Ha-ha well there might be men who get theirs waxed :P

My unladylike bit is understanding what 'eyebrows needing done' means. It just goes over my head.

But I have checked with some female pals just in case I look a stare and they've said my brows are fine. Phew

You never know. Ha! I'm someone who gets my eyebrows done twice a year. So when I do get them done it's because they 'need doing'.

I have to laugh because, ok while I don't get my eyebrows done in a salon, I'm still reminded of my granny when she said of me as a kid "never trust a man with a uni-brow"

I've always just shaved the middle bit in between, to give them some separation

To be fair, you should be fine, a monobrow is only really a problem for people with 2 eyes.

My friend whos into health fads and body building trying to convince everyone he knows (through facebook) to become a vegetarian because of the who thing about processed meats, it only increases the chance of cancer 1% (not even telling you whether its correlation vs causation) and he smokes so I think I'm fine and I will take all his bacon then

This article. http://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/shortcuts/2015/nov/10/heading-football-health-hazard-kids-brain-damage

Didn't open the article? The main point of it is; American Soccer has banned kids under ten years old from heading the ball.

Personally I think it's a stupid thing to ban and it should be up there with the overly sensitive (easily offended). It's part of the sport. You don't want a kid to header a ball due to risk of brain damage? What are you going to do next, stop tackles in case they break their legs? Stop running in case you twist your ankle? Stop kicking the ball in case you fracture your big toe? Come off it, like. It's part of football/soccer to head a ball. I have never, in my life, heard of a case of brain damage coming up in youth football due to headers.

I'd say it's a subjective matter as in it depends in which way you look at it. Well that's how I see it and I see it as a stupid decision.

That's my TA for the week, I'd say.

Fair enough I stand corrected. First impression was "that really annoys me".

I've never had my eyebrows done, or eyelashes. Ive never had anything waxed. I've never had a tan done, or a massage or ever been on a spa day. I've never had make up done. I had a manicure and pedicure once, only because it was part of the night away. I put off getting my hair done till the bitter end. Sometimes I annoy myself by wondering what's up with me that I have absolutely no interest in any of it. I think it's probably that I just don't like people at me!

You're just like me! There's only one hairdresser I'm comfortable going to, the lady who cut my hair since I was little. I live 55 miles away but my parents still live nearby so I can get a cut when I'm home for a visit. I dread to think what I'll do when she decides she's cut enough hair and hangs up her scissors for good. I like her because she's got no airs or graces!

I like the "one woman operation" salons... I hate passing through three different people for washing/ cutting/ styling like a piece of machinery on a conveyor belt.

I hate when dog owners leave plastic bags of dog poo BESIDE bins in parks. Is this a spiteful act ? I think so. The bins aren't full whenever I see it happening
