    14 isn't a bad age at all.. It's best to get it waxed before you pluck though, because then it gives you an outline and you don't make many mistakes. ;]

    get them done at 16. my mom thinks im too young also. im 13 though. i used my allowence to buy some tweezers, and i secretly do it. NOW she knows, and shes okay with it, but u should ask ur mom to do it for u. or, just do it urself. if ur doing it right, she wont notice much of a difference, since its supposed to look natural, right? the key is not to overpluck. oh and never pluck on the top. only pluck on the bottom or else it will ruin the shape. here's an article on how to do it the right way:

    oh, and ps: waxing hurtsssssssssssssss. i dont recommend it. u break out all over ur eyebrows and it causes sagging of the skin under ur eyebrows after a while

    I got mine first done at 15 because I went to a sleepover and my eyebrows got mutilated by my friends.

    But then my mom wouldn't let me get them done until 16. If you can... tell her how you feel and tell her that it makes you self conscious about the hair in the middle.

    I was 12 when I first got them waxed.

    My mum made me, I was just starting high school and she said it isn't a very pretty look to have unwaxed eyebrows!

    I was hesitant at first but i was glad I got it done.

    If she won't let you wax it just pluck it out.

    just pluck them if you only have a few

    I started getting mine waxed at 11 but thats because I have MAN eyebrows!! Seriously if yours aren't that bad just buy a good pair of tweezers and pluck them make sure you don't over do it.

    Don't worry about your eyebrows just be a kid you will have plenty of time in your life to get rid of unwanted body hair

    just pluck them shell never know. i hate when parents dont want u doing things its your own body do what you want! REBEL!

    or get them threaded.. i didnt like how waxing came out the lady messed them up! nd the wax stayed on ur eyes sometimes it feels nasty!

    i was 11 when i first got mine waxed, but i paid for it myself. if it bothers you, you should tweeze them, but actually waxing hurts a lot less. tell your mom that and offer to pay, im sure it will make a dent.
