Maintenance

I went in the other night for my bi-weekly pedicure and while there opted to go ahead and get my brows waxed. I don't know if I've previously mentioned it, but I hate having to maintain my brows.



I always have and I always will. When I was in junior high/high school/college, my sister would chase after me with tweezers and threaten to sit on my chest and pluck my brows. Mind you, she had perfectly manicured brows (and fingernails for that matter, but that is a different story) and she only wanted to best for me.

I, however, often was able to deflect her and the tweezers and would just suffer through having full-figured eyebrows. After I grew up, my gay friend John convinced me to get the brows waxed, since he was doing it regularly. Ever since that first time I'm hooked on the waxing. Even if it hurts like all get out, I'm willing to do it. I also think that each time I do it that this is the time that I'm actually going to do the maintenance and keep up with it. Surprisingly, I don't. I may go home and keep a look out for stray hairs for a week so, but then I get bored with it and the tweezing hurts so I stop. Next thing you know, I have a single eyebrow and they are starting to run down my face onto my cheeks. That is when I know it is time to let the ladies at the nail place torture me....Maybe this time I'll keep up with the maintenance, although I wouldn't count on it.

In my face reading class, they stated eyebrows can tell more about a person than any other feature including eyes.
