What is the correct way to apply a thin coat of wax when shaping the eyebrow?

When shaping the eyebrow, the correct technique is to apply a thin coat of wax in the same direction as the hair growth. This method ensures that the wax adheres effectively to the hairs, allowing for a cleaner and more precise removal during the waxing process. Following the natural direction of the hair minimizes the risk of breakage and ensures that the hairs are pulled out from the root, resulting in less discomfort and a smoother finish.

Applying the wax against the hair growth can lead to hair breaking or creating a less effective grip on the hairs, making the process more painful and less efficient. Using a circular motion may hinder the wax's ability to grab the hairs properly, while applying with a spatula is merely a method of application and doesn't specifically address the direction of wax application. Focusing on the direction of hair growth is crucial for achieving the best results in eyebrow shaping.
