Forget about tree rings, use eyebrows

[CatsGoPurrrr]

Because, eyebrows can be used to 'date' you.

Obviously not like, 'date' date

I'm currently growing my eyebrows out after a couple of disastrous threading sessions in Superdrug and now have a very nice lady keeping them tidy and offering me advice.

When we were chatting, she mentioned that the only people who wanted really thin/shaped eyebrows were middle aged women who were stuck in a rut, because 'no one' wants their brows like that, these days.

I've been looking at my friends eyebrows (which sounds weird, I know!!) and as we're all about the same age, all of us except me and my friend who's a Beauty Therapist have very, very thin brows.

I guess then, that she's right. It's made me think about all sorts of things I do/use out of habit.

I feel like a work in progress atm. I'm growing out my over highlighted hair and reckon I have about 9/10 m to go on that. My hair is cut into a long bob until they're gone.

My eyebrows haven't been this thick since my teens.

I am trying very hard to avoid ruts, but I know they're out there.

I don't want to look young/younger. I'm in my early 40s and happy with that. But does anyone have any advice on what I can do to avoid getting stuck in a rut and what sort of things I should be keeping an eye on?

Andrea Leadsome's are too thin I think.
In fact there is a thread in Chat on her eyebrows

I just had my eye brows micro bladed recently- totally different effect to tattooing as you can see each hair stroke so it looks very nautral.

Archedbrose I'm north west too! I used a girl in Bolton who is so lovely. ( she has a website called the brow cow)

I'm in my late forties, my next will be fifties. I've never been one to follow fashion too closely but when I see something is no longer fashionable I'm happy to get rid DBC I do keep myself loosely up to date. My eyebrows aren't thin abc never have been, I've never highlighted my hair, I hated that look, but it is dyed.

I guess the trick is to just trundle along on the edge of current trends, lol

DBC? I mean 'and' lol

Pray, tell, what is the bob of doom???!

I finally had the courage to believe the beautician and have grown my eyebrows! I now have them threaded, shaped and lightly tinted every 4-6 weeks and I am so pleased! I get loads of comments and they have made me look younger and I feel much better even with no make up. I do now seem to judge others eyebrows!!
