Brows are weirdly… intimate, aren’t they?
For two strips of hair that sit above your eyes and do not a lot, they wield an uncomfortable amount of power over us depending on how they look.
So we wax them, pluck them, thread them, shave them, bleach them and tattoo them.
We also tint them, which anyone who’s ever done so will know is a risky and extremely emotional journey of epic proportions.
Because, as the ancient proverb goes, no one can screw up your life faster than your brow lady.
Immediately after.
1. They’re dark.
2. They’re REALLY DARK.
3. WHAT HAVE I DONE?
4. Why is the beautician smiling? Do they think this is… funny?

5. Will they stay like this... forever?
6. Why do I keep doing this to my eyebrows? Why can't I love them the way they are?
7. I knew I should've said something about how long to leave the tint on but I didn't want it to seem like I know how to do the beautician's job better than they do. But obviously I do, because otherwise we wouldn't be in this situation.
8. No, they don't look dark because they're wet. I know my brows aren't wet.
9. Yes, they're meant to be sisters. But more identical twin sisters rather than estranged half-step sisters.
10. It makes no difference the shape is so spot on. I now feel awful about this entire experience.
11. Do I now have to pay for these?
12. See you six weeks.
13. Actually, I don't know when I'll see you again. Maybe never, not sure yet.

The important thing is to have a beauty therapist that you trust completely. I know if I asked mine to tint my eyebrows black they'd laugh at me and refuse.
I've seen some shockers lately, thanks to this trend of colouring your eyebrows right in and having straight line edges. Some of them look like they've got the thick tip permanent marker out.
