To wonder how much bigger eyebrows can get

[R3b3kah]

And shit... this just sums it up if the picture has attached.

I’m only 29 so not exactly old... or maybe I am

My brows are over plucked more than anything, so not perfect... but why do girls have to over do it on the brow palette

Mine are micropigmentation. Very subtle, I do a lot of close up portrait and beauty shots so they have to be good!

Have a watch of the eyebrow guy!

It’s the focus on eyebrows i find weird.

Someone posts a selfie and many of the comments talk about the eyebrows. Wtf?

What happened to you look lovely or other general complement? It’s all eyebrows on fleek or whatever the younguns are saying.

If someone said to me they liked my eyebrows i’d assume i looked so fucking awful that was the only nice thing they could find to say.

I just wish people would leave their brows alone. Most people look best natural- overplucking or drawing them on with a sharpie just seems plain strange to me.

I think they look astonishingly daft but to be fair some of the things that were in in my youth no doubt looked astonishingly daft to adults then. I do hope massive hairsprayed flicks come back in.

It's just fashion isn't it? No worse, IMO, than the over plucked eyebrows from my youth!

I have quite light eyebrows and have never done anything to them. Never plucked, used pencil nothing.

I don't get the big dark slug eyebrows at all. I think they look awful and just distract from someone's face. No matter how attractive the person is the eyebrows just ruin it.

I can understand that youngsters do it to follow fashion but one of my friends who is the same age as me (60's) has just had hers microbladed and they look ridiculous. She has blonde hair and now 2 big black hairy eyebrows. Her eyebrows were fine before

The girl in the window of our local McDonalds Drive-Thru has such massive drawn on brows, all gungey and thick, in a strange shade of auburn (she is blond) that my kids actually sniggered when they saw her the other day. It was quite a shock! She didn't hear, thankfully, and I told them off. But still, how can she look in the mirror and think they look good!?

I blame the Gallagher brothers.

I think they do this to make other people laugh. It's hillarious to me

Is that actually you Ollivander? Very nice eyebrows. (Not saying that because I can't think of anything nice to say, obvs!)
Mine are microbladed, very subtly. They were bushy but I over plucked in my teens.
I paid a lot and got someone really good (this is key)and now they just look symmetrical and groomed.

@IfNotNowBernard yes it is

That's great @Haworthia I'm genuinely glad you're happy with them. (My son is very fair and has no eyebrows but I suspect he won't care).

However - you also did just prove my point a bit

I didn’t prove your point, I disagreed with it!

ward off a unibrow or excessively bushy brows... I’d love to see the natural shape of girls’ brows.

Unibrows and bushy brows are natural, why do they need to be warded off?

@kikipost The first day, they do look a bit too dark, plus there may be some redness around them from the hair removal. As soon as you wash your face, the darkness/obviousness of them fades a bit - but the first day is definitely not the best day, don't get them done on the morning of your wedding

Funnily enough Ukelou - I was just about to comment about Fabulous Audrey, but fortunately read the thread and found you had beaten me to it!

And yet she looked gorgeous - but then, she didn't have an orange face and fat fish lips and an expression that would have soured cream - maybe that's the difference.

Frida Kahlo had quite impressive eyebrows, too (and quite an impressive moustache).

I have absolutely no idea what most of the terminology of this thread is about. PMSL about why is it now a makeup trend though £££££ for Revlon etc I imagine.

Mine have always been straight, I pluck stray hairs or any that are particularly outrageous. That's all no one has ever commented on them. I couldn't give a shit tbh and haven't noticed that many people with what is described on this thread either. Obviously I know the wrong people or I just don't notice who knows

They are just eyebrows after all.

The eyebrows guy needs to focus on the road! Jesus fucking Christ driving and doing ‘comedy’ at the same time?

Mine are microbladed as my own are very light and have no tails

Well the beauty industry decided it was time to cash in on eyebrows, after making vast amounts of money from skincare, eyes and lips, wonder what they will zone in on next to mess around with.
Eyeballs?

Love this thread
I am very fair and looked like a pantomime dame.

they really stood out for a film made in 1959. I actually shouted my dd to come look and even she said they were 'on fleek'

@Haworthia I think good micro blading looks great.
