TLDR: 👇🏻

1. Stop tweezing, I’m not going anywhere— but if you pull the wrong brown hairs they could be gone forever,
2. Start with the clean brow,
3. Listen to my suggestions not social media,
4. STOP TWEEEEEZING.

Number one cause of eyebrow blindness: TRENDS.

Good brows will always be GOOD brows regardless of the latest trends. The thing is that trends never age well. Don’t believe me? Think about Pamela Anderson’s brows.

This is not a critique on aging, this is a comparison of her natural brows vs her brows in the 90s. So don’t come for me.

Swipe to see what I mean.

Brows that fit your face will transcend time. Don’t fall into the illusive trends of today so you can save yourself from eyebrow blindness later.

In a world where a dozen eggs cost $8 know that it’s not lost on me that you choose to spend your heard earned money with my business— with me.

Thank you for supporting my dream.

Dearest Gentle Reader,

I’m here to tell you the painful truth about your eyebrows. Like all natural things, “symmetrical” is a status that simply put, does not exist. To try to chase such a thing will lead to nothing more than frustration and self-pity. You are perfectly imperfect, and you’re supposed to be. That is why I am here to help you to understand that balance is so much more important than symmetry. So please my dear friend, stop chasing the impossible and embrace balance.

Signed,
Lady Putthetweezersdown

I turned her away and pushed her appointment 👇🏻

‼️too many broken hairs‼️

If I threaded this babe today, she would have growth tomorrow; effectively throwing her money out of the window and into my pocket. My goal is to make sure that YOU get your money’s worth out of your time with me.

Hair growth happens in cycles and you can train them like you train your bangs. The more hair you remove at once, the longer your results will last. You don’t need to tweeze them every single day— or you’ll be tweezing them every single day. It will be a never ending chase.

You get results with patience. You get results with honesty. You get results by putting your tweezers away. You get results by booking an appointment at www.thewaxingpoetic.com 😉

Dear clients,

I love you for choosing my business.
I love you for celebrating my personal happiness.
I love you in the moments you might not love yourself.
I love that we get to laugh together.

Thank you for sticking around when I vomit in your hair (true story).
Thank you for coming back when I pooped my pants (true story).
Thank you for always being you.
Thank you for accepting me for me.

I love you 💕

Your brow girl/friend/biggest fan,
Kristy

brows that enter a room with you, not before you >

Brows should compliment your face, not be a beacon that shines when you walk into a room. 😬

I am very selective with who I do laminations on. It’s not a service for everyone, and it shouldn’t be done on just anyone. I am first and foremost interested in the health of your hair and your skin. Laminations require maintenance & if you fail to comply (it sounds scarier than commit) with the aftercare, you risk breaking your brow hair. I will NOT laminate anyone who is trying to regrow their brows back until we are out of the rehab phase.

I am not a brow artist just out to get your money and fill my book. I genuinely give a s**t and want you to have the best brows for your face AND lifestyle.

Histamine reactions are NORMAL & can happen whether you wax or thread.

It is temporary & will usually resolve itself within a few hours. Ice is your friend. DO NOT SCRATCH YOUR FACE OPEN WITH YOUR DIRTY HANDS.

That is all. Thank you.

*This literally happens to her every single time I thread her. She’s fine.*

Eyebrows are the bread and butter of this business, but the best part of my job is building relationships with you.

I am honored to be part of your self-care. You have no idea how much you’re part of mine. ❤️

⚠️ grow zone ⚠️

the two most important steps you can take to aid your brow rehab journey are:

1. STOP TOUCHING THEM. Remember how you ended up here in the first place. All it takes is one bad brow job for a lifetime (well like a year or so) of patience growing them back.
2. STICK WITH ONE ARTIST. Consistency will be the biggest factor in your result. Bouncing around artist to artist will only hinder your progress.

I’m always accepting new clients. However, the books are only open on a rolling 30 day basis. If you don’t see availability that works with your schedule, the waitlist is the best way to nab an appointment.

Notice anything?? 😏®️

Officially official! 🎉 14 months and all my money later & she OWNS A REGISTERED TRADEMARK.

Who has been here since Ulta? +10 points if you’ve been here since Ulta Monroe.

I wish Instagram was a thing when I started in 2013 so I can see the calamity.

It’s like they said in that movie, “if you leave them, they will grow” or something like that 😏

This brow rehab journey started back in Feb and I’m annoyed I didn’t take the ultimate before photo then.

You may not ever have the same density as before, but I’m here to help you bring back balance ⚖️

the best part of having two brows? Immediate before & afters.

from the (ARCH)Ives: my first lamination c. 2020

It’s important to look at where you started to see how far you’ve come. The juxtaposition of this brow to yesterday’s makes me SWEAT. 😅

Thankful for all of you that trust me & continue to ❤️

It’s time for a brow rehab lesson! When I talk about eyebrows, I generally refer to them in three different ways:

Your THICKNESS, How wide are your brows from top to bottom?

Your FULLNESS, or how dense are they, how much hair do you have?

And your LENGTH; where do your brows end?

Out of these three, thickness (followed by length) is actually the easiest to achieve. You can fake thickness even if your fullness isn’t there with makeup or other services.

Density is the hardest. Once a hair follicle is dead, like a human, there’s no coming back. If you are lucky and you do get some growth, the likelyhood of them coming in with the same texture they once had is slim to none. BUT LET THEM GROW. It’s easier to work with some hair vs no hair especially when it comes to specialized services like the natural, defined and soft brow— where the results are dependent on how much hair you have. Stay with me here *big inhale*

How long your results last, depends on how much hair you have. It doesn’t matter how fine it is, if it’s there, it will absorb the product. I want you to think about concrete— the sidewalks in town vs your garage floor. When it rains, the sidewalks will absorb the water and it will darken— but when you pull your wet car into your sealed garage, what happens? The water sits on top. Your brow hair is the untreated concrete in this metaphor. When tint is applied it will sit on top of the skin, but absorb into the hair. So as much as everyone loves that skin stain, it is ALWAYS going to fade first.

The bottom line? Stop tweezing your brows every time you see a hair. Let them grow and get on a schedule.

I’ll get off my soapbox now.

Getting a lamination doesn’t mean you have to look like you stuck your finger in a wall socket. You know what I’m talking about.

Sorry (not really) that Ive been less active on here. I’ve been leaning into life. Settling into finding my peace and my joy outside of brows, because contrary to what we’ve all been force fed for so long—what you do for work, isn’t who you are.

Enjoy what few photos I took of brows this month & don’t forget to prebook!

listen up, I do brows. I don’t take photos. So here’s a bad photo of good brows.

Whatever I’d do for a Klondike Bar, I’d double down for these brows.
