Eyebrow Waxing vs. Eyebrow Tweezing?

Question

Which hurts more? Eyebrow Waxing or Eyebrow Tweezing?

Answer 1

If you've never done either, you can get a wax for $10-$15 and get a good shape going. Then upkeep them with good tweezers (Tweezerman $20 but worth it).

To wax, you have to wait until the hair grows out long enough for the wax to grip it. I can never wait, I'm constantly plucking.

As far as pain... personal opinion..

Answer 2

Eyebrow tweezing is not painful until you get down towards the lid rather than the brow.
Upper lip tweezing is painful!
Friends say they prefer waxing because it is all done at once.

Answer 3

for me, waxing hurts more because it swells up my skin around my brows and it hurts for a few hours after waxing. with tweezing, i pull in the direction the hair's growing and it doesn't hurt at all. also with waxing, i got a rash from the wax that was used.

Answer 4

tweezing hurts more because you have to pull every single little hair out. one at a time

with waxing, you get them all off at once.
for like not even 5 seconds of pain

Answer 5

tweezing does. Its done within a second all at once with waxing. With tweezing you do it one by aching one

Answer 6

i've never had them waxed--but tweezing doesn't hurt me at all. in fact, i quite enjoy it. therapeutic, i guess. feeling of accomplishment, maybe. only a few hurt a bit the first time--but they just come out quite easily. it's a lot cheaper too!

Answer 7

Waxing hurts more because it is also taking the skin and haur folicle off. I actually prefer threading, so it might be something you're interested in.

Answer 8

it depends.
waxing is more like quick pain and then it goes away and tweezing is painful with every hair.

Answer 9

tweezing beacaus it is little tiny pricks and you have to do a tone of em. with waxing you get it done in one shot
