might just have a tidy up few stray ones-think will go for the wax though-tweezers sound a bit hardcore. cheers guys. don't like the idea of threading. catherine xx

If you do you own put bonjela on your eyebrows first numbs them or just have them wax like I do no id doesn't hurt as I fall to sleep whilst she is doing them...

If you soak a cotton wool pad in warm water then hold it on the eyebroe for a few seconds before plucking, it opens the pores and doesn't hurt so much. Waxing!!! ouch!!!, only time i tried it i was red for a fornight after!!!!

Funnily enough I saw some hints in a magazine tonight, says if you find plucking painful take a paracetamol or ibuprofen 15 mins before plucking as well as using the Bonjela tip.

Gotcha Ghosty Give me those tweezers someone! Never plucked my eyebrows. They are like me ..... perfect in every way! Shame about the teeth! Daughters both do all that stuff. Going to let them practice on me next Saturday at college. Having the eyebrows and eyelashes tinted. Probably afterwards can get a part in a Xmas panto! Aileen xxx
