Bushy Eyebrows

Bushy Eyebrows

Your Problem:
Bushy Eyebrows

The Cause:
Cave Man Theory
Bushy eyebrows are a tricky problem. Popular eyebrow theory suggests that evolution gave you these patches of strategically placed hair to catch perspiration running off your forehead (with the use of hats and headbands, we expect eyebrows to be extinct in 20 million years).

The Amenity Authority Solution:
Trim or Tweeze
Whatever you do, don't shave them because they will return thicker and with blunt ends. Lock yourself in the bathroom with a good mirror and a pair of decent tweezers (invest in some good ones that really grip the hair). Don't get caught in this compromising position. Your pulling technique is important as the hairs come out much easier if you follow the direction of growth. Pluck hairs towards your ears except in between the eyebrows where the top ones should be plucked upwards and the bottom downwards. Yes it does hurt a bit, but you get used to it! And eventually, the hairs don't grow back as quickly or plentifully.
