The first step to have great brows is to follow their natural shape. Once you’re sure of it, draw an outline with a white pencil just before tweaking or threading. Avoid shaping your eyebrows such that they slant upwards, as it will give you an angry look.



2. Minimise pain:

Whether you are plucking them yourself or going to a stylist, you can minimise the pain by applying ice on the brow area both before and after plucking, or getting it done after a shower, when the pores are open. Also, remember to soften the hair by applying a hair conditioner.



3. Soothe it:

Apply a gel or cream to soothe the skin around your eyebrows if inflamed.



4. Oil to the rescue:

In case of less hair growth, massage coconut oil on the brows ever night.
