Which hurts more: waxing or plucking your eyebrows?

Question

I really need to know!!

Answer 1

Try both and decide for yourself. Individuals react differently to waxing or plucking. You have to find out what works for your body. You cannot judge by other people's experiences.

Answer 2

It really depends. Waxing hurts the first couple of times, but after that, it's no big deal (although you may be a bit red and puffy afterward). Waxing is nice because someone else does it, and you get the pain all over in a matter of seconds. However, if you pluck, sometimes you have to do it more frequently. But after a while, plucking really doesn't hurt unless you get a stray hair.

Either way, I wouldn't be worried about the pain...like I said, it's all over in a matter of seconds anyway. You'll be fine :)

Answer 3

I would say if you want it all done at once and not have to deal with the continuous pain I would go with Wax but the wax would hurt more then plucking

Answer 4

Plucking hurts more than waxing (when done properly) because it takes longer. Waxing is quick. However, a wax done by someone who doesn't know what they're doing could end in burns, bruises, and wax stuck to your skin for days. Always ask around for the name of a good waxer.

Answer 5

Waxing. You get used to plucking, but waxing hurts every time. The pain isn't as bad if you do it right when you get out of a hot shower.

Answer 6

Waxing hurts less because the pain doesn't last long, plucking is prolonged agony if you have sensitive eyes. Be sure to go to someone who comes recommended though because i went to someone once and she took skin off along with the hairs from going over the same area again and again.

Answer 7

for me, plucking hurts more, although you get used to it. the first time i had my eyebrows plucked by someone in a salon, and it was pretty painful...my eyed started watering uncontrolably. wax hurts but as people say its over so fast it doesnt matter. id say if youre a bit of a baby get your eyebrows waxed to shape them and then to maintain them neat and tidy just pluck them yourself every now and then

Answer 8

They both hurt a bit. But, plucking takes longer, so the hurt lasts longer. Waxing, is one or two hurts and its over.

I prefer waxing. I think waxing does a better job (especially, if you need reading glasses), and is less time consuming.

Answer 9

well i've done both. i hated plucking cause i had to pull them out one at a time and it was a little rush of pain with each one. i just recently did waxing for the first time and i was scared cause i thought it would hurt but it didnt. the wax isnt hot enough to hurt yourself, its just the right temp and then when it gets pulled off it goes so fast you dont even feel it. it might actually itch a little bit, lol.

Answer 10

plucking because u have to pluck one at a time and waxing is all at once
