    GlossaryPlucking (Manual Extraction)

    removing hair by pulling it out from the root

    Plucking, also known as tweezing, is a method of hair removal where individual hairs are pulled out from the root using a pair of tweezers. This technique is commonly used for shaping eyebrows or removing small amounts of unwanted hair on the face or body. While effective, it can be time-consuming and may cause temporary discomfort or redness.
