Brow Be Gone
So this chic with penciled-eyebrows came up to me a while ago and told me that MY eyebrows were a little too thin for the shape of my face. WHAAAA? That ladies and gentlemen, is when you need to re-assess "WHY" you have eyebrows in the first place if you insist on plucking them so thin that even a pencil-eyed girl thinks it's bizarre.But I was still in denial. I mean, really guys? Like I'm gonna pay attention to some pencil-eyed hoochie that thinks she knows about what goes well with the shape of my face! Uh-uh.
So, I went to Waco about a month ago. I spent the weekend with Camila and Cris' and the gang, AND later on in the day...Camila makes a comment about my eyesbrows in the nicest way possible. But had she not been my friend...she basically would have told me something a little less "Christian." In fact, her Christian-like words went something like this: "Hmmmmm, I hate eyes brows that are thin. I just don't like it! I like it all to be one-thick length over the whole eye...(when she realizes I shape mine the way she detests)...OH, OH, but it looks good on you Becca." lol. Hmmm, not very convincing. ;-)
Well I finally gave in and thought since I wasn't going to listen to a hoochie, I might as well listen to some hints my friends were dropping here and there in our conversations. NOT that I'm a people pleaser or anything, but I took these so-called "hints" especially to heart because my eyebrows are my pride and joy. They're the only things I hadn't screwed up. Until now, that is.
Since then I have been growing-out my bushman eyebrows. There almost like caterpillars now shadowing over my almond eyes. Just a couple of days more and I'll be able to trim them...but only a little this time.
P.S.-I have nothing against pencil-eyed hoochies. I understand that's, "how you roll," and that you've probably taken in consideration the shape of your face anyway which is why you have chosen to pencil the brows in. Nothing against it, per se. I just don't want to look like that. The shape of my face (round?) won't allow it...but you know that already.
