I know styles change over the years, but what is with the eyebrows lately?

[Arkansas Granny]

Some of the young women I've seen lately seem to be sporting uni-brows.

Am I entering old fogey territory?

[underpants]

1. And the Brezhnevs

I’ve always been a stickler about eyebrows

[KarenS]

2. old fogey here too,,,,

and before my hair was grey/white,,, I was a blonde,,,, I was and still appreciate minimalism in the eyebrow category,,,,,
but I am beyond caring about style and go with comfort

[Arkansas Granny]

6. Blonde here, as well. Without some augmentation my eyebrows are mostly invisible.

3. We had ugly ass wing hair in the 70's. I think it is ugly. I was thinking just this last night.

I have been watching a couple new series. Ginny & Peach. The Air Attendant. And one other. I have been looking at these eyebrows a lot lately. It seemed to have started a couple years ago and they are getting more and more bold. It is something.

Meh, girls/women are having fun with them. It too shall pass.

The inspiration of the term “moon shot.”

10. Bill James once said that Wally Moon was the only MLB player...

...with more advanced degrees than eyebrows...

[rsdsharp]

11. And he was an "actor."

A couple of weeks ago I was watching an old Wagon Train episode (come to think of it, there are no new Wagon Train episodes). Near the end, a guy briefly appeared playing a sheriff. I looked at my wife and said “That guy looks like Wally Moon.” She had never heard of him, but the credits confirmed it was Wally.

5. I never hear a word these people are saying because I'm staring.

What about the ones that look like skinny, over
exaggerated boomerangs.

8. Lately (last 10 years), my eyebrows have changed....

I get these crazy white hairs that grow at 3x the rest. I trim weekly now.

[yellowdogintexas]

17. I have those too. Mutants . Are yours stiff and wirey? Mine are.

I used to have dark eyebrows with great arches; I was approaching unibrow status, until my hair stylist started waxing the area between them on a regular basis. Over time, that area did not fill back in as frequently or as thickly which was nice since it did away with the unibrow problem

Now I have InVisiBrows almost. Between the fading color and the mutant white hairs they don't show up very well. I use a small angled brow brush and go over them with a soft brown eyeshadow to color them enough that they will show up. At least these softer browns keep them from looking fake.

I guess they are fading and getting whiter along with the hair on my head (which used to be dark dark brown.)

My daughter is a tattoo artist; at one point she was going to get cosmetic tattoo training so she could do eyebrows, eyeliner and medical tattooing for women after breast reconstruction. She even had a plan for exactly how she was going to fix up my eyebrows. Unfortunately she was not able to work out getting the training.

18. Unfortunate for your daughter....if she wants it, keep trying!

Those crazy bastards are stiff and wirey and long. Sometimes, I go finger hunting and if I find one ****finger pluck!****. Then I admire the length and girth before dumping in the ashtray.

[Chainfire]

12. I have the Einstein version of eyebrows, the older I get the wilder they get.

I am even starting to grow eyebrows on the tops of my ears. I guess when it quits growing on the top of the head it has to find somewhere to go.

20. Something like these ?

A younger version https://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/07/us/politics/jim-wright-house-speaker-who-resigned-amid-ethics-charges-dies-at-92.html

My daughter used to call him "Mr Eyebrows" We first met him when she was 7 years old, at our church.
He was a wonderful and delightful man.

13. Frida Kahlo?

[jmowreader]

14. Call them COVID brows

If you can’t get them waxed they’re going to do whatever you want.

[sinkingfeeling]

15. I had to look up what eyebrow threading was.

[Irish_Dem]

16. With mask wearing for a year, eyes and eyebrows are the only face parts that people see.

So young women have to do something dramatic and flashy?

[Skittles]

19. BJ: He (Hotlip's husband) has one eyebrow

Hawkeye: Over which eye?

BJ: "Both"

21. Greek women liked the unibrow thing. (EDITED change from Romans to Greeks)

The Female Unibrow Is Back
Credit to the women wearing unibrows with pride, when it’s so much more acceptable to pull and pluck.

.... The female unibrow was similarly revered in Ancient Greece. As Helena Jenkinson, a resident physician at the University of Texas, writes in medical journal JAMA Dermatology, women naturally lacking one would fill in the space using kohl or soot. Some Greek women used dyed goats hair to create fake unibrows, affixing them with tree resin, Victoria Sherrow documents in Encyclopedia of Hair: A Cultural History. Other ancient cultures also used natural resources to make eyebrows appear thicker and conjoined, like the Babylonians (antimony) and the Celts (berry juice). ....

22. I'm finally in fashion! LOL!

23. Well, who could forget Andy Rooney's eyebrows??

Oh, my! If you want some entertainment, try browsing Pinterest or YouTube for tutorials on drawing on any kind of eyebrow you want, Ladies. (Men, too, if you need to fix up your original brows.) Joan Crawford’s got nothing on some of these folks. She IS inspiration for sure.
