Getting rid of eyebrow hair is a little tougher than getting rid of hair elsewhere on the body. The hair can't be shaved away since a shaver will also remove the good hairs. However, there are several options available to the person who needs to remove that unwanted hair.
Tweezing is the cheapest and easiest hair removal method. It will not help the person shape the eyebrows, and it may be hard to pick out the unwanted hair from the good hair. It also doesn't last long as tweezing eliminates the hair for about two weeks. Use a high quality tweezer with an angled tip that is comfortable to hold.

Eyebrow threading involves twisting a cotton thread into a double strand that will pick up a single hair or a group of them. An expert can do this will little pain to the patient, but the hairs will grow back in three to four weeks.

Waxing can be done at home with a waxing kit. The wax is applied in the direction of the hair growth. A strip of cloth or paper is pressed on the wax. It is removed in the opposite of the hair growth direction. This can cause some pain and skin irritation. However, the inexpensive treatment allows the user to shape the brows as she wants. The hair will grow back in four to six weeks.

Eyebrow laser hair removal may not be the cheapest technique but is the longest lasting. A laser hair removal specialist should be able to remove the hairs in several sessions four to eight weeks apart. It is common to have maintenance appointments bi-yearly or yearly.
5
Electrolysis can remove the hairs permanently. The procedure is so fine that it can target single hairs. However, electrolysis is expensive.
