let's talk about eyebrows.



here's a picture of the 
"STANDARD STARVED BROW":


What's the deal? I'm anti-starvation. And I hate starved eyebrows. It's like what they say about a 40 yr old dude driving a sports car -- he's trying to make up for something. So when I see a girl with janky crooked brows I wonder what she's thinking when she is mercilessly pulling away those desperately needed hairs. I imagine she's no fun in the sack. She probably folds her underwear. She doesn't know how to LET LOOSE.
      Am I anti eyebrow-grooming? Of course not. But let's have a little photo session.

I call this look the "Comma Brows":
see how she thinks she's giving her eyebrows "shape"?
or this look, known as "Frida's Opposite":
see how her eyebrows START at the iris? that's a SERIOUS problem. i know quite a few ladies who get this look by taking a bic razor down the middle. not smart.

these ladies could make their faces look 100% better if they just followed BASIC PLUCK GEOMETRY:


in conclusion: don't starve your eyebrows! check out these looks. I call them the "BABE FACE":

+++++++++++

want a cheap way to start growing those starved brows back? ardel lash & brow is great. it also works perfectly to tame unruly brows.



Even though I find American Apparel to be a serious fashion DON'T, I fear I agree with ol' Dov Charney (aka creep dad)/ American Apparel's employee mandate: "Eyebrows must not be overplucked. Full eyebrows are very much encouraged." 
       I removed the bit about dying eyebrows, as I think that can totally be a fashion DO (hello Balenciaga). And I DEFINITELY think it's pretty lame to tell your employees how they can and cannot look for $8/hour.  Almost as lame as working at American Apparel. Seriously though, this will be the first (and only time) I agree with Dov.
