Hah! Tom!
You certainly enjoyed penning this piece, and I most certainly enjoyed reading it!
Eyebrows, eh?
With women it's hair chins!
Yup!
Apparently, women of a certain age sprout hair chins.
I wouldn't know... :) :) ;)
Much enjoyed!

Hello Diane,
Yvonne mentioned that she didn't have to shave her legs anymore, but she does have to deal with the chin hair. What the heck do our bodies think they're doing? It's hard enough dealing with aches and pains, do we have to suffer the indignity of growing hair in strange places too? Ah well, I guess I should be happy that I'm still upright and able to move around still.
Have a blessed day gal.
Tom
Comment from Jeano
That's a lot to say about eyebrows, but it's my kind of story. Some of us know how to get the most out of something like this. I've been accused of it myself. Enjoyed your story, and I hope Tim appreciated your thoughtful suggestions. LOL!

Hello Jeano,
thanks so much for the fine review gal. I never heard back from Tim. I was really hoping that he would forward a picture to me, but he's probably afraid, rightfully so, that I would share it with everyone. You've got to be careful when you've got a pair of clippers in your hand. It's hard to stop once you get going.
Have a blessed day.
Tom

You're welcome.

This was the right way to start off my day. Something so human and real. We do, in fact, all do stupid things. Your friend could document how long it took to grow his eyebrow back. Could be a kids science project. Lol. This was a fun read, Tom. Thanks for posting. Gretchen

Hello Gretchen,
thanks so much for the exceptional rating. I should probably mention your suggestion to Tim, he might really appreciate it. I swear, the things we do. Sometimes even I am surprised by them.
Have a blessed day gal.

This story, Where's My Eyebrows?, opens up a long story of misadventures which have now made me feel better about very similar events that placed me in odd situations. Funny.

Hello Bill,
thanks so much for the great review. I guess we've all faced something out of the ordinary. It's part of the human experience, and frankly, it makes life interesting. Especially when it happens to someone else.
Have a blessed day.

Comment from BethShelby
This was quite a tale about eyebrows. A lot of women don't seem to have eyebrows are they are too light to show up so they spend a lot of time trying to color them in to look natural but I do have them grow to low or try to close the distance between them. I'm bad about picking at stray hairs. I particularly liked the part of your story where your brother painted your face to look like a lady of the night.

Hello Beth,
thanks so much for the great review. I don't know if its a nervous thing to be picking at something, or what, but it happens to everyone I believe. I know that some clippers in a person's hands is an invitation to start looking for something else to use them on. What an odd, but very interesting species we are.
Have a blessed day gal.

Well, there you go. All you wanted to know re: body hair in a nutshell.
Whatever prompted you to write of this is comedic in itself so you succeeded in writing a humorous non-fiction story.

Hi Tom,
Well, I didn't cover every kind of body hair, but enough to get the story across I guess. I didn't want to get too graphic for fear of scaring some of our more sensitive members off. I think humor is all around us, we just need to see it sometimes. Thanks so much for the great review.
Have a blessed day.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
I always love your humorous stories, Tom, and my review is not only for this one but a cumulative one for all the rest (when I haven't got a 6 spare). Eyebrows are dear to my heart because they may seem an unnecessary burden for men, but they define and frame the face so well. Sadly, I've got very little left and remain forever jealous when men boast they have too much. After all, you can always pluck and groom them to your needs while you can't do a lot with baldness except pencil them in (which looks weird) or buy some stick-on ones! Oh, but there's always the latest thing - microblading which involves tiny cuts resembling hair and then of course the dye process. All this just in case Tim's eyebrow never grows back again. Some wonderful stories here, Tom, in faultless prose! Well done! Debbie

Oh my goodness,
thanks so much Debbie. I'm so glad that you enjoyed this offering. I like to pursue humor when I can. I am curious about what Tim decided to do, and I'm really wishing he would have sent me a picture, but he knows I would have posted it, so I understand him not forwarding one. I've never heard of stick on eyebrows. I mentioned velcro ones to one of the other commenters, but that would entail having to have something permanent for the Velcro to stick to. It would be kind of neat though, especially for women. If you wanted to be a red head for a few weeks, dye your hair and just stick on some red Velcro brows. The same for brown, blonde or black. My youngest daughter had dirty blond hair, but her eyebrows were black. She opted to dye her hair black, and it's been that way for years. Whatever floats your boat I guess.
Have a blessed day gal.

I'm sure Tim wouldn't trust you with a pic! Who would?:)) No, the stick-on ones were a joke but, then, you never know...
Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Tom, your titles always draw me in, then your stories are always entertaining. I think Tim should just shave the other eyebrow so it looks intentional - hair does, after all, grow back:-)
Let us know, even if it's just in author's notes for another story, what he ended up doing. If he's as tough as you say he is, then he probably just dealt with comments by telling people to "f-off!"
Thanks for sharing.
back round? Do you mean background?

Hello Pam,
thanks so much for the delightful review. The old Tim would have done as you say, and told everyone off, but now, I'm not sure what he decided to do. If I find out, I will make a footnote of it. I know that backround is one word, but when I use it, the stupid spell check says it's wrong. I'm going to do it right from now on and to hell with spell check. Have a blessed day gal.

Comment from Wendy G
Very humorous. Poor guy - I wonder what he did about his eyebrow. It's amazing what a difference they make. I enjoyed all the anecdotes, a fun piece of writing. Well done.

Hello Wendy,
I'd like to know what he did too. I can promise you, not having any eyebrows looks really weird. My dad had really thick eyebrows. They used to remind me of a character on a kids show called Casper Camel. I have to trim mine with scissors fairly often or they will poke my eye. I should let them grow longer and save them so I can glue them to my head, it's starting to get kind of thin up there. Thanks so much for the wonderful review gal.
Have a blessed day.
Tom
Comment from Dolly'sPoems
This is a funny story and the good news is that his eyebrows will grow back. Women, however, seem to lose their eyebrows as they age and now in England they have eyebrow tattooing! It is amazing and no one need to be without eyebrows now. I enjoyed your humour here Tom, love Dolly x x x

Hello Dolly,
I thought I had seen something about eyebrow tattoos. I would think it wouldn't be as realistic as hair though. I was thinking about inventing Velcro eyebrows or little eyebrow wigs for people whose brows are too thin or non-existent. One thing is certain, if you don't have any, it looks kind of weird.
Have a blessed day gal.
