NO! I am OBSESSED with eyebrows! My eyebrows aren't thick, but they aren't thin either, and I'm lucky enough to have a pretty high natural arch, so I only have to pluck strays. However, I do have to stop myself from going overboard. It's so easy once you start you think "a little more on this side, now a little more on that side" and it just becomes never ending, then you end up with too thin, too short brows lol.

My eyebrows were too thin for awhile, and it took a bad wax job for me to see that. She literally scalped my eyebrows off lol. While they were growing back (about 2 months!) I wouldn't let myself touch them at all. Only my unibrow lol. After they grew out I realized how much better they looked natural & cleaned up instead of a forced shape and too thin. lol

eyebrows make or break a look so don't feel bad for obsessing over them.

I don't really worry but I always think mine can look better. Mine were really terrible so I didn't touch them for like 3 months...um torture. I just ignored them and went to this lady in the Tyler mall (since you know Riverside I mentioned it

) and she shaped them beautifully and that's how I've kept them ever since. Actually she has done the brows of almost everyone in my family haha. She's good!

If anyone wants to know her name is Mimi and she works inside Carltons.

MAN, sometimes I think I pay attention to eyebrows too much too. Whenever there's a guy, instead of thinking like "Oh, his eyes!" or "His physique!", I think "Wow, his eyebrows! They're so strong!" Hahah.

Hahaha I didnt think anyone thought about eyebrows as much as I do. I love them to death, especially my own haha. I want mine to be fatter too! I told my boyfriend that the other day. Instead I just brush them up and fill them in a little more. I really do have a an eyebrow fetish.

I find it annoying to have mine grow out too. I just get rid of the the middle ones and the extreme outer ones. They grow really fast, which is a big help in being able to shape them.

I obsess too. Mine are very dark, so if I tweeze a few too many hairs I look like I am raising one of my eyebrows all the time. So attractive.

Good luck. BTW, I have seen your eyebrows and they look really nice, they suit your face.

I'm always worried about mine! I think I'm obsessed. They are a good shape but very sparse. I'm always afraid that I will over do it when filling them in and that they won't look natural. I'm rarely happy with how they come out but the other day someone gave me a compliment on them so I must be doing something right! I hope that I come back in my next life with some nice, fat brows that don't need filling in hehe.

I worry about mine all the time too! If I didn't pluck them, they would literally connect with my hair line. As bad as it is, I pluck at least a hair or two every day.

Right now, they are a little too thin, but when I fill them in, they look almost normal sized. lol

I am constantly obsessed with my eyebrows. I overplucked at one stage and hated them. Now, I am growing them in... which is torture and plan on getting them reshaped. I want them to be a bit thicker than they were before. They grow so quickly but not in the areas that I want them to but they are already looking so much better. I think I will leave them for about another month and then go and get them done... can't wait.

yea , I'm always obsessing over mine too. I don't like the current shape of them and I am TRYING to let them grow out but they are so dark and I can't stop plucking the stray hairs!

I obsess too! Why is it one always comes out perfect and the other one decides to freak out?? Then I try to even them out and by the time I'm done I look like Groucho Marx!!! WHY!?!?!
