Brow Wow

Hi brow, low brow, thin brow, bleach brow, uni-brow, no-brow...Which do you prefer? The trend on the runways (again) is the shape of the eyebrow.  Now, personally, I have had "bushy" eyebrows before (which was once all the rage), and I have had brows arched to the heavens...but I have never had "zero" brows! No brows what-so-ever is what rocks the catwalk now! I can't believe that it is fashionable to look like the Bride of Frankenstein, but apparently this look is very haute coutour!  Pat McGrath (I am her stalker) reinvented this look from the 1970's for the Spring 2009 shows and every one *gulp* loved it! Fashion is all about risks, but I don't know if I can take a razor to my face (especially if I don't have to)! But guess what...you don't have to! Many of the models on the runway use something like molding clay to mask their brows (hey, we do it in the Theater all the time) or they put heavy makeup on them.   But how long will this trend stay? Who knows...but for now it is rocking the runways!

  1. Never a good look. The runways are notorious for making us simple humans believe the ridiculous is ok. Ha. I had a treacherous day at the waxing salon, and trust me, I was way too close to having no brows. It was devasting and not to mention hideous.
