Getting my eyebrows waxed for the very first time...?

does it hurt like a lot???





because when i watch movies or stuff on t.v. it looks like people are in a lot of pain


i'm refuse to chickening out, because i REALLY want to get them waxed, i'm 14 by the way, so i don't think i'm too young.


i'm so scared they are going to look bad.


does anyone have tips to stay calm when i'm about to get it done?Getting my eyebrows waxed for the very first time...?
They'll look great. Before she pulls the wax strip, hold the skin taut with your hand and it won't hurt as much. But it happens so quickly, it's really not that painful. 2DGetting my eyebrows waxed for the very first time...?
I think I was your age when I first got mine done. First of all, don't have too much taken off - let the person know that it's your first time having it done and ask them to explain the process to you. Maybe tell them that you want to just take a little off the brow and in-between. I would avoid having them wax the top of your brows - tweeze instead. You can always have them take-off more next time.





Be sure to go to a salon that has an aesthetician (person that does facials) to do this - don't go to your local nail salon and have a random person wax your brows.





It does hurt a bit, but it goes away fast. Everyone is different, but to me, it feels like pulling a band-aid off (when it's stuck on pretty good). If you're light skinned, you might be a little pink afterwards, but don't worry, that fades. After they wax they usually use tweezers to get any stray hairs missed.





Good luck!
Make sure you bring Baby Powder with you and cotton balls. I have really sensitive skin, and the first time I got my brows waxed my skin was irritated for hours. So I talked to my dermatologist and she said to have them put baby powder on your skin BEFORE they put the wax on. It doesn't effect the amount of hair taken off, but it makes it hurt a whole lot less. Another thing to do is take a cold damp cloth and apply it to your brows AFTER they have been waxed. This helps keep the swelling down if there is any. Also BEFORE think that it wont hurt. Because it really doesn't ad having the right mindset will help a lot. I was 12 when I first got my eyebrows waxed and have been doing it for years. Don't forget to breath.
the more you do it, the less it hurts. i think plucking hurts more right after they've been waxed lol. just tell the lady who does it not to take too much off at first and if you want more taken off, then you can tell her, that way it won't look bad. umm and just breathe in and out and maybe have the lady talk to you. i'm sure she will understand if it's your first time. and ummm don't get a brazilian bikini if by the 10th time eyebrow waxing still hurts a lot for you lol
Okay it hurts at first but its really not unbearable. Right after they pull the strip they usually will pat the area immediatly and that makes the slight sting go away. also, most places will rub aloe or baby oil on when they are done so it will heal.





good luck, and make sure you tell them you want it to look ';natural'; sometimes if you dont, u wind up with too thin eyebrows. good luck!
what are ya'll talking about?


it doesn't hurt at all, it takes 2 seconds anyways. And you look great afterwards. Don't even worry about it :)





In movies they scream because they are getting their private area waxed, or they're boys getting their brows, and as we know .. they are wussies!
it doesnt hurts. Its just like a sting! it might make your eyes water a little but i promise it doesnt hurt. They wont look bad.. i get mine done at a nail place and the chinese ladies always know what the're doing. They never make them look bad.
