How to Pluck Your Eyebrows Painlessly

Pluck your eyebrows in the same direction the hair is growing.

Smooth, contoured eyebrows can enhance your look naturally. Properly groomed eyebrows can open up your face, attract attention to your eyes and give you an overall neat appearance. But plucking your eyebrows can hurt. Some people even avoid grooming their eyebrows because of the pain. Plucking your eyebrows without pain is possible though. If you want to pluck your eyebrows painlessly you will need to develop a little routine. Follow these steps for a painless pluck.

Instructions

1. Start by taking a hot shower. This is your best bet for plucking your eyebrows painlessly. The hot steam from the shower will open your pores.

2. Put some conditioner on your eyebrows. This will further soften the hair for a painless pluck. Apply just a drop and let it soak for a minute. Then rinse with warm water.

3. Add a little baby teething gel for a few seconds. This will numb the area for plucking painlessly. Wipe it away before you pluck.

4. Outline your eyebrows with a white pencil. Make the shape you would like your eyebrows to be in with a white pencil.

5. Pluck the hair, pulling in the direction the hair is growing. If you pull in the opposite direction it will irritate the skin.

6. Wipe away the white pencil line with a cold wet washcloth.

7. Use some ice or a washcloth with cool water to help with redness and skin irritation. Do not apply moisturizer or makeup for five to 10 minutes.
