plucked eyebrows?

[Geezer]

There are guys who pluck their eyebrows?


Wow, am I out of touch.

The only two men I ever knew of that plucked their eyebrows were the old 40's and 50'smovie star, Tyrone Power, and of course, our President, George W. Bush.

Both were unibrows, so they pluck out the middle to look a bit less grotesque in photos.

Less grotesque. LOL.

Well it worked for Tyrone Power. According to his bio, producers and casting agents wouldn't touch him... and he was connected up the wazuu. He was the third generation of one of the great acting families.

Then some bright make up artist talked him into plucking his unibrow, and wham! He's got contracts being thrown at him.

As for W... Well, there's only so much a little plucking can do.

TONS of guys pluck especially in my area (pretentious bastids, lol). The trick is plucking them so it doesn't LOOK like you pluck.

too many guys pluck them to the point of them looking like complete queens...

moderation and technique is key.

How often does it have to be done?

if u shave em you have to do it very often..like every few days
if you pluck em..less often itll take longer to grow back..maybe two weeks
and if you wax ..hmmm......about as long as plucking but wax makes them look better

Sweet! Do they serve alcohol there?

no ;( but i usually get drunk before doing it!

I got mine waxed years ago, but it was kinda costly and annoying to go back every 2 weeks. So I just plucked them as they came back in. But gradually of course it wasn't as perfect as it was when I had them waxed. So I grew mine back in so I could get them waxed so I have a perfect guide again for a while But right now they are driving me nuts until I can get them done (I don't go just anywhere to get them done, don't trust all people)

Sometimes if a place over-waxes or if you over-pluck, some hairs don't really grow back, or at least it won't be the same as originally. It happened to a friend of mine. 6 months later she still has that little thin line where it was once over-waxed and you can see the slight "old" border of the arch

Damn. Are you a bear or something?

[dochira]

I've never plucked my eyebrows (except for those pesky unibrow bridgers ) and I don't think they are that thick.

Being Asian, I can't say that I've worried too much about that.

Though I sure as hell would like to grow a goatee... Magic Marker anyone??
