"So you want to pluck your own eyebrows and you're not sure how to do this. My name is Sylvia Russell and today I'm going to show you how you can pluck your eyebrows. Now first thing is first, you must have a mirror handy. It can be a small, compact mirror or a large mirror. Use whatever is easiest for you to get. Make sure to have an eyebrow brush. An eyebrow brush is very vital to brushing the hairs away so that you can see the unwanted hair that you want to pluck. Having your tweezers, a comb and even some scissors handy, making sure you have all of your utensils to get the eyebrow shape that you want. A really good thing to do is to get a wet, warm wash cloth, place it on the eyebrow to help open up the pores so that it's a little bit easier and not so painful to the eye. Now, go ahead and brush your eyebrow up and away so that you can see the unwanted hairs that are going to be removed. Once you do this, you're well on your way to begin plucking. So you get your eyebrow plucker, your tweezers, and you slowly pull away in the direction that the hair grows, making sure to pull from the base of the eyebrow, or the eye, yeah the eyebrow hair, and quickly pulling the hair out. So once you do that, you begin to design the shape of your choice. And you will begin to start seeing a really nice eyebrow. Now I know this is something that you can do at home. It's very easy. Practice makes perfect. Look in some magazines and talk to friends about what you think might look good on you. Never over tweeze your eyebrows. The more you tweeze, the slower the hair will grow back. Hopefully, eventually it won't grow back at all. Remember, tweezing can be easily done at home, you have the tools to do it.
