Escalators And Eyebrows

Random I know!
Eyebrows: I had my eyebrows done today and
the woman took off way too much! I now
look like I have been penciled. I also
look asymmetrical as one eyebrow is
thicker and more normal looking than the
other. It is quite annoying. I look in the
mirror and am annoyed. I just can't let it
go!! It just ticks me off. I have never
had this happen before. I just hope it
grows back the same as it was before!
Anyone experience something similar and
ended up with normal looking eyebrows
later?? Please say yes. Annoyances!
The same person did my hair yesterday and
parts ended up being really white not
blond. She redid it today and it looks a
little better. My son told me that it
looks better. He told me yesterday that it
looks silly. He was right. It did look
silly!! I believe pregnancy hormones
really played a role in her having a
difficult time coloring my hair. Even when
she used a neutral based tint, my hair
would turn red. The same thing happened
the last time I got it done about three
months ago...it turned reddish but I
didn't have it corrected. It has to be a
pregnancy thing.
Escalators: I was trying to go down a
pretty big escalator with my son and
practically lost balance at the top. I got
off and quickly pulled him off. I
attempted one more time and just couldn't
do it. My husband was laughing a bit
because I was literally freaked out about
going down an escalator. What a freak! My
poor child had to see me basically freak
out on an escalator. It was truly
embarrassing. I could barely go down the
escalator alone. I was ready to take an
elevator. My balance is "officially" off.
I met a friend today for lunch and she
noted how big I look. A lot of people
think that I am around 36 weeks.
My hubby will take pictures later today
after my much needed nap that I am going
to attempt to take.

dont feel bad about the escalator thing
i hate escalators and elevators with a
passion, it may have somthing to do with
me being clostraphobic and afraid of
heights, im also afraid of regular stairs
but they are better then moving ones lol
it makes trying to get to a different
level of a building interesting though, my
mum laughs at me constantly for it

the first time (and almost my last!) i got
my eyebrows waxed i went to a place in the
mall. i'd been along with my friend when
she went to a salon for a wax and they
always just leaned her back over one of
the shampoo sinks and they were done in
like 3 minutes. this place had a special
room with a bed/table thing, i'm surprised
it didn't have restraints on it. a tiny
old asian woman brought me back there and
she barely spoke english, she waxed and
tweezed and plucked for what seemed like
30 minutes and the whole time she wouldn't
let me get up and i couldn't see what was
going on. i was convinced she was getting
every last hair! she finally gave me a
mirror and i almost burst into tears, my
eyebrows were so thin they were
practically gone. oh, and then she says
"you come in ugly, i make you look
beautiful". i was too scared not to tip
her!
i ended up getting used to them and
looking back at pictures they weren't as
bad as i first though. i just let them
grow back and kind of kept up with
tweezing so they wouldn't look messy.
oh, and i have a really hard time getting
on escalators too! it takes me a few times
and some serious hesitation before i can
step on.

i got my eyebrows waxed and they messed it
up every time. they were always uneven and
badly shapen. then i discovered threading!
what a difference. they look so good now,
and with threading it is more accurate as
they can get individual hairs unlike
waxing big chunks off. its also sleeker
looking than waxing. then i also read in a
mag that celebs get threaded rather than
waxed because it looks more natural.

Is threading less painful than waxing?
I've had my eyebrows waxed once and
I was waiting for the blood to pour down
my face.

threading isn't at all painfull and it's
so beautifully done. waxing by the way is
horrible for the delicate skin on the
browbone, it will give you wrinkles
earlier.

first let me say that i hate hate hate
Escalators, i saw a little boys shoe lace
get caught in one...and that was it for
me. He was fine but he almost lost his
shoe in that. he just slipped out of it
and then his father pulled the shoe out.
it's was crazy scary for me...i started
crying...and the little guy was laughing.
i went to have my eyes waxed when i was
preggers and they wouldn't do them...so i
was under the impression you couldnt' have
them done during pregnancy...i guess it's
just the prefference of the place that i
went to?!
i would wrather twease!

to be honest....i think threading is
worse. but to me its so worth it. i think
groomed brows frame the face, and can
really open up the eyes if they are done
correctly. i feel really unpretty when my
brows arent done. i dont know maybe im
weird.

Really?  What
does threading involve, exactly? I'm not
sure that .i've heard of it.
I know what you mean. I hate going out
when my eyebrows aren't plucked. I feel
like people are saying "wow, look at those
chia pets on her face!"

its an indian/middle eastern (?) cultural
thing. they take thread and they sort of
roll it on the skin, its hard to
explain...and the thread pulls out all the
hairs, even the tiny ones that tweezers
always seem to miss. its pretty neat.

I naturally have such ugly, bushy
eyebrows!! I don't have a lot of hair on
my head but hair just seems to grow like
weeds other places! Not fair. It's good to
get my eyebrows done when they are done
well. I should try threading. I have never
heard of threading before. It sounds
painful! It's good to hear that some of
you that have had bad eye wax experiences
do get your eyebrows back. I have hope.

weird!
Karin: my eyebrows can get bushy too  I hate them.
my eyebrows didn't look weird after I got
them waxed, but the area was bright
red that entire day. I had to work
that afternoon too. I
said "never again" and I stuck with it!

Threading sounds strange but I think you
convinced me to try it....when I get
eyebrows back. I just need to find a
threader!!
Thank you

threading is the coolest thing to watch
but i personally think its more painful
then waxing.. its like an art though...
no worries karin.. my eyebrows got
butchered too and now it looks like im
missing half of one.. not to mention i
went and got my hair cut and she gave
me...gasp bangs!! ahh not cute ones but
super super short ones..needless to say
ive been wearing headbands lately praying
theyll grow before bree gets here..
nothing worse then having your hair jacked
up when you already feel like crap about
the rest of your body ...errrrrr hormones!
