How to properly tweeze your eyebrows?

February 25, 09

I’ve been getting a lot of eyebrow questions lately – so I decided to go to www.tweezerman.com – home of my favourite Tweezerman Slant Tweezers – to share with you some easy tips and techniques from their website on how to shape and style your brows!  Take a Look:

Five Easy Steps To Accurate Tweezing:

  1. Brush hair in the direction of hair growth.
  2. Isolate the hair you are about to tweeze.
  3. Tweeze in the direction of hair growth.
  4. Pull one hair at a time.
  5. Pull gently and smoothly, making sure not to yank.

Not Sure How Much To Tweeze?

Be sure to step back from your mirror and check your brows periodically. Tweeze a few hairs from one brow and then the other so they remain symmetrical. Remember that it’s better to tweeze too little than too much.

Do’s and Don’ts

  • Do tweeze in the direction of hair growth.
  • Do open your pores with a hot washcloth to make tweezing easier.
  • Do use a make-up concealer to draw your desired brow shape, then tweeze the hairs that fall below the line.
  • Don’t use creams or moisturizers that can cause the tweezer to slip.
  • Don’t tweeze nose hairs or hairs growing out of moles.

Care Tips for your Tweezers:

  • Clean Tweezers after each use.
  • Disinfect tips of tweezers in alcohol.
  • Protect the tips of tweezers with cap and keep in storage box or tube.
  • Spring tension can be increased by gently pulling the two halves of the tweezer apart. Once you have increased the spring tension, you cannot decrease it.
  • Never drop tweezers. Dropping will dull the tip and throw your tweezers out of alignment.
