My 7-year-old wants to get rid of her unibrow...should I let her?

If it’s bathing her, take her to have it done. Do not shave it.

Have a sit down with her and ask her if she feels bad about them? Or if darn kids are making fun of her. Reassure her she is beautiful no matter what. And see what she wants to do

I’d take her to get it waxed if she’s already attempting to fix it herself

Let her! She’s probably getting bullied for it , but please dont shave it that will make it grow faster and thicker

You do it for her… at home with a home kit found in the drug store or the n Amazon, so she doesn’t fool around with razors to try herself.
If you start in with a salon …at 7 years old…it’ll cost you over $ 50 - 150 bucks or more you are roped into appts. & paying for upkeep every month or so.
Start with just the center uni part.
She can get into more advanced shaping if she wants when she’s a teen…and she’ll know how to use the home kits because you’ve been working with her.

I highly suggest sugar waxing!!

Pluck it for her or wax it so it don’t come back so quick

I did. She asked and I said sure. It made her so happy. I wouldn’t have done it until she asked though. :slightly_smiling_face:

Easily fixed and not a big deal however probably not wise that the child does any of it lol you don’t want any mishaps and her losing a brow. Id also explain what happens if you over do it with tweezing so she’s not tempted to do it herself until she’s older

Once my girls started mentioning things they were uncomfortable is when I really listened. By 8 my girls were both having yheir eyebrows done(wax/tweezing).

Least explain shaving it will make it grow back thicker and darker. Maybe offer to pluck one hair so she sees how it will feel?

If it’s bothering her take her to get it waxed

Use one of those little finishing touches shavers, I use it for my brows - super simple, no risk of cutting

I would have an esthetician handle it.

Absolutely if that’s what makes her feel comfortable let her while also telling her there’s nothing wrong with it it’s just hair literally everyone grows hair in all places it’s a normal bodily function but if it makes her feel more confident to not have a unibrow then help her shave it
My mom wouldn’t let me shave in the 6th grade :upside_down_face:I got called gorilla by everyone on my bus for the long black hair on my legs so let her shave unless she’s confident enough to tell them to f*ck off

I would not get it waxed. She’s too young and at that age skin can be so sensitive. I use this. It’s at Walmart, and it doesn’t hurt and works amazing!

If she’s asking about it, then it’s definitely bothering her, maybe bringing her self-esteem down? Maybe one of the kids in the class said something? I’d recommend getting it waxed for her.

I would let her if she’s uncomfortable

This really shouldn’t be a question? Would you wanna walk around being made fun of for a unibrow. Not like she is asking to shave her legs. 

Yes why even ask . She probably feels insecure and can get bullied too.

I’d find out why she wants them done, incase there is teasing or something going on than you camaybe sort it out if you think it needs to be, but your daughteris beautifulno matterwhat, but I’d definitely still get them done if she is asking about it!

Definitely…if she was trying to take it out… I feel it’s bothering her. And other kids can be nasty!

Buy a flawless I been doing my son unibrow since the age of 4 pain free with one x

I pluck my daughters one for her as she asked me to & she gets bullied enough at school sadly.

I let my daughter use an electric brow shaver since she was 11 It eliminated cutting and painful removal. She’s 16 now and still has never used anything different. Just be sure she knows to be careful cause one wrong move and she has shaved a line through her brow or shaved off and edge.

Thread them don’t shave!!

what isn’t safe about it? Assist her with a pair of tweezers. Tell her shaving will make it more unsightly. She may not be willing to tell you the reason but it’s very likely she finds it offensive or she’s being teased. Let that 7 year old tweeze, or take her to have it waxed. There’s not one thing unsafe about getting rid of unwanted hair by the right methods

I wouldn’t let her shave it, the head bleeds too much if you or she happen to cut it… I would take her to get it waxed and it lasts longer too…

With the eye brows I would get them done by a professional but if she’s wanting to shave her legs or under arms I would buy her an electric razor for her to start out with until she is older

I started getting my eyebrows done(waxed) around 8-9. I don’t think it’s a bad age to start discussing things with her and allowing her to get it removed if it makes her happy. Girls are starting puberty A LOT earlier and that’s something some moms need to understand. The body hair is coming in as early as 4yrs old. Our daughter’s pediatrician asked if our 4 year old was starting to get pubic hair because apparently that’s a normal thing happening now. Do what YOU feel is right for YOUR child.

Would you get rid of your unibrow?

DO NOT SHAVE IT !!! Explain you can wax it but will hurt like a bitch, and will have to be kept up for rest of life. Tell her it’s up to her but waiting longer could be better or actually waxing now will lessen for later years!!! Wax it !

Yes…why give her unnecessary insecurities and trauma?

I’m with most opinions on here…take her to get them waxed. Get yours done first. Don’t shave them,or let her shave them. That’s not a good idea :wink:

Yes of course you should let her…. It’s her body and should be her decision. I would recommend waxing or plucking over shaving though.

Take care of that babies unibrow

Yes, because kids are mean.

I would wax it for her if she’s adamant about it or especially if she’s getting picked on about it. My son has a bit of a unibrow and I started tweezing it for him when he was around 12 because he was self conscious about it. Girls tend to become more self conscious much earlier than boys do though.

Help her to shave it off or waxed.
She is clearly not comfortable with it

never shave an eyebrow. take her to a pro

Yes, I take my daughter. She didn’t tell me that some kids would ask her about it and it would make her feel uncomfortable. She’s 8 now, I’ve been taking her for 2 years. We get hers threaded. You don’t necessarily need to get them done. Just ask to clean them up a bit.

If you don’t mind and u do some research on the safest way to shape her eyebrows I’d let her. It’s really up to u and dad.

Help her get rid of it asap. It’s facial hair not a tattoo.

Don’t shave it please. Get a little self wax kit at Walmart and wax

Why is it a question if you should teach your daughter how to maintain herself?

Yes, kids are fucking mean now a days and someone probably said something to her to make her even considering asking you to get rid of it.

Help her wax or help her use an eye brow razor, they aren’t as easy to cut yourself with

If it upsets them, yes. Introduce waxing. Shaving can cause ingrown hairs and is quicker, and less room for error

Get rid of it before she shaves of all her eyebrows. I wouldn’t want a uni-brow either!

Of course you should. Why would you want to punish the poor girl by making her put up with something that’s causing her to be self concious. Wax it for her or pluck it.

You don’t need to make a thing of it.
Go to the drug store and buy the wax strip and just do it. Make it a part of her routine. One strip will take it off and that’s it.

Take her to get them waxed it’s only like $10-15

She could be getting made fun of at school. I would teach her how to maintain it. It’s only unsafe if she’s not taught properly.

Take her to get them done properly, kids are horrible she’s prob being teased.

For heavens sakes yes! Unibrows are so ugly,

Yes don’t want kids to pick. If she says she wants it gone, it’s not surgery, help her.

Yes very much so mom :heart::heart::heart::heart:

This would be a great time for mom to have a heart to heart with her, I’m willing to bet she’s being picked on sadly. That would be a great start to mommy and daughter selfcare days :heart:.

Yes please allow her to get it taken care of if it’s bothering her. Those type of things really impact self esteem.

If it’s obvious to others then yes, I’d let her. Don’t let her do it by herself of course.

I’d absolutely take her to have them done. Get them done together, she’ll remember it forever :heart:

Yes. Let her meaning take her to get it done.

You absolutely should. Self esteem is everything.

I would ask her if she wants to remove it and then just do it if she says yes. I don’t personally think it’s worth it to force kids into keeping something they’re insecure about, just to make a point. Just let her know that you will do it for her until she is old enough to safely do it herself, unless she changes her mind about wanting it removed.

Absolutely yes! Why let her be self conscious. It is not hurting her if she removes it.

Help her or she will shave her eyebrows off like I did when I was a kid :joy::joy::joy: I have super fluffy eyebrows that will be a unibrow if I don’t pluck them lol.

Let her or she’ll eventually do it herself… I had one and one year had no eyebrows because of this right here.

It’s better to either shave it or get take her to get them. Done rather then her doing it on her own my younger sister when she was little shaved them herself due to my parents not wanting to listen kids were making fun of her

Do it. I remember my Grandmother not letting me shave my legs😢it affected my confidence and then I snuck to do it and cut myself.

Yes! Teach her about the different ways to get rid of the hair. Waxing hurts and they make specific razors just for that

I would get it waxed. Much neater and safer than a razor

If shes self consious about it, most likely because kids are picking on her, then shave it for her til shes older and then either pluck or wax it. If you dont she will go behind your back and do it herself

I’d help her do it but find a better way than using a razor

My daughter is half Portuguese dad is Portuguese and hairy as hell lmfaro!!!

She is too, shes too young now but I know this time will come

Sorry don’t have advice at all

Ooh yeah razors :grimacing::grimacing:. I remember being 14 and shaving my leg and I cut myself so bad the whole bathroom looked like a crime scene

Those things are flipping dangerous
