I think I was a freshman in college? My pictures from high school are pretty scary!
My girls have thick brows!

Oh lord. Middle school. I nearly plucked them to death. They've never recovered, poor things.

14. My mom took me to get my first eyebrow wax! I had crazy eyebrows before that!

I tried in middle school and over-plucked them so bad. I got the hang of it in high school and it became just maintenance of stray hairs.

14? They were too thin, but they've recovered. My HS self would be shocked at my thick brows.

My mom had to FORCE me to pluck in MS and HS. It wasn't until I went away to college that I did it for myself. I remember her forcing me to sit on the floor so she could pluck them, and after every pluck I made a whole big dramatic scene, so it took an hour... haha

@autumnlove: Me too. Started in college but really, someone needed to have a conversation with me about it in high school.

I don't pluck, but wax. I started waxing at 18 years old when I got highlights for the first time. I had a roommate who loved to pluck her eyebrows. It grossed me out since I hate the act of plucking.

Somewhere around 22! I didn't even realize it was a thing until then.

Never hahaha, I have never done anything to my eyebrows. DD seems to have her dad's brows though so they might need some work.

In high school my hair dresser asked of I wanted her to wax them, that was the first time they'd been done.

When I was in high school (15? 16?). I had really thick brows until then.
One day I was home sick from school with the flu. I was watching TV in my mom's bed, and so when I got up to pee I used her bathroom. Something made me reach for her tweezers and go to work on my brows, and I was pleasantly surprised with the results. I haven't looked back since.

I still don't. I think I just don't care! Maybe I would if my brows were really bad? Or maybe they are and people just don't tell me? haha
@plantains: glad I'm not the only one!
I really just can't be bothered with beauty maintenance!

@plantains: & @locavore_mama: I'm glad I'm not the only one who has never done them!

I think in Jr High? I'm pretty sure I butchered them the first time. Although I didn't remember that until just now LOL blocked memories!

Not soon enough! 23 i started to pluck a little to clean them up, then maybe 5 years ago at 28 I started to shape them better.

My mom taught me how when I was 10. I had some pretty awful eyebrows!
When I was 14 my sister and cousin always had me do theirs because I became a pro at it.
I never plucked them too thin, because that would honestly be a lot of work for me. Lol

I know I got them waxed for the first time before my cousin's bat mitzvah, so when I was 15 (and I've only had them waxed like 3 times since then, all in the lead up to my wedding more than 10 years after that, haha). But I probably plucked a little before then.

@2PeasinaPod: @locavore_mama: I don't do anything to them, just let them be. They seem fine to me!
