of eyebrows and regrets

i think i laughed out loud when i read the following sentence in a magazine: "one of my biggest regrets in life: over-plucking my eyebrows."

let us keep a small bit of perspective here. it is statistically probable that today, some people gambled away their life savings. some folks behaved badly and got fired. some driver talking on the phone hit and killed someone.

honey, if your eyebrows are one of your biggest regrets, you are one of the most fortunate people ever to live.

that said, over-plucking is certainly a personal grooming tragedy. i've personally never found the pencil-line brows to be the least bit attractive, but that's just me. i had a girfriend that religiously waxed her eyebrows, and occasionally overdid the tails to nothing, looking a little like spock. rowr - not. however, professionally shaped and groomed eyebrows are certainly quite nice. kristian alfonso gets my vote for best eyebrows ever.

so if you are reading this and you are vain ;) and you live in the st. paul/minneapolis area, you can visit extrados to discover a brow shape that will complement your face shape and structure.
