    Girls, could you advise me on eyebrows......?
    So would say Im a pretty low maintenance guy but a couple of friends asked me if I shave my eyebrows which I don't but I think they have always been patchy as shown in photo. They seem to be thick on the inside but patchy elsewhere. How should I sort them out or should I just leave them? Im guessing shaping them would look pretty feminine but not sure really what to do. Gracias!

    They look fine, you don't need to do anything to them.
    However if you really don't like the patches, you could fill them in lightly with an eyebrow pencil or shadow, but make sure you buy one close to your actual eyebrow colour.

    if you want them thicker in certain areas, just pluck A FEW (seriously only like 1 or 2) hairs in that space every few weeks and they will grow thicker also don't shape them they're fine

    I think it's fine the way it is.

    But I'm not the sampled population that you wanted :ninja:

    You could probably tidy them up a little bit but I've seen way worse. You have nice eyes by the way

    You don't really need to do anything but your could get them tinted slightly, it's more likely that the bits that looks like it has no hair actually has tiny very light ones which is why you don't see them. If you went to a highly trained beautician and spoke to them about it they'd be able to help. Be sure to ask about their experience with mens eyebrows beforehand though.

    You wouldn't look like a drag haha, just very lightly fill in the patches. You could go to a beauty salon and ask them to professionally do it for you and then learn how they do it so you can do it for yourself.

    cheers, tinted? Does that mean dyed? I might have to pluck up the courage (pun intended,lol) to pluck them a bit. I did once before but didn't know what shape they should be, just did the stray ones

    They look ok to be honest, the main thing is not to have a monobrow - that's a big no no! I would maybe tidy up underneath, you can still have manly looking eyebrows when they're tidied up.

    Guys actually worry about their eyebrows? Oh dear. There's nothing wrong with them, though there is something wrong with using make-up!

    Yeah tinted is dyed, a beautician would be your best bet. They'll know what will look good and what won't. They may tidy them up a bit too but nothing major, you shouldn't worry.

    Eyebrows look fine to me, don't pluck them! I've seen guys who pluck it and went on to the stage where do are now over plucking it and it looks horrendous!
