Eyebrows are a subject near and dear to my heart. Several years ago, I decided to jump from tweezing them (not plucking...you pluck chickens, not your face) to having them waxed. Well, I should have done more research or trusted my gut instinct, because the waxer took me from a neatly trimmed caterpillar to a very thin line. My eyebrows did not enjoy this process and they retaliated. They fell out. <---- kinda how I looked at the time

They've grown back some, but I have to use pencil and powder to fill things in.

That's my sad little story of why I covet nice, thick eyebrows like Brooke Shields and probably yours too. Here's the rule of thumb created by beauty "experts": take a pencil and angle it from the inside corner of your eye up. Where it falls should be a good starting point for your brow. Now, is it written in stone? No, because some people look better with the brow a little further in (toward the nose) or a little further back (opening the eye up more). But it's a good rule of thumb.

I absolutely agree that a unibrow is unacceptable but if you've shaved or waxed about at least an inch down the middle, you should be fine. That's a respectable look, imo.

If your girl keeps on you about this, then mention my story and tell her it could be worse....you could have little to none at all.
