Really need to pluck my eyebrows but I have a low pain tolerance. So if really hurts and my eyes water. Any tips off it to be a little less painful?

Maybe put an ice cube to your eyebrow before to numb it a little bit. For me it doesn't really hurt it does however make my eyes water.. But numbing it out should help!

Do it after you get out of the shower it's so much better. Also pluck in the direction of the hair.

Pluck closer to the skin rather than the tip of the hair.

Put something very minty on it first like lotions with cooling menthols to numb it out a bit.
