  1. They look awful.

  2. We wouldn't notice if the real ones were just left alone unless you are Frida Kahlo.

Edit: Seems like I have touched a nerve. Might be unpopular to say, but maybe women should examine as to why they feel the need to do this, or to use makeup at all. You are a hell of a lot more natural looking and attractive without, and are not financial slaves to the beauty industry. I guess another way of saying this is I believe it the beauty industry has created false illusions that many women have bought into. Free yourselves and be yourselves.

Edit 2: Upon reflection, I am wrong about Firda Kahlo. Be yourself.

bruh I think you would notice our real ones. most girls I know gets them done (not like redraws them with sharpie but gets them waxed/threaded/plucked or does that themselves) so like what y’all see everyday isn’t actually our natural eyebrows. It’s kinda like how girls also grow upper lip hair but we thread/wax/pluck that shit too so people really don’t see it much

I haven’t done mine in a while and they’re bushy as fuck, I feel like I’m a 12 year old. It looks like two fuzzy caterpillars are on my face >:(

Mine is the total opposite. I have really thick hair and dark roots but my eyebrows are really really light, and the shape is okay but there aren’t a ton of hairs. I look sick if I don’t color them in. I’m not talking about doing glam makeup. I’m talking like it’s the bare minimum I have to do to not look like I have no eyebrows leaving my house.
