Which hair removal method is commonly performed as part of makeup application and involves plucking individual hairs?

• A. Waxing
• B. Shaving
• C. Threading
• D. Tweezing

Answer: (D)

Tweezing focuses on removing individual hairs with tweezers, making it ideal for precision shaping during makeup application, especially for defining the eyebrows. Because hairs are pulled one by one, you can target stray or stubborn hairs without disturbing the surrounding area, resulting in clean, well-defined brows that frame the face. It’s quick for small areas, doesn’t require chemicals, and the results last longer than shaving. In contrast, waxing pulls multiple hairs at once from a larger area, threading uses a twisted thread to pull hairs along a line, and shaving cuts hair at the surface, which isn’t great for precise brows. So, the method that fits “plucking individual hairs” and is commonly used in makeup prep is tweezing.
