No, it's not necessarily bad. You just want to make sure that you're super careful. You don't want to accidentally rip a chunk out of your eyebrows that you didn't want to remove!

Don't pluck or tweeze your eyebrows at all in the week or so leading up to your appointment. That way, the hair removal will be totally uniform. Also, don't wear makeup to your appointment.

Well, it's kind of an awkward part of your body to wax if you're doing it at home. I'd say you may not be cleaning your skin thoroughly enough if I had to guess. You really do need a clean, even bead of wax to get all of the hair, and that's hard to do if your skin is dirty at all.

You can wax that area again if you want. You can also just pluck the stray hairs with some tweezers, though. It's totally up to you.
