Talk to me about eyebrows

Hiya, I go to salon once a month to have my eyebrows waxed, but nothing unusual.

A few salons near me have started this luxury eyebrow shaping, one calls it "HD Brows" another calls it "celebrity brows". Not sure exactly how it works but it uses several methods including waxing, tweezing, threading to give you the perfect eyebrows (apparantly). Might be worth looking out for, but only if your prepared to go expensive, maybe just for wedding? x

Hi PurplePixie,

i have HD Brows done every month. beenhaving it done now for the last 4 months so that by the time the weeding comes around (July) they will be in good shape. The HD brows treatments includes waxing, tweezering and thredding as well as tiniting and use of the HD make up pallet which is a power that matches or is darker than your eyebrow colour that lasts for about 24 hours (I bought a palet myself so i can top mine up)

They aren't severe as the ' Scouse Brow' on Desperate Scousewives but a nice shape and colour. It's costly though and cost me £20 per month. TBH as i am not very ' hairy' and very fair i will probably stop having them done after the wedding.

Give it a google and see what you think

Hiya I'm also a HD brow girl. My next door neighbour is one of the trainers and works for the lady who started it...nilam patel.

Basically they tint them first to create the shape, they then wax, thread and tweezers the the shape.

I LOVE mine and soooooo many people ask where I get them done. It honestly is worth it!!

Its waxing for me too, don't think I could bare having them threaded,just the thought makes me cringe ?

Mine are temporarily tattooed! It uses a vegetable pigment that breaks down over 2-5 years depending on your age. I have had mine done twice now and I love them!

I still have mine threaded to keep the stragglers away, but the arch and shape and fullness from the tattoo is soooooo amazing.

Wow - I've never heard of this before reading on here, so have contacted the person local to me. Hoping to go and give it a whirl!

Been having mine threaded for years - yes it hurts but no more so though anything else and for some reason makes me sneeze and am left with big red blotches after but as long as I get them done in the evening and they have overnight to recover they always look good.

If you're in London, Browhaus is the place to go! They do threading and they're very famous and well reviewed

IM having HD brows done before the wedding..my hairdressing salon have just started doing them! They look amazing!

I had mine tattoo'd last year and LOVE them - they are just perfect (to me) all the time she drew them first so we got the exact shape i wanted. I did have HD brows before which were good but they gave me a dreadful itchy rash like couldnt sleep it was that bad and you have to keep having them done. All my mates thought I was weird going to get them done but all agree they are really good and you'd never know!

Tricks has posted about this on OT today about HD brows

There's a good saying which is very true: 'eyebrows should be sisters, not twins'.

That's what the lady who did my eyebrows says!

She did the usual lining up with other facial features, and then we tweaked each one individually. One of mine is actually quite a bit higher than the other - who knew!? But they are now both fab shapes with all the individual hairs added to where mine were lacking. She tattoos many ladies who have had chemo and lost their eyebrows completely (my mum, how I met said lady), and even hers looked great. To create eyebrows where someone is bald, with a natural 'hair' effect is quite a talent. Can you tell I'm chuffed with mine! I LOVE having perfect brows with a clean face.

Thanks everyone. I've had a google of the HD brow thing and found something similar at a local beauty/spa place.
