Plucking my eyebrows is one of my least favorite beauty rituals to do. I have to or either let someone else do it. Usually one side needs more attention than the other brow, which I find a little odd. It’s always the side that needs to be plucked more that hurts worse.
I like to numb the eyebrow before beginning to pluck. I take a little rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and rub over the eyebrow to make plucking hurt less. When the tingling sensation wears off, I reapply some more. It helps to make plucking eyebrows bearable.

I am addicted to plucking and have been for years.
As long as you don’t overdo it, it is all good. After the first few weeks of plucking, it doesn’t really hurt at all anymore. I heard numbing it with ice is helpful too though if you are sensitive to that.
