13 is fine - maybe 14-15 is better. I suggest you get them done by a PROFESSIONAL first sweetie. Do NOT overpluck because A. it just looks ugly
B. it makes you look old (not in a good way)
C. Looks trashy
D. See A.
I would try going to Benefit's own Brow Bar. You can find it at any Macys - give them a call! Or go to a salon and ask for a cleanup. They may say do you want them shaped and that's fine just make sure they don't take off too much. Sometimes eyebrows don't grow back, and THAT sucks. Good luck sweetie I wish you all the best!

Best advice I can give is that it's better to under-pluck then over-pluck. Go slow and step back from the mirror to see your full face every few hairs.

I've read before that an easy way to get a good eyebrow is to take a white or light/bright coloured pencil the draw the curve that you want and pluck anything that falls outside of that area.

There is no set age - just when you think they're getting a little bit messy. It will not hurt you if you will 13, and it will work. I know 11 year olds who have bushy eyebrows and get the plucked. Tips for getting them plucked: to put it short and simply, it hurts. However, there are ways to make it hurt less - like plucking after you take a shower. Hair comes out easier when it is wet. Also, take tylenol or motrin beforehand to beat the pain. Good luck!

any age will do. never pluck hairs from the top of the eyebrow, as this is the shape you follow. never pluck from the outside end as this is the length. start in the middle above your eyelid do one hair at a time taking all the stragglers out. as you work upwards you start getting a shape, do a little on each brow. Then work from the middle to the outside making the outside end slightly slimmer. If your brows meet in the middle do some serious plucking, then depending on your eye shape pluck from the middle inwards towards your nose leaving this bit slightly thicker. good luck

It's best not to pluck your eyebrows at all if possible, electrolysis is better, but I don't think you'd be allowed to do that at 13. Don't worry if you think your eyebrows join in the middle, I bet no-one else will notice, and apparently, it's a sign that you're lucky! :)

(If you MUST pluck your eyebrows, remember not to pluck the ones at the top, just the ones at the ends and underneath.)

Definitely you should if they are really untamed or if you have a unibrow. I would suggest getting them professionally waxed, though, especially if you have never plucked before. You don't want to overdue it, or accidently pluck a slash in your brow. Ew.

I am a fashion trend researched, and a former fashion designer and make-up artist. And just so everyone knows, pencil-thin brows are NOT in this year. Go for a more of a Mary-Kate Olson brow.

I know I am fabulous!

i think 12 or 13 is a pretty good age to get them in shape....dont go and wax them or pluck them so that they are really really skinny just pluck the extra little hairs on the sides ...i would suggest getting them waxed proffesionally the first time os that they have agood form which you can take care of

13, I say is a little young to be plucking your eyebrows.

If your mom is okay with it, knock yourself out, BUT... be careful. Don't over tweeze. Girls look retarded with one line eyebrows. It looks worse when they're drawn on like sails of a boat...you know, those huge arches.

Why do you want to pluck at such a young age anyway. TRUST ME, know one will really notice unless you want them too.

I say, wait til you're older.

Pluck away, it won't affect you. Just pluck in the direction the hair is growing. If you cut them with scissors, then they'll grow back all funky and wild.
