“I realize this may be an unpopular opinion, and please feel free to disagree with me because, honestly, who really cares, but I believe women’s current eyebrow fashions are today’s 80s hair.
They’re scaring the crap out of me. Why are they so…harsh?
And the more “skilled” the applier, the more harsh the eyebrows become. Any time someone shows me wedding photos or bachelorette party photos where they had a makeup artist do everyone’s makeup, I have to restrain myself from physically recoiling, yelling, “Shit!” and then driving my car into the ocean.”
NOT a fan. Nope.

I agree. Heavy dark eyebrows look bad on everyone. Even Groucho, poor guy. I always think of his eyebrows as two woolly worms inching across his face. Not cool.

The thing is he painted his eyebrows and silly moustache for comic effect whereas modern woman are not looking for that response, although some of them certainly get it.

My eye-brow are feeble…so I am envious of other people’s eye-brows.
But I must admit I have seen some scary looking eye-brows around. There was a woman on the bus yesterday and whatever she or someone else had done to her, it just looked bizarre. I no zilch about make-up and I don’t understand why someone would go so over-the-top with their eye-brows. But if it makes them happy and more confident, each to their own.

This is true. Makeup can make or break how you feel about your day so it’s no skin off my nose if you go for broke in the brow department. Sometimes it gets a little hard not to stare, though… 😯

Thanks so much for the re-blog! 😁 I’m hoping to change the eyebrow landscape, one lie-brow at a time, and with everyone’s help, I think we can achieve this goal.

You’ve got a supporter here. Maybe we can start a support group for lie-brows in recovery. “Do your eyebrows scream LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE? Then have we got the group for you.” 😆

What’s funny is that lie-brows are nothing new. Back in the day, women like my mom had eyebrow pencils to fake up their eyebrows into weird angles to go with their violent red lipstick and pointy bras etc. Everything old is new again!

There was a fashion for women to pluck their eyebrows until there was just a very thin line which they could enhance with an eyebrow pencil. I’m not sure when it was but 70’s 80’s perhaps, which is why you can see older ladies now with no eyebrows as they didn’t grow back. Fashion, don’t you love it?

I let someone “professionally” pluck my brows in the late ‘90s and she practically erased them. Guess she was of the Thin Is In mentality. It took me years to even get them partially grown back!!

I’m lying a bit with my brows right now — they’re nonexistent without some pencil — but girls today seem to be drawing on some sort of box then pencil/paint them in. It’s…severe.
