I don't. I happen to be one of those unfortunate people who only have something like 3 pcs. of hair on each of my eyebrows. On top of that, my real eyebrows were slanting or sloping down so they don't look nice I think. I had my eyebrows tattooed many years back and even had a retouch a couple of years ago. But still, the tattooed eyebrows would, after some time, sort of fade so now I am using a pencil to draw my eyebrows. Otherwise, I'd look funny without them. I envy those who have thick eyebrows. Do you have thick natural eyebrows? Or do you also use a pencil to make your eyebrows?

I have thick natural eyebrows so I don't really need to do anything about it except for the occasional trimming or threading. However, there are times when I would like them to be extra dark so I would then apply some eyebrow powder - but only a little bit most especially at night.
I don't know about tattooing but I think if it's in the same case with yours, I would also opt for one. But I'm afraid of the pain though.
Have a great mylot experience ahead!

Whew!
I could remember a friend of mine who had her eye tattoed (permanent eyeliner) she said that the pain was intolerable that she refused to have the other eye done! hahahaha.. It wasn't only after her daughter and the tattoo artist made her rest for a while and took painkillers that they continued. But she swore never to ever do that again! hahaha..
Whew!!

Hello! I hane natural eye brows and even though they are well-shaped I need to pull out some hair every week to retain the shape. I don't use eye-brow pencil, only occasionally if I have to go to a party and it fits my make up.
Even though I am happy for my eye brows, they come with some disadvantages!
I have a lot of body hair as well, at my legs and bikini area so I have to do waxing every 20-30 days.

Same here! I am not gifted with very thick eyebrows but I think I have enough that I have to also resort to plucking just to re-shape them and groom them. Then just to create an illusion of fuller eyebrows, I used an eyebrow pencil that is a shade lighter than my hair but only when needed.

Yes I do have thick natural eyebrows but I do pluck it to have a little shape on my eyes. Since its too thick I have to lessen it.

Hi cutie! i usually have thick natural eyebrows and i really love it coz it is naturally nice in curve, many of my friends envy me on having it. I sometimes shave it slightly on the tip just to make my curve more emphasized.

HI Cutie,
I do have thick eyebrows, I just pluck some of it to keep it clean looking. I avoid removing too much eye brows because thin eyebrows can make one look old. I'm also afraid that if I make it too thin I would have a hard time growing it again when I grow older. I do still use some eyebrow pencil to give it some shape because I don't have a beautifully shaped eyebrows.

Yes, I have those what you call "thick, natural brows" and I still use a brown liner to shape them and enhance it. Well, i usually dye them together with my hair too!
There is this new procedure where they would put hair implant in your brows and that makes it all the more natural and beautiful. You might want to research on that and see if your the nearest salon offers that.

I have never had much in the way of eyebrows and I have simply used an eyebrow pencil. I have never heard of false eyebrows, false eyelashes were hard enough to get on properly, putting a nicely arched eyebrow into place must be a terrible fiddle.
I use a brown pencil rather than a black one which looks rather harsh. I also put a little cream on my face first and that helps me make a thinner line. If it looks dark I dab it with a tissue and then pat it with some powder.
It must be worse to have really thick eyebrows and painful to go through the necessary plucking.

Hi! Thanks for sharing your story. I have some friends who are like you. Funny thing is, a few of them actually had thick original eyebrows, but for some unfathomable reason they shaved everything off, but then they went to the beauty salon and had fake eyebrows penciled in 
I have thick original eyebrows myself which I like. But I do trim them and make them less bushy. A girl's gotta indulge to her vanity a little bit
