Aging eyebrows — 10 Comments

  1. When I was a boy I was hit in the face with a baseball, and it drove my glasses frames right into my right eyebrow. After the shaving and stitches and all, that eyebrow grew back looking like it belonged on Leonid Brezhnev, whereas the left one is pretty normal. I’ve been trimming that dratted eyebrow for decades.

  2. When I get my haircut, an eyebrow trim is a necessity. The hair grows much faster there than it does on my head. The ears and nose receive more than a small amount of attention as well. What is it about old age and vigorous hair growth – in all the wrong places? It’s a puzzle.

  3. Sorry but as the 2 other poster have pointed out this is a more pressing problem for men. After all sparse brows can be filled in with judicious use of eye brow pencil for a lady.
    I have to point out to my hubby that he needs an eyebrow trim when they begin to leave the straight path and a few individual hairs choose to droop over, must cut those they look so wayward. Then nose hairs show up but mercifully those are more rare. The barber takes care of the ear business. Mother nature why is all this going on, all the while hair at the top of the head where it is most attractive is disappearing?
    At least we are living long enough to experience these changes, think of the fellow travelers we have lost!

  4. I’ve been using dark eyeshadow on my brows for years…pretty much just for special occasions. Day-to-day, I just brush over them to make sure they’re all in the right direction. I’ve worn mascara since I was 12 years old, but as of April, gave that up, except for special occasions, because of an minor eye infection (not related to the mascara according to the eye doctor). But with eyes, I’m not willing to risk problems.

  5. I wear glasses, and trim my eyebrows, but still they leave oil on the lenses. Driving across North Dakota, crevices in front fill up with grasshoppers–and look like eyebrows.
