em. I just tweeze.
evaleen
I loved getting my eyebrows waxed. The lady who does them for me plucks the hairs she misses and even trims it so that they look pretty. ^-^

At first, it'll hurt and it'll be pinkish. They first time I did it was in 6th grade[dunno what my mom was thinnking] and people thought I was wearing make-up lol

But after a few more waxes, it won't hurt much.

And I say, when the hair starts to grow back. Try to pluck it. And then if your eyebrows grow back too much, get another wax. I go once a month.

i don't get them waxed i get them threaded at the hair salon i always go to, and the first time it kinda hurt and i teared up and my dad saw me right after i got it done and he was like wtf happened to you i'm like don't ask. but now its okay and i like how my eyebrows look after =]
showstopper!
Well, it hurts when you first get them done. But later, you get used to it.

It's not too painful. I've only done it once, though, and I didn't really like it. And yeah it gets all red and stuff the first time you do it. I had like, bumps around that area for a few days.
