Normally I spend $8 to get my brows waxed, but I was convinced by an employee to come spend $22 for a waxing experience at the Benefit brow bar where they would "map my brows." The woman who did my brows was very nice and chatty. And she shaped them well. Only problem - she left me with 2nd degree burns on my left brow bone! When she held up the mirror and asked me how I liked them, I saw that my skin was way more red and blotchy than normal, but I assumed maybe I had become more sensitive or I was just not used to their wax. By the evening though, it became clear that something was wrong. The redness on my right side was totally gone, but my left was still raw and stinging badly. I had a wedding the next day and had to use a ton of green concealer to hide the situation. It's now two days later and I have a boomerang-shaped scab that is starting to peel. Beware!
