"Hi! I'm Amelia and on behalf of Expert Village we'll be talking about the perfect eyebrow. Tweezing is probably the most common way that most women groom their eyebrows. You always want to make sure that you use a slant tip tweezers. You want that edge to be fairly sharp. Not sharp that you're going to cut yourself. Once it starts to get dull, those hairs are hard to grab. You've already marked off your eyebrows where they're supposed to be, so we're just going to remove a few hairs right in the center here. You always want to hold your tweezers at an angle. Just grab the little fine hairs. You want to try and go in the direction that the hair grows. Another thing you want to do is really pull that skin taunt and then it won't be quite so uncomfortable. The best time to tweeze your eyebrows is right after a shower, because the skin is soft and follicle is soft, and it comes out much easier. Tweezing is great way to maintain your professional grooming at home. I recommend if you were to get it done, let's say last week, you would want to keep it up at home every time you get out of the shower. Any time you see a little stray hair, you would just go in and pull that stray hair out. That would prolong the time that you would need in between getting your eyebrows done. Just make sure that your tweezers are nice and sharp and that they're a slant tip, and that you can really grasp them in your hand. Also, make sure that when you pull that hair out, you pull out fairly quickly and in the direction that it grows. With those tips, you should have no problem tweezing your eyebrows."
