There are little shavers you could use for eyebrows

Ask for her input of course, but consider having just the middle done with sugaring. Hurts less than waxing and threading.

Shes not too young for waxing but you can also go to Walmart get the little personal grooming pens for women and those things are amazing

Waxing is way better. Even under arms. Don’t be embarrassed. Take her 2a good beauty therapist as waxing stumps thick hair.

I read an article just the other day about models rocking the unibrow.

I’d say wax. Let her know it does hurt a bit but after a few times she’ll get use to it and it lasts the longest

I tweeze my eye brows .Im a licensed Cosmetologist I used wax once and I broke out really bad. You get use to the tweezing just keep up with it

If you can’t talk to your daughter about her unibrow how will you ever talk to her about anything important?

I use the shaver and do the center where it should look like 2 eyebrows to my 10 year old. I feel she is too young for waxing(just my opinion)

Eyebrow shavers are a thing and super easy :slight_smile:

My oldest came home when she was 8 crying about being made fun of for her eyebrows. I showed her photos of me at that age and told her… these were mine, and that I wax. I told her if she wanted to I would take her. She wanted to. She will be 14 in June, and she gets her eyebrows waxed about once a month. She hates tweezing, and says the waxing is so much quicker.

Glee wax strips just in the middle! Or a little eyebrow razor (I prefer the electric ones and Phillips makes a pink one if she’s into that)

Waxing would be quick and less streeful

You and her have a girls day and get them waxed

There are facial grooming razors, other than your typical razors used for pits and legs. They’re not as big, and not as painful as tweezers.

I let my daughter wax her eyebrows on her 13th birthday, she asked and I asked for sensitivite wax, I told her it would hurt a bit. She wanted to try it and she loved how they came out. Imo waxing is easier than tweezing as it only hurts for a second. Girls go through alot of change in middle.school and it’s a very hard time as far as bullying. I’d just ask her if she wants a girls day, wax brows and get your nails or toes done. She’ll be alright.

Have a girl day, get waxed legs and brows a massage pedi and mani, maybe even a new hair style

Hi hello i went through the same thing and still do.
I honestly just shave it. People say shaving makes it worse, but mine comes in exactly the same still and i’ve been shaving it for nine years. but i would also recommend those little eyebrow blades

I highly recommend threading because it gives a WAY better shape but next option is wax. You can get little strips to do at home just to get rid of the middle section.
DONT use razor or shave - that’s not beneficial for eyebrow hair and will grow back thicker and more frequently

So , my 12 yr old had the same issue, I let her try to nair it… I have her options to help, And we talked somewhere where she felt no one was around… finally a couple weeks ago, she wanted to get them waxed. So I went with her and I got mine shaped at the same time so she wouldn’t feel like she was doing it alone… It hurt but I told her if you keep it up you wouldn’t hurt anymore

My daughter is 12 and has a unibrow. We literally just talked about it tonight and she asked how to get rid of it, I said tweezers but it hurts. She asked what else works and I told her waxing it. I think now is a good time to start waxing it

Wax it before she gets teased

Take her to have them threaded. Honestly if it’s that bad this soon then she isn’t to younge for waxing either.

Just wax her eyebrows , relax

She’s not too young for waxing.

I bought this for my daughter who is 11 and it does a good job till she is ready for waxing.

Whoever laugh reacted this post… is just rude, why laugh at the situation? This is an 11 year old we’re talking about. Not very considerate.

I suggest taking her to get them waxxed, you’d be doing her a kindness, as much as you may think she’s too young, these things happen for all of us at different ages, I think if you go together, it will help her feel more at ease. :smiling_face: she will get use to it. I think it’ll be better than using the razor, as the razor maybe more manageable at home but we all know shaving just causes hair to comeback quicker/thicker.

I used facial hair until I was like 13, and then waxed!

My 6 year old has a wicked one and i use this on her because i don’t want her being picked on, doesn’t hurt she actually loves it!

Unfortunately my oldest daughter got her feelings hurt by her grandma who said something hurtful to her so we started waxing. My youngest daughter just started waxing at 11 1/2 so no comments would come from Grandma. I asked the esthetician about her being too young and she said no. My youngest is a pretty girlie girl though so she likes nails, makeup, etc

I would do wax or thread if it’s getting to her.

I have a unibrow! Obviously it doesn’t show because im much older now. I’d recommend getting laser hair removal (I go to a very affordable place in Austin) to start making it easier for her to pluck the heavy places.

I started getting g mine waxed at 9

Wax it for sure. Maybe offer to do make over day and get eyebrows in the package

Ask her how she feels about it and if SHE wants to look into ways to fix it. Ask her what she is comfortable with. You dont have to have a sit down conversation that seems serious. Make it a casual thing.

I would take her to a salon to get her eyebrows done and maybe throw a new hair cut or style in. Make it a mother daughter day so she don’t think about it to much.

It wax and she’s 11. Not worth her feeling insecure over hair. Wax it. You can love the body you have and still not want a unibrow….

I am a cosmetologist, I have waxed my daughter and granddaughter for years. I use hard wax so apply was and peel… have been considering permanent hair removal for the unibrow for my daughter.

Eyebrow razors are the best! My daughter is 11 and she has bushy eyebrows and noticeable nose hairs.

Facial razor. Works great. I use it on my 11 year old son about every 3 weeks because he had a thick unibrow lol

Treat her to a day at a salon and let the beautician decide whether to use wax or tweeze - may hurt a little - but she will be thrilled at the results.

Just wax it! No harm in waxing!

I showed my daughter at 8 Years old and now 10 how to use the tweezers. And sanitize them. And now also shaves her armpits . She’s a Pro.

Waxing or threading. She is not too young for it at all

That’s so sweet of you. I would make inappropriate jokes about it and always make fun of her for it however I would talk with her about the options of removing it and see what option she thinks would be best. Than continue to call her uni.

Take her to a salon to get her eyebrows done and let her get her hair done!

Thread them !!! Ask her first though if she would like to get them done

There’s no such thing as “to young”

People post things like
Is my daughter too young to use tampons?
Is my daughter too young to shave her legs?
Is my daughter too young to wear bras?

There is no such thing as too young. Its just you not being ready to accept that she is growing up and/or worried about the opinion of society.

If your daughter has body hair she wants to get rid of then she is old enough to get rid of it.

If your daughter is having periods and wants to go swimming, or she feels dirty with a pad on or uncomfortable wearing one then she is old enough to use a tampon.

If your daughter has developing breasts she needs a bra.

Just put the hair removal options out there and give her the pros and cons of them and let her decide what she wants to do about it. Her body, her choice.

Go for a girls day out, and lunch

I’d just take her to the hairdressers. I probably would have done it at 6.

No don’t wax it destroys her skin and will make the eyebrows thin. Honestly she is 11 years old nothing wrong with a unibrow! I had one and now I’m glad I didn’t over do waxing because I have nice eyebrows! Let her love her body! She doesn’t need to look like everyone else when she gets older let her decide.

Waxing is definitely the best and easiest way and I don’t think she’s too young for that. Otherwise get her to lay with her head on a pillow on your lap and tweeze away. Maybe get a numbing spray or cream? I have never tried the threading that has popped up everywhere but that seems pretty cool and painless.

Ask her if it bothers her, explain her options and ask her what she wants to do, or if she wants to leave it… id say though maybe try letting her watch you get yours done so she can see and won’t be scared if she wants hers done

Give her the conversation with options and let her choose what to do with her body and that may empower her to not take it as you telling her how and that it’s not a positive thing about her. Her making the decision may make it so it’s her positive choice . You sound like an amazing mom .

A personal trimmer or eyebrow razors. They are harmless and easy.

Its not good to tweeze the eyebrows before age 17. I expect waxing is about the same.

The people who are saying get it waxed are most likely drawing on fake eyes brows or doing tinting since their eyebrows are so thin.

I don’t think she’s to young to wax

Don’t. There is nothing wrong with her face. Mammals have hair and sometimes humans, as mammals, have hair all the way across their brow. If she asks you for advice removing it, give her options. But don’t act like she is obligated to change her face in order to be beautiful.

Take her to get them threaded. Quick, and easy, and they shape them perfectly for you.

Have a woman’s day mama!! Nails, brows and waxing!!! Don’t push her to do it but ask her if she wants it!!!

Is tweezing a big deal? My father had to use the tweezers so it wasn’t a big deal to me. Just focus on the ones in the middle; plucking them doesn’t hurt much. Avoid threading and such… I hear that’s extremely painful. Keep it simple for now. A unibrow really isn’t a big deal. We all have quirks; no body is perfect. Don’t give it a lot of energy.

This is what my daughter asked for (she’s 14) it’s amazing :star_struck: I even have one.

Either have a pro do it or let her learn how to shape them at home with one of those eyebrow razors

Go for a mani/pedi and brow wax for BOTH of you. Set it up ahead of time and act like it’s just a part of process.

My daughter was the same. We started waxing at 11 coz she was getting picked on about it… it hurt at first but she will get used to it.
