Eye Brow Waxing

[Guest]

I need to get my eye brows waxed. Can I expect alot of bleeding?

:biggrin2:..Never had that done, but don't see why there would be any bleeding...unless there is something about "eye browwaxing" that I don't know about.

Have had to be stitched up a time or two.....without any bleeding issues:redface2:

Dick, just what are you waxing anyway?
TopMommy, there shouldn't be any problem especially since the brow area is very small, it's not like you are
pulling strips off of Dick's back or anything like that. HA HA

I have my brows (and occasionally other bits...) waxed regularly and have never had any bleeding except a tiny bit from a couple of dots once when it was done by a very junior beautician. Stick with a good salon and you'll be fine

If your INR is so high that you have a problem with waxed eyebrow areas bleeding -- then you've got more serious INR problems to take care of RIGHT AWAY.

Have you tried eyebrow threading? There are salons popping up in malls and spas that do the threading. I have had it done twice now, $20, and prefer it over waxing.

I just had a large tattoo done which took over two hours to complete and didn't bleed too much with and INR of 2.3 the day I sat for it. I wouldn't think a waxing would be worse than that.

I am not on warafin but don't feel like ever putting myself in painful situations if unnecessary. I went to walgreens and bought a $10 eyebrow trimmer, it's like a tiny little electric razor and I may never wax or pluck again.

I got my eyebrows waxes today and no blood. Now I look younger.

did your tattoo blurr? I heard they do.

I have had mine waxed many times, with no problems at all. Only one time, a gal, whose experience I didn't question, gave me a bruise that turned ugly, black and blue! I didn't notice it at first, and as I walked around, my husband said, what's that on your eyelid? Sure enough, it was a bruise from the waxing. I don't know to this day what she did to create such a bruise during a eyebrow wax. But, I only go to one gal that I trust to do a great job, now.

Never heard of this before now. Looked it up - very interesting. How does it compare in discomfort to waxing or plucking?

I admit, the first time I had it done my eyes teared towards the end, like when you pluck one near sensitive nerves and it stimulates tears. They wrap the thread around a bunch at a time, sounds like ripping paper. It's faster than plucking actually and looks a lot better, they can thin out bushy brows too.

Waxing is quicker but I got a red rash above and below my brows that lasted for a bit, didn't see much a difference in discomfort over the threading.
