Eyebrow Waxing and Shaping - What's the Difference?

Eyebrow waxing and shaping works best when done by a skilled professional, especially for those who have had bad experiences before or have special requests when it comes to the preferred shape.

This process involves the use of hot wax, a brow comb and scissors if needing a trim.

Before the therapist begins they will have a detailed look at the brow and ask you if you have any preferences to how it is shaped. Hot wax is then applied to the hair needing to be removed; slight pressure is placed on the wax so that it is firmly attached to all the finer hairs as well, then in one quick movement the wax is removed, leaving the area hair free.

Sometimes wax will need to be applied again to the same area if not all hairs came out successfully, sometimes this happens if the skin has had a lot of makeup present, or skin is quite oily, the area should not be waxed more than twice.

After the waxing is complete, it is time to tweeze the area to really define the shape, and then trimming to get rid of any long rogue hairs. As soon as the procedure is done, a post waxing oil and lotion will be used to calm the area and help keep it clean.
To really sharpen the look of eyebrow shaping, it is recommended you ask the therapist to tint the brows just before the wax procedure, as this will enhance and freshen the color of your natural brow and fill in any gaps.

Eyebrow Waxing

Eyebrow Shaping via Threading

Eyebrow shaping is an old depilation method that started in India. This technique gives the most excellent eyebrow shape and is utilized to provide your brows with clean lines. It involves coiling pure cotton threads to pull the hair in a clean line and is likewise an easier and faster means to remove the hair.

Eyebrow Shaping vs. Waxing

Sensitive skin: Chemicals found in waxes may annoy the skin around your eyes, causing them to have rashes or allergic reaction and can develop pigmentation and redness. Additionally, waxing can lead to the emergence of unpleasant wrinkles between your eyebrows, as well as skin loosening.

Soreness: It is a fact that both procedures are rather sore, but waxing is undeniably the most painful, because the majority of waxes utilized are warm, and it can sometimes lead to scorching or burning of the skin. One more reason is the molten wax that surrounds your eyes, as it may pose a problem later on.

Skin contact: Eyebrow shaping has minimal or no contact with the skin; therefore, your skin will not be irritated for a couple of minutes. On the other hand, eyebrow waxing plucks the skin when hair is taken out, and if your skin is really sensitive, it can be irritated and make it go red or pink in color.
