I haven't plucked in years. I prefer threading over waxing, especially now since I'm using Acne topicals (I learned the hard way, when I waxed earlier this year, and part of my skin "tore" off).
But... my last threading experience was very horrible. Went to someone new, and she changed my whole shape, and really over thread! I was left with just a line of hair... when I've been trying to grow them out and really want fuller brows. =\ So I'm still growing my brows out from that experience, and when I'm done growing them out a few more monts -- I am really debating if I should just go back to plucking and shaping them myself.
Whenever they get too out of control I go and get them waxed. But most of the time I just pluck them to keep them under control. In most of my pictures I hadn't had my eyebrows plucked or waxed or anything, so they're kind of hideous... >.<
Threading threading threading. It's natural, less painful than waxing and tweezing, quick, and lasts. Plus, you get a perfect hairline that still looks natural! Just got mine touched up yesterday, and see, perfect hairline
