i'd say about 4 for the ones closest to the bridge of the nose and 7-8 for the ones on the actual brow area, softer skin!!

such a big baby; sorry, just kidding!! before you tweeze (you pluck chickens, you tweeze brows!!) place a very cold wrung out washcloth over your brows...then use an old toothbrush or brow brush and brush brows as straight upwards as you can...then tweeze the longest hairs first; now heres the BIG secret!!...if you gently pull in the opposite direction of the way you are tweezing, it is virtually painless;you are, in effect, 'sliding' the hair out of the follicle...so if you pull downward, GENTLY, then tweeze upwards; & you pull upwards GENTLY to tweeze downwards; sounds weird, but it works. I am a former makeup artist and was taught this by a lady from France many years ago..........you can also apply a little ORaJel, like they use for baby's gums when are teething, but Id say thats a bit much, but, whatever helps! and one more thing;check your brow line once a week; if you see something that has to come out, do it..dont wait weeks and weeks and for God's sake DO NOT OVERTWEEZE! I assume you are a younger lady but no matter what age, skinny brows AGE YOU...I see so many lovely young women with overtweezed brows I could just yell at them!! remember PORPORTION IS EVERTHING on the face, as well as the clothes you wear!! sorry I rambled!! but do give it a try!!!!!!!!!!!11

Try using a cold wash rag to soften up the skin before plucking it hurts because your yanking hair out of raw and dry skin. Also try to pluck faster in a quick and uniform shape the quicker you get done the less pain.

For me, it's a 2 because I'm used to it and don't really feel it. If someone else does it it's a 5 because I don't know where the next pluck will be. But pain for beauty. It's a trade off and worth it.

That depends on how often you pluck your eyebrows, whether your body is going through hormonal changes, whether you have a high tolerance for pain, how you pluck your eyebrows, etc.
Sometimes I hardly feel it and have to check to make sure the hair came out. Other times I have to pause because my eyes are watering so badly.

I get mine done every two weeks and i think waxing is better as it keeps your eyebrows neat longer and its just one short feeling of pain. But plucking dosen't hurt at all as long as you have put a hot water or wax over the eyebrow first.

personally I hate to pluck. So I have them waxed by my hairstylist. It always comes out perfect and the pain is very short.
Plucking HURTS me...But some women don't have a problem with it.

the closer you get to the outside area, the more it hurts. 5-6 for the most part, 8-9 for the outer.
