How Do We Decide Where Your Brow Starts and Ends?

We line up a straight edge from the side of your nose. Held straight up, it marks where your brow should start. Angled across the center of your eye, it marks the high point of the arch. Angled past the outer corner of your eye, it marks where the tail should end. Those points are a guide, not a rule. We adjust for how your brows grow and for balance between the two sides.

Next, we trim any long hairs with small scissors so the shape reads clean. Most of the waxing happens under the brow and between the brows, in small sections. The top line usually needs only a few strays cleaned up. We look at both brows together before the calming finish, so one side doesn't end up heavier than the other.

What Should Your Brows Avoid for the First Day?

For 24 hours, skip makeup on the waxed skin, plus saunas, tanning and hot water on your face. The skin under the brow is thin and irritates easily right after a wax. Keep retinol and acids away from the area for a couple of days. Between visits, don't tweeze above the brow line. A stray up there is easier for us to work into the shape than a gap is to fill. If you're growing out thin brows, only pluck strays well below the shape. Brush your brows up each morning with a clean spoolie so you can see the shape we left.

Annmarie's Eye for Brow Detail

Annmarie is known for careful, clean wax lines and attention to small details. That matters on a brow, where a few hairs either way changes your whole expression. Waxing is her deepest specialty, so brows are routine work for her. If you'd like a different stylist, every name is on our team page. For recent work from our team, see our Instagram.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get my brows waxed?

Every 3 to 4 weeks for most. Faster growers can do every 2 weeks. Slower growers stretch to 5 to 6 weeks.

Wax vs threading vs tweezing?

All three work. Wax is fast and pulls multiple hairs at once. Threading is more precise on fine hair. Tweezing alone is slowest. We do wax + tweeze cleanup, which is the best of both.

Can you fix bad brows from somewhere else?

Usually yes, but it takes 2 to 3 visits as the hair grows back. We will tell you honestly what to expect.

I have sensitive skin. Is waxing okay?

Often yes. We use gentle wax and apply calming product after. If you use retinoids or accutane, tell us, since those affect wax safety.

Can I get other facial waxing in the same visit?

Yes. Lip, chin, sideburn, full facial wax all available as add-ons.
