Wait.... does anyone (Except those who paint eyebrows) actually think painted eyebrows look good? I've never met anyone who thinks it looks good on women.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 57 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some women lost most of their eyebrow hair and the painted ones actually look better than without.

Then there are others who paint to make their brows appear fuller, and when well done you don't notice they are painted.

So yeah in some cases people who don't paint their eyebrows can appreciate painted eyebrows on others.

This whole wiki is excellent. So many well written pages on logic, philosophy, rhetoric, and history.

Have you asked the women with the painted eyebrows? They probably like it. Not all things people do with their appearance are to appeal to others.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

No. I do not walk up to random people and ask them personal questions out of nowhere. I just always assume that if they didn't think it looked good, they wouldn't do it.

Not all

But most are, even uf you ignore it.

[–] ElectricMeow@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I think there are certain people who can do certain looks that look good with painted eyebrows, as long as it’s very high quality. I don’t see it often.

because you can doesn't mean that you should

Womens painted eyebrows looks ugly and so does this.

At least we are away from the trend of massive silicon lips now right? Right?

It's all ridiculous. Women looks awesome without any of this shit, and they look worse with it.

How dare think that they do it for you... They do it for themselvs /s

[–] riodoro1@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Some of them truly spend most of the day looking at their own image on their phone screen, so those might be doing it for themselves.

What's the reverse of a fish though?

A duck? A dolphin?

One of my dogs really doesn't like ducks, so I'll stay with fish. He'd be down for a fishing trip.

[–] Franzia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Sounds fun and educational. Make up can easily age your appearance, and its known about, but few can describe why and how to avoid it. Even fewer know how to play into it, which is also fucking useful but to fewer people.

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 38 points 1 year ago

I don't like how either of those things look but I support your right to do it

aw shit, story time. i knew a homie that like never cut his beard or styled without his barber. his beard wasnt super full.... one day he walked in with this and apparently his barber used semi perm dye.... the guys rode him so hard (idgaf but sometimes men are asses)... the next day it was gone.

i often wonder how hard he had to scrub........

Comment 2: oh no, what if this became a thing. What if you looked ridiculous with real facial hair or none. Man social norms can be screwed up. I’m scared now
