Question

Is it allowed for a Muslim woman to pluck eyebrow and remove hair on the face

Answer

Since Prophet Mohammad Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam mentioned laanat (curse) at this act, a Muslim woman is not allowed to pluck her eyebrows. However, she can remove hair from her face (like upper lips and cheeks).

And Allah knows best.
