I can't tell the difference between tweezers, lol. Any tweezers that has a good hold on hair is good enough for me.

I use Manicare tweezers which are around $8 and when I bought it came with a free nail buffer. :p They haven't rusted even when the bench is all wet and they're pretty easy to use.

I like the Manicare tweezers that look like a pair of nail scissors. They grip better than any other pair of tweezers I own. I have the pointy-ended gunmetal Manicare ones for finer detail, too.

i think the ones i have r flat edged. im demented with the pointy ones. i got mine in coles for around 8 bux cos i lost my other few. they r heaps good, hav no idea what the brand is, i didnt really care i just desperately needed to fix mine one day.

mayb its actually manicare as well, name rings a bell but i aint sure.

Tweezerman. $20-30.

May as well spend a bit more, it's not like you'll need to buy new ones every year or anything.

I got mine from some manicure set that I bought and they work good.
I only pluck my eyebrows a bit because I'm scared that I'll wreck them lol.I don't want to overpluck them.
