I think your eyebrows are beautiful!!! (They are much better than mine
, I have to grow out the ends on both eyebrows because the lady I used to go to would wax them off and the new lady I go to, says to grow them out because it will make my eyes more noticeable or something lol. But seriously they are growing very slowly so I have a few hairs that I really want to pluck but have to leave them because eventually it will grow, but it is the funniest thing!!!) Personally I think even if your eyebrows are a little different than each other, it shows uniqueness, you arent "perfect", you are who you are and that is wayyyy better than perfect! I have learned to not change myself too much for the sake of others. You are beautiful, dont change it for others
(ps. believe me I am very self-concious of myself, like I know my eyebrows are hideous right now and I have a few zits but I just try to focus on something else, because chances are most people arent even going to really notice
if they do then that is their problem
)

Yes they are different. You don't want to be symmetrical right? I like they look perfect.

Honestly it's not noticeable. They do look nice. But I hate my eye brows too...I think they aren't even...I hope mine are as unnoticeable as yours.

Umm, they look great!!! I think the more you look at something you class as an imperfection, the worse it gets in your mind!

I looked at the picture for a long time trying to figure out what the problem was. I wish my eyebrows would do that. But mine don't. They refuse any attempt to shape them. I tweeze errant eyebrow hairs to keep them from being too bushy but other than that, mine grow the way they grow.

I agree with what another poster said. Love me love my eyebrows.

I also think your eyebrows look fine!
I get mine waxed every 7-8 weeks or so; luckily the lady who waxes my brows does a good job. I've told anyone who waxes my brows that I do not pencil them in and like the natural shape but not thin! I've seen some women do and it looks like they've taken a sharpie marker across their brows.

Sometimes I think I have bushy man-like eyebrows.

Wanna trade?



I think yours are shaped very nice! I've always wanted darker eyebrows too, mine are way too light and from a distance sometimes it looks like I don't even have any!!

Sheesh... good thing they've already talked you down, or I was going to have to whomp you upside the head!
Haven't you ever done that trick where you fold a photo in half and hold it up to a mirror so you see a perfectly symmetrical face? it looks completely unnatural!

You're perfect, drat ya. Enjoy it!

Even my husband says they look fine. But then he doesn't understand why women obssess over their eyebrows in the first place.

I think they look fine as well! About ten years ago, I spent a year getting my brows waxed by a very good stylist. I started plucking anything that grew back after a while using some expensive (but worth it)Tweezerman tweezers and have managed to retain the exact same shape. If you ask several people where they go, you may be able to find a good stylist to wax them at first and then care of plucking them yourself later. I had to go through three stylists before I found one that gave me the exact brows I wanted.

At least you have visible eyebrows (and they look good to me)! Mine are so damn light that I look like a cancer patient unless I draw them darker (dying doesn't work for some reason)..and as you can assume, the result isn't good.
