Invest in your tools. As with almost every grooming product, you get what you pay for. Cheap tweezers won’t last and will give an inferior performance compared to higher quality brands like tweezerman – so it’s worth investing to get better results.

Don’t…

Use a razor, EVER. I can’t stress enough how you should never use a razor to remove eyebrow hair. It’s too drastic, there’s too much risk of you removing an entire chunk, and you’ll be left with stubbly regrowth that will appear even thicker than before.

Remove too much too soon. Take your time and remove one hair at a time. If you’re rushing, or plucking away without checking your progress, you’re much more likely to end up removing more than you bargained for. Once it’s gone – it’s gone, so regularly assess the situation to avoid embarrassing over-removal.

Cut in chunks If you’re using scissors to remove strays, make sure you do just that – remove strays. Using scissors to remove more than one or two strands isn’t advisable and can lead to patchwork brows.
