            They probably have a method but I cant recommend using a match for ear hair. Made a cool sound though

          That take is not-so-hot. It should just be part of the deal. If I don’t trim my eyebrows regularly, there is inevitably some wild ones that really take off. Once I can start annoyingly detecting my eyeglass frames with them, it’s definitely time for a trim.

    First time I went to my last barber, he was almost done cutting my hair and said “do you want me to trim your eyebrows?”

    I said, “hmm, no, I think they’re alright.”

    He stared for a couple seconds. Then said, “…Imma trim them.” And that’s how I got my first eyebrow trim.

      At the barbershop I went to regularly, the women barbers would ask if I wanted my eyebrows trimmed and I always declined. One visit a guy cuts my hair and trims them without asking. What the he’ll was I thinking? I no longer look like the Winter Warlock

      I stopped needing regular haircuts almost a decade ago

      What does this mean? Did your hair stop growing or did you just adopt a job/lifestyle where you don’t care how long or uneven it is?

            Perhaps, but in my mind a haircut is a service you pay for. You go somewhere for a haircut, you cut your hair at home.

          Gotcha. Also, I didn’t answer your question. Yes, I groom my eyebrows. If I didn’t they’d grow into a single overly bushy unibrow.

            Makes sense. Outside of people who get unibrows, it really would not have been typical for guys to do eyebrow maintenance when I was growing up. Not sure if that’s changed now…younger guys seem more into fashion and grooming these days in general.

              It wasn’t for me either growing up, but good grooming has many benefits both personally and professionally. I look back on some old pictures wish I did more earlier.

    I remember when I was a beginner old person, I was getting a haircut from a guy (a rarity at the barbershop I go to), and he asked me if I wanted to trim up my eyebrows.

    I was a little confused, because I thought that was something like a spa treatment, and I was worried he wanted to overdo me and I’d have like, that drawn-on eyebrows style. “I dunno, do I need it?”

    “It’s just grooming, dude.” He said. That always stuck with me. It is just grooming, dude.

      Just grooming. That’s good advice. We old bastards should trim everything. I didn’t realize I had a wired chest patch that would stick out of my t-shirt. Once my wife pointed it out I look way less stupid.

      Mine, too, and when he doesn’t I ask him to do it. Literally shaves ten years off my face.

    Daily shave? No, I’m a man, I have a big fucking bushy beard. Shaving would get me thrown out of the tacticalbeardownersclub. 🧔‍♀️

      What’s tactical about your beard? Are you hiding a swiss army chin full of knives or something?

    I trim my nose and ear hair, my wife plucks the big ones on my ears, but I do not touch my big beautiful bushy eyebrows. I have eyebrow one hair so long I’ve named it.

    My entire body except for my crotch is in the red circle. And my eyebrows? Sometimes I like to brush them up so they look even more bushy

    I don’t cut my hair (hate it being touched by other people), pluck my eyebrows every week or so to prevent a unibrow, and shave my face once or twice a week (when I have something on or going into the office). My hairline is fine for now but as I get older I’ll probably end up shaving it all off and going bald

      You must be young. Trust me, as you age hair starts creeping out of places you wouldn’t expect and your eyebrows attempt to devour your face.

      You reach a certain age and then, one day, BAM. Some crazy thick-ass course hair 2 inches long comes sticking outta your face. 3 days later, it finds a friend. Then another.

      You forget about it and. 3 months later you look like you’re dad and his dad, and have no idea how it happened.

      For some people, it is. I only shave a tiny portion to make my features look a bit more pleasing but I don’t reshape.
