Discuss.

Does your man get his eyebrows done?
Are his more groomed than yours?
Do you wish he would if he doesn't already?

Overall, how much time do your men spend grooming themselves?

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

Fh has bushy eyebrows, but not ridiculously so. Before he met me, he didn't do anything to them.

I, however am an eyebrow NAZI, I tweeze them all the time and they are very groomed. People comment on them, it's a sick obssesive habit I have.

So, needless to say...I tweeze his brows. He screams everytime I do, but I do it anyway. Just to keep them neat looking, they're still man-brows.

Other than that, he has decent hygeine, showers everyday and all that.

hell no.

I don't like when men groom themselves.

I have a pretty traditional sense of 'manly' and 'womanly'.

No to manicures, no to pedicures, no to waxing, no to going to a 'hair stylist', no to tanning.

As long as hygiene is decent, I'm happy. Save for the three days we went white water rafting and camping - he showers daily - and that's all I need..

I see men with waxed eyebrows and immediately think high maintenance. To me, a high maintenance man is worse than a woman with PMS.

yup i pretty much agree

i swear i plucked like three hairs from the middle of DH's eyebrows ten years ago and since then - nothing, and they look great!

his first manicure/pedicure was for the wedding/honeymoon and most likely, his LAST!

IM ACtually trying to convince fh to get a manicure for the wedding and he said NO he refuses to do it. I think im going to have to do it for him myself, i just want to cut those cuticles, cuticles drive me insane

What would I do without you?

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

My FH doesn't, but he happens to have nice eyebrows, IMO.

I wouldn't mind if he did, or for those that do, but like some of the othe rgirls mentioned, they shouldn't look more done than mine.

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

I think its fine. My FH has to have his done just about every two weeks or else they get out of control, he hates the fact that he has to get them done, but he would have unibrow if he didn't do it.

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

My FH has great shape to his natural brow so I help him 'clean them up' every few weeks. I joke with him that they look better than mine because I get to talking and forget to have mine done when I get my nails done

He gets his hands dipped in parafin every other week but that is because the skin just gets so dry and cracked from his job.

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

As long as I can't tell you get your eyebrows done, I wont mind...some guys get them done and you can tell....their eyebrows look way too tapered and groomed...it makes them look effeminate IMO

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

its ok..as long as they're not overdone..i also hate when men have arched eyebrows..looks feminine to me..

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

LOL this is funny. My FH tweezes his eyebrows ...but dont tell anyone! Ha ha. He just cleans them up a little, nothing major but yes, he does have nicer eyebrows than i do!

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

It could be both weird and good grooming. There is a really thin line between the two.

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

FH happens to have really nice eyebrows...but if he didn't, I would be fine with him getting them done...I know I would have a uni if I didn't...

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

the eyebrow waxing thing kind of freaks me out unless it is done right....like for a man. I had patient once who CLEARLY had his brows done and i couldn't stop staring....if you just looked at his eyes, you'd swear it was a chick. Rich is rough on his hands (he details boats on the side) so I asked him to get a manicure and he agreed, but i had to go with him. So of course i dragged my BFFL with me and we embarassed him the whole time

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

FH has naturally tidy eyebrows but I know he would never go anywhere to have them groomed if he needed it.
I don't think it's a big deal -- my answer's 'why not?'

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

I told DH I would kill him in his sleep if he started getting his eyebrows done. Im just not a fan of it at all.

bluekat16 Posted: Apr 22, 2008 09:14 AM

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

MY FH doesn't, I trim them up for him.

I think men have to be careful when getting their eyebrows done so that they don't look 'done'. I hate it when I can visibily tell that a man has had his eyebrows done....they just look weird to me.

Re: Your thoughts on men getting their eyebrows done....

my FH is blonde so he has no need to do this lol However I think that if a guy has bushy brows there is nothing wrong with a little shape up...but your brows better not look more groomed than mine lol that I cant stand!
