Eyebrows

I'm all for women empowerment etc.

But could someone explain what women are doing with their eyebrows.

Bizarre.

EMPOWERING!!!

(That is an actual model's unibrow! )

That can't seriously be real, is it?

Jesus I spend a lot of time making sure my eyebrows don't look like that... as naturally having a stupid amount, that's awful. Maybe I am just old...

I'm of the generation where us girls plucked away our eyebrows to nothing. I've spent years trying to grow them back to normal. The sad thing is that naturally I wouldn't be far off yer wan with the unibrow and I was bullied unmercifully for it until I got my hands on a tweezers. Seems my old unibrow would be all the rage now.

I CAN'T!

Lest I want to look like the much-quoted model.

I will allow for a SMALL and judicious amount of plucking...but I cannot offer any leeway at all on the colouring in! :mad: That's when ladies lose the run of themselves. I hope this trend will not spread to men, for if it does civilisation will fall.

Someone may quote that again. Along with the original picture. Just in case more people want to have nightmares about being strangled by a woman's eyebrows.

Mine are like frida Kahlo when I don't get them threaded. I wouldn't mind but I am quite fair and barely have any hair anywhere else. Just on my face. sigh.

In the event they hadn't grown back fully get a can of Rogaine foam or the liquid some men use to regrow hair

I've seen a couple women using the men's version and it brought back the eyebrow hair they had plucked away to nothing

Dial Hard

I looked like Eugene Levy until I was about 13. Then I discovered tweezers and, unfortunately, didn't put them down til I was about 21, by which time the (permanent) damage was done. So I fill them in and make no apologies for it. I don't personally get the Teen Wolf/Nosferatu look plenty of women seem to favour, but hey, *Unicode shrugging emoji* that's their call.

Still scratching my noodle as to how questionable eyebrows are a women's rights issue, though

Trigger Happy

I don’t like the extremes, too much or too little, or the painted on yokes. But a properly professionally maintained set of brows can look amazing on women imo.
Even Liam Gallagher can’t get away with the male uni brow look.

Does anyone have a bigger picture of that one with the unibrow?

It's aesthetics and artistic ability, maybe? Not everyone has artistic ability. We don't let random people with no artistic competence decorate our houses or design clothes etc and yet young ones have access to big black markers to scribble on their foreheads with no certification of aesthetic appreciation....et voila, lassies going round looking like they are cartoons.

LEAVE YOUR EYEBROWS ALONE!!!

I think this is the issue, when those bolder brows are done badly it doesn’t look good but when done right they can add to attractiveness.

I personally like the thicker eyebrow over the thin type.

And let’s face it, there’s not a man here who wouldn’t go off with that massive browed model if she showed an interest.

Jaysus, she has eyebrows on her like she did Ash Wednesday twice...

I tell you who are the happiest people around with this whole mad arched eyebrows thing that every young wan in the country seems to have going on.

Could you post a pic or link of what they're supposed to look like? Id love to know what they're aiming for.

I saw a sign on a wall in the makeup department of a posh shop in Belfast, Harvey nick I think

Eyebrows are sisters not twins

I laughed for about 10 minutes

I have a theory that crazy eyebrows reflect a crazy soul. And I don't mean ungroomed - that model everyone keeps posting is fine. Her eyebrows would be amazing with just a little grooming, but letting them go natural is fine. I'm talking about people who do groom their brows, but in a crazy way, like this lady: https://www.indy100.com/article/donald-trump-us-president-womans-eyebrows-healthcare-speech-upstaged-white-house-7862686

Just one look at those eyebrows and you know she doesn't make reasonable decisions.

hate it when ladies shave off their eyebrows and then pencil them on....it looks yuk!

I’m not going to do that.

Just look at any young modern model or actress and you’ll see the well defined eyebrow arching above the eye and then compare that to the young woman you see in the shop or local chipper still dressed in her pyjamas with the black paint rising two or three inches above the deep orange brow.

I would say the whole make up thing, and not just that fake tan. Although it is particularly hideous.
Really, is there a single man in history, that has ever thought, even once, that a women looked better with make up than without it ?
I've checked. There isnt. Not even one single case.
The cosmetics industry is built on delusion and desperation. And, worse, women look worse with it, not better.

Youre missing the point about makeup, we dont wear it to impress men, mens opinions dont come into it at all, we wear makeup because we like makeup, its a fun hobby that brings us joy.
I just bought another nude mac lipstick online this week, its a very similar shade to 3 other lipsticks I own in different brands, it also cost me 20 euro - Do you think I spent 20 euro on a mac lipstick when I could have bought one the same shade in pennies for less than fiver to impress men?? - I dont think so and youre delusional if you think your opinion is the driving force behind my makeup purchases.

Men will set for hours watching other men kick a ball around a field, they will spend hours playing video games and theyre not judged for it yet a feminine hobby is considered a waste of time, vain and for the benefit of men.
If you all disappeared tomorrow I would still wear makeup as im sure most women would.

A name at least? I dont know any model or actress that could be the inspiration behind the thick black eyebrows. But im old and may be out of the the loop more than i thought

This is getting weird now. I’m going to be honest and say that I am a little creeped out aiding and abetting your search.

I’ll give the example of that Cara Delevingne girl or the singer Dua Lipa and that’ll be that.

Starting to feel like I did when I accidentally saw one of my uncle’s explorer histories.

Member of early noughties over plucking club here. Went into an eyebrow place a few months before my wedding, on advice of my friends. 40 euro later, i came out looking like Liam Gallagher, running as fast towards my car as I could so nobody would see me.

A fringe is your friend. No pain or expense wasted on brow maintenance as they're always safely hidden away.
