Do you guys have any tips for tweezing eyebrows? Like making it easier/less painful. I'm not allowed to get my eyebrows waxed and they're SO bushy. :/

It sounds stupid but if you close your eye right before you pluck the hair it doesn't hurt as much, might just be me tho haha!

Before you pluck, put ice and a teenie bit of water into a zippie and hold it to your eye for 30s to 1m, it will numb your nerves so you will feel less pain! I personally like to leave it on for 2m before I pluck! ^  ^

I would recommend that you thread your eyebrows instead of tweezing as it takes much longer and pulling one hair at a time is pretty time consuming. Threading is a really good way of getting the shape you want and as far as the pain- you get used to it. :)
Here are my eyebrows- I thread them.

I do my eyebrows after I shower, so the pores are open! Trust me it hurts a lot less :)

Try blasting music so your mind has something else to focus on. Also bear in mind that it gets easier as time goes by!

After a warm shower, and believe it or not Vaseline helps...but the more you do it the more youll get use to it...personally I don't like threading because it just breaks your hair not remove it...and it makes me breakout...but you never know until you try..good luck hun :)
