Go to a salon, because most of them will know to press their finger over the spot (like a pressure point) to minimize the pain. I prefer waxing mine, because it will make the pain all at once and very sudden. After you get used to it, it won't be as bad. If you wax, get a clear waxing strip like Sally Hanson's, or else you might tear your whole eyebrow off. If you don't feel comfortable with that, tweeze, but get a good tweezer (I recommend Tweezerman). That way, you can grip the hair and it won't slip. Before you start, some people prefer to put an ice cube over the area to numb it, but I personally think that hurts more. Wash your face with warm water, and put a washcloth under hot water, and press it to your eyebrows for 5-10 minutes. This opens the pores, and makes the hair folicle come out more easily. Then, start plucking. It will still hurt a little, but not as much as normal (and if you use ice, it will close the pores, so I recommend a hot washcloth). Afterward, use aloe vera, and rub an icecube over it to close the pores so you don't break out. Unless you want to wax, this is the best way.

I went and had my eyebrows waxed, and just pull out all the new growth as it comes in. ( I will admit that this hurts a little, but it is all over with at once, rather than pain with each hair that you pull.) This is less painful and take only a few minutes after you take a shower. Besides, after taking a hot shower, your pores are more open and it seems to hurt less.

(1) Ice down the area first.
or
(2) get a prescription for EMLA from your doctor. It's a prescription for numbing the skin.

Either way, after a while, the tweezing won't hurt much at all because the roots will be very loose.

before you do your eybrows you should try to put a warm wet towel on them for a minute it opens up yout purs and makes it easier for the hairs to come out
also if you wax them it doesnt hurt as much and it only takes a few seconds you just have to make sure you get the right products for it and know how to do it right but its not very hard to learn or you can go to a salon and have them do it for you plus it last alot longer than plucking

I had a friend who would rub anbesol(for tooth aches) on her eyebrows to numb them. I've also heard of putting an ice-cube on them for a few minutes before hand to numb them.

i guess u can remove by laser surgery..its not that cheap though. But i have an idea how to make it less painful. Put a warm compress to relax skin and make hair leeks more open...One of my friends does that, cause it helps her :)))
So good luck :)

I've heard ice is good. I personally do some lotion and that helps a lot.
