Get them professionally done at a salon the first time or every once in a while then follow up buy tweezing out the strays that grow. I prefer the string methods founded at most pro. beauty salons, it's much more sanitized and it's not wax so it won't pull off thin layers of skin if you are real sensitive.
That way it'll always look clean & nicely shaped.

Hiya hunny, don't be scared, I know it can be a bit daunting the first time, but believe me, eyebrows can make such a huge difference to a persons' appearance. They frame the eyes and your entire face, and are often one of the first things a person notices if they look bushy and unkempt!
I would definately reccomend having them done professionally the first time, as you can then just pluck away the hairs that start to grow back yourself, or get them done at the salon around once a month, or more if you can afford it!
If, however, you are like me and hate the idea of someone else pulling your hairs out and staring at every crevice on your face, then I would highly reccomend the following website. It has everything you will need, and also a video. I ordered one around a year ago, and I can't emphasize how great the products are!
If you're a bit strapped for cash, then try BROW-ZINGS by benefit, a little compact that comes with tweezers, powder, wax and brushes.
Good luck to you and your beautiful new brows! X

I would reccomend getting them threaded - you can get it done at a lot of salons- it involves coton thread being wound round each hair and then it being pulled out. I gives a mch better shape than plucking or waxing and is much less painful.
Anywhere there is a big Indian community usually has lots of places that does threading. Search for threading on google to find places. It should only cost ahout £15 max for both eyebrows. Some Indian places charge as little as £4 for both eybrows. Go to Southall if its near - thats the best place to find salons that do threading.
Definatly get a professional to shape your eyebrows though - however you get it done. Its just NOT worth doing it yourself if you are in any way unsure what your doing cos it could be disastourous!! Eyebrows take months to grow back, and sometimes never do!

Its very easy to buy a wax kit from the store and follow the directions. Just make sure you wax the bottom of your eyebrows only. Never wax above your eyebrows. If you just wax below it wont change the shape of your eyebrows. You might need to trim them up a bit too.

Ok...I hear you sister! Some things to keep in mind. If you pluck shape from the bottom DON'T TOUCH THE TOP!
But my best advice...use a tiny dot of hair gel. You can shape them whatever way you want! I know it sounds crazy but it works! You can get a sexy sleek line or a jaunty arch very mysterious! LOL
Good Luck hope this helps!

Ask your female friends if they know any good beauticains, cant spell he he. Or look in the back of your local paper in the advertisment section and listed there might be a beauticain who does house calls so your more relaxed in your own home enviroment and be able to explain better how you would like them done. mine are well bushy they usually wax pluck and trim them with sicsors!!!! vasolines good to keep stray ends in place!

Waxing and Threading methods are used for shaping eyebrows.
Threading is an old and inexpensive hair removal technique to shape eyebrows.

Anastacia is "the eyebrow diva". She does all the eyebrows of the stars. I've seen her do amazing brow make-overs on TV. Oprah said that every time Anastacia does her brows people think she had a facelift. You can buy her brow kits on Sephora.com. They come with everything you need to do your brows.

try going to a salon and the beautician there will shape them to suit your eyeshape and face shape alternatively if you dont want to go or have the money to go to a salon you can tweeze the stray hairs away or get a friend to come round and do it for you... or if you know any middle eastern people you could ask them to thread them for you or if you want to tame them pain free you could stick them down with a bit of clear mascara or a mascara to suit you natural eyebrow color!!
good luck!!
