Tweezing is a great way to shape eyebrows or for removing those annoying stray hairs on the face and chin. Always try and tweeze in the same direction that the hair grows. This prevents unnecessary pulling. Also try and avoid tweezing hairs in the nasal canal. This can often result in an infection.

Preparing To Tweeze

Before you begin tweezing, cover the area with a warm face cloth or similar for a minute or two. This will open the pores which will make it easier to remove the offending hairs.

 

Take Care When Tweezing

 

One thing to avoid doing, is applying creams or moisturizers before tweezing. This may result in an infection of the skin pores or worse may make you slip with your tweezers. When working around the eyes always be extra vigilant!
