Fashion DIY tips and gratuitous plugs. And hair. Hair! Flow it, show it. Wait...no. That's some hippie musical. Nevermind. |

I'm a total Dresden Dolls whore and am constantly tempted to have my brows totally waxed off so that I can paint them in like Amanda does, they look so pretty... and then I remember that I can't use liquid eyeliner to just line my eyes, so there would be no hope to me trying to paint in even brows.
I had a patient who was in her 90's who would draw on her brows every morning. She wore these HUGE 1980's square plastic rimmed glasses, and needed them to see to put her eyebrows on, so they were way up on her forehead above the glasses rim. There were days that they looked like they were trying to crawl up into her hair because they were so high up her forehead.

Doesn't that suck? When I don't draw them in people are like "Do you SHAVE your eyebrows?", and when I do they're always like "Do you PENCIL IN your eyebrows?". People seem to think I CHOSE to have freakishly thin eyebrows.

I love you. Just for being a Dresden Dolls whore. ANYWHO. I thought that, too, and I just took the risk. Before, I could never use liquid eyeliner at all, but now my eyebrows look perfect.

Haha! I'm in PA. Right outside Philly. And while I'd love a drink, it'll have to be virgin, heh. I'm a youngling.

My girlfriend's sisters live in Phily.. so whenever we go to the US we end up spending a little time there. Next time we go I'll buy you a juice... although, you might be over-age by the time we next get our act together and drag our arses to the US.

haha, I am in PA also...
While some people have thin eyebrows, I look like what would happen if Tom Selek and Brooke Shields had a kid. Thank goodness for wax!

Hahaha. We can go to South Street and get bubble tea. Mmm...bubble tea...
Anyway. I will take that juice. And I will drink it.

It amazes me - the amount of conversation there can be on a post about eyebrows..

You'd be surprised, hahaha. I go through it nearly every day.
Plus, there's so many cool things you can do with eyebrows, so why not talk about them?

True, true..
I've never actually done anything interesting with my eyebrows (as far as shape goes, that is..). I'm planning on experimenting this spring break, just to see how different looking eyebrows may look on me..
So, for the people who shave off their eyebrows, how does one go about doing this?

That's not exactly rocket science - you get something to shave'em off with and try to shave off the hairs without cutting your skin (that's the hard part). I used to do this some time ago, but gave it up when I figured I just couldn't be bothered to draw'em on every morning.

Well, what I was mainly wondering was what exactly one would use to shave 'em off with.. It looks rather difficult to use a normal ol shaving razor and I don't like the idea of waxing..

Razor. It really isn't that difficult.

I was wondering how to shave my eyebrows too, does anyone know how long (approx) it takes for them to grow back??

I had mine shaved and drawn on very thinly, but my school made me grow them back. As soon as I graduate they are GONE.

That's so strange.
I mean, what if you had cancer and had to go through Chemo? Would they make you superglue false hair to your eyebrows?
