I regret nothing. Except how thin my eyebrows were in high school.  And college.  And my 20s.

I’ve basically been growing my eyebrows back in, in phases, since 2013.  It’s been a long process, but they were over plucked for decades, so it takes time.  If you’ve been considering growing your brows back in, I can’t think of a better time to start the process.      Because while it takes about four months to see full results, the first 3-4 weeks are the hardest.

Using a serum, like Rogaine or Grandelash will help.  Taking a prenatal vitamin will also help.

Not looking to grow them back in?  I don’t wax.  I was burned with hot sugaring solution in my teens.  I don’t use wax on my face now.

Instead, I use a good pair of tweezers and an electric razor made for small jobs.  But getting good brows is more about the shape — where they start, arch, and end.  This chart is a good guide.

As for removal, I start with this pencil-shaped Flawless Touch razor. It’s perfect for brows.  I use it for regular trims in between my brows and underneath.  This keeps things clean, while preventing me from overdoing it.

Then, I tweeze to maintain the shape.  These tips are a good guide for the best way to tweeze, and what not to do.  These Blink Bar  Brow Tweezers are the best ones I’ve ever used.

If you prefer to use wax, this microwaveable kit from Sally Hansen is a good place to start.
