Yeah that picture is pretty fucking hideous. Just thought I would show everyone that its is a very bad idea to shave your eyebrows off if your too lazy too draw them back on.

I have odd eyebrows. they're thick on the... inside of the arch, and really thin on the outside. it's cuz when I was in grade 8 I just took out all the spaced-out parts and I ended up with funny eyebrows. I kinda like them though, but the thick bits are a bit too thick, but I'm scared to do anything with them because I'm afraid I'll screw up.

I pluck. I can't afford waxing, and I would not trust a razor so close to my eye.

a girl at my school once shaved off most of her eyebrows (which where brown) and tried to fill them in with red pencil to match her orange hair! poor girl, everyone was making fun of her. anyway my brows are brown and whenever my hair is at it's natural color people try to tell me that I'm not blonde and I look funky cause my brows dont match my hair. in my oppinion, waxing looks the best, but tweezing is better because if you mess up when your waxing your screwed, but at least it you tweeze its only one little mistake

my crappy brows

The hair follicles in my brows are thick and dark, which would be hard to maintain if I shaved them really thin. I always wanted to pluck my brows thin but I would probably screw up and look very silly. My mom says "Why would you want to do that to your face! It will make you look like an old lady. It's tasteless! youl'll look like a whore! Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!" Yes I'm a 16 year old dork still living with my mother who doesn't approve of my taste. She's the one with her brows tattooed on and very finely plucked. How hypocritical. So I shape my eye brows to a more natural look.

I used to shave my eyebrows completely off and drew them in, but it looked bad on me and took forever for me to grow them back in.

Now I just keep them semi-thin and shaped.

I really don't mess with them much. Sometimes I wish I could shave them off and then draw them on, but I don't.

I've seen some people with shaved-off-drawn-on eyebrows, and it looks really cool; especially since you don't really ahve to stick to a regular eyebrow shape (though there was this one security guard at the National Gallery that I saw a couple times, and she had REALLY REALLY ugly drawn-on eyebrows). I don't trust myself that much with a pencil.

My eyebrow's in my avatar pic. I pluck... I prefer waxing, because if I'm going to be yanking out the hair anyway it's nice to yank all the hair I want out at once instead of one at a time.

But yeah... I go with a fairly natural eyebrow.

I just pluck the hairs that stray down onto my eyelids. I inherited a good natural shape from my mother. I do, however, use a pencil to darken or lgihten them to a shade that goes well with whatever color my hair happens to be that day/week/whatever.
Dying your eyebrows is a really bad idea. believe me. Some kid working at Hot Topic sassed me the other day and I made fun of his eyebrows. They were dyed blue. It looked terrible.

I never understood why women think it's attractive to shave their eyebrows and draw them in? It's a far cry from being attractive and it looks tacky. I highly suggest tweezing or waxing.

Please, make it stop.

My eyebrows grow in rather wierd, best way to describe is that I have a cowlick over my left eye. And it's in a placement that I can't really pluck and shape it, so the only real options I have are A) Look odd with mishapen eyebrows; and B) Get rid of 'em.

So usually I pluck them all, or shave when I'm feeling lazy. Out of spite (and the fact that I'm a guy) I don't draw them in either. Most say it's a good look for me, brings out my eyes and such. I just find it more appealing since I'm generally not to fond of any form of body hair in general. *shrug*

-If you have a cowlick on the brow, snag a pair of brow scissors and shorten the strays. Better yet, one of those pen shaped trimmers.

-Eyebrow pencils, and brushes are your ::friend::

Thank you but, sadly I've tried this already. The patch is effin' huge, and my brow hair doesn't grow out that long to begin with. So, trimming it gives me skin. Dammed if I do, dammed if I don't at that point.

No part of a woman's or man's anatomy is damned.

It is loved, spoiled and showered with attention.

I wish I had a few more bits of advice for you=\. A good set of brows changes the look of a face completely, just like bangs.

Oh I appreciate the advice, thank you. And like I said I've started to become rather attached to the lack of brows.

Talking

Ha, ha, ha, he-he, he-he! That is so wrong but funny. Although others may find it highly offensive.

I can't tell you how many of those chicks I saw at school today. It's like can you say "stereotype?''

Personally, I pluck my eyebrows, as really they only need adjusting so they don't look like they're mating.

Completely removed eyebrows I think while they don't look dreadful on everyone, I've never seen them look better than natural, shaped eyebrows.

Hey...

How in the hell did my cousins get an ad deal for Sharpie?!

Lies. All of it.

On a more serious note:

>_< Eyebrows like that only work on anime characters. Even then...:|
