You can if you want. But I don't recommend it.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"> </span></span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Too much bush can make you appear older than you actually are and I don't know many people who desire that quality.</span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">As I have previously discussed, research has shown that there is no harm to your eyebrows to trim them. It <i>does not</i> make them grow back faster, thicker or longer. </span><div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Trimming them is rather simple. The only trick being that you don't trim too much. A little goes a long way (unlike chocolate...a little never goes a long way.)</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">It is recommended that you trim after you have had your eyebrows shaped. Most places that shape your brows will also trim them to give them the finishing perfect look.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">1. First brush your wee puppies upwards. You can use a small hair comb or a mascara wand like these.</span></div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mt_tMMvSfGE/UA509Qp88zI/AAAAAAAAAB0/Y--1x8ETXks/s1600/trimming.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mt_tMMvSfGE/UA509Qp88zI/AAAAAAAAAB0/Y--1x8ETXks/s1600/trimming.jpg" /></span></a></div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">Then grab your scissors and softly trim the random stay and excess hairs. When trimming never trim to the line of your eyebrow. Go a millimetre or so above the line of your brow. The reason being that when you brush your brows back down into place after trimming you don't want to create any holes or sparse areas, which can happen if you trim to close the the edge of your brow.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">You can always trim a little and then brush them back down into place to see what they look like. And if you desire a little more off simply repeat the process.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">3. After you have brushed them upwards, and trimmed them, repeat the process by then brushing them downwards and trimming. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;">And bingo you have yummy trimmed groomed brows!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />

I was an unqualified 8 year old (unpaid) barber for my dad's beautiful curly locks. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Not only does my father have these delicious large curls, but a little south he has unruly massive big banger brows. Those wee puppies have a mind of their own and fly off in all directions.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Armed with a pair of scissors snipping away at the locks I once went to tackle the brows and give them a wee trim.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Now my father has a gentle soul. When I was 14 my friend & I drove his (stolen...or "borrowed without permission"...opps) truck through a butchery shop. Yep in the front door, through the counter, through the freezer and out the back door...there was meat and sausages everywhere...opps. We even made the front page of the newspaper. He wasn't very happy with me. The point however is he never told me off. He never raised his voice. I didn't get grounded. Nothing. Even when he went back to the butchery every day for the following two weeks to rebuild the butchery, he still didn't tell me off.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">All I got...I say "all" when actually it was worse than any 'tell off' was "The Look". </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Do you know what 'look' I mean?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Yes that one which say's 'I am more disappointed with you than words could ever communicate.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I haven't actually received 'The Look" very many times...actually I'm lying...I got it regularly throughout my teenage years. But those are different tales to tell.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Anyway! The reason for the above little detour is I just wanted to give you an idea that my father is most certainly not the 'tell off' type of father. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Back to cutting his hair & trimming his brows.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I leaned inwards armed with the scissors to snip away at the brows and was rather suddenly yelled at; "don't go near my bloody brows Rat!" (He calls me Rat...that is normal isn't it?). "You DON'T trim eyebrows Rat. Not ever."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">And that little datum of 'not ever do you trim' has stuck with me for years.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I have never really looked at this data and evaluated it to see if it was truth or not. Dad said it, so it was true. That was enough for me.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">But since opening Play Brow Bar where brows are all I eat & breathe daily, I've had to re-evaluated this datum I'm so dearly holding onto.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ok lets look at it...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1. This is a datum that comes from a man who got eye LASH & eye BROW extensions mixed up thinking they were the same thing (beats me what brow extensions are??)</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">2. This is a datum that comes from a man who wore the following;</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">With a little help from my own expert observation & knowledge on the subject of brows and also the ole chap Mr. Google, I have come to find out the following to be true.</span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">1. Trimming your eyebrow hairs will not encourage your hair to grow back more or faster. This is simply because you are trimming the hair particle from the outside, not from the actual follicle below your skin. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;">All the genetic information about length, thickness and color of the hair is in the root. Trimming will leave the root intact.</span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">2. Trimming aids to define and create the 'perfect brow' shape.</span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">3. Trimming your brows may make them look a little fuller, for you are cutting the hair to a blunt end.</span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So the verdict is...don't believe old men with stray fly away hairs that you must never trim.</span></div>

<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: small;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">After my last blog where I basically made anyone who has thin brows feel like bollocks...I thought it would be good practice to give some solutions to making your brows a little more bushy.</span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px;">

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Us females (and I suppose some boys out there as well) have realized that ones brows can make or break you. They are a thing of beauty and can accentuate your facial features or close your features in & add years.</span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">To obtain this, we’ve plucked, picked, shaved, threaded and waxed at our wee puppies, all pulling the eyebrow hair out from the follicle itself.</span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">And unfortunately, over time this causes the eyebrow hair to actually stop growing. It also promotes breakage and loss of existent hair.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">But never fear there is actually something you can do about your wee hairless puppies to stimulate some growth back into them!</span></span></div>

There is a lot of scientific guff on how and why it works...but to break it down for you...it is an essential oil (which simply means that it is derived from a plant and not had stuff done to it nor is it chemically derived) that promotes hair growth by stimulating the hair follicles.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Apply the castor oil (you can get it from a chemist/drug store - it should be under $20) to your whole eyebrow area nightly. Wash it off with warm water & a cotton pad in the morning.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">During the day you want to keep your eyebrows and surrounding skin nice and moist. Moist skin provides opportunity for optimum hair growth on the facial region. A moisturizer containing vitamin E or C is a jolly good choice (I personally use the Body Shop Vit E Day Cream - but that is just me).</span></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px Helvetica; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">You could also if you are really keen grab some vitamin E oil capsules (the ones you would normally take orally) from your chemist/drugstore. Take a pin and make a little prick in a capsule, and apply the oil directly to your whole eyebrow (this could also substitute for any eyebrow moose/gel that you already use.) </span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Vitamin E & D will help also to prevent breakage (breakage can make the eyebrows look thinner.)</span></span></div>

But my business partner (Jaimee - she’ll be stoked I mentioned her by name) tried it on her eyelashes and she noted a 1-2mm growth in 3-4 weeks.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I recently read as a headline for an article (in the form of ‘breaking news’) “Eyebrows Are Back In Fashion!” It made me chuckle. I didn’t realize that such a thing could actually go in and out of fashion. Oh what feeble sheep us humans can be. Not too sure what one does with these body parts when they are “out of fashion”? Lop them off in fear of the shame of being unfashionable? </span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I study eyebrows. Gone are the days when I evaluate people on character, shoes or boobs. I’ve become a stuck up snob in the presentation of eyebrows and will judge a character based on how well you groom those bushy puppies above your eyes (men included). </span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">My snobbery is completely justified however for I own an eyebrow bar (Play Brow Bar) in South Yarra, Melbourne. Eyebrows have become my life.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Now, one conclusion I have so informatively come to via observation, knowledge and the Mr Ever So Knowledgable Google is that ‘bush is in’. One’s mind may instantly divert to the lower regions of the human anatomy. And my household is very adapt to adopting this ‘bush is in’ principle (in the lower region) not however due to a heightened fashion sense, but simply due to complete and utter ‘marriage comfortableness’.</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Bush, or more eloquently put as ‘fuller brows’ is what one should aim for, not just this season & because it is what is ‘in’ but as a general rule in aid of not looking ridiculous. Pencil thin is out. And has been out before it even came in, for I don’t think it was ever in. Maybe it was. Maybe I missed that memo. None the less. Thin is out and fat is in (gosh wouldn’t that statement be wonderful if it was true for the rest of the female body. Maybe eyebrows will begin a whole new revolution in the female presentation! Wouldn’t that be smashing).</span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I have yet to see a face that suits little wee lines posing as eyebrows. It creates a plastic and an overly expressioned face. Or put another way, look tacky. Have a look at Pammy below. She is hot, boobs or no boobs you wouldn't say no. But the brows don't do much for her. </span></span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The aim would be to go a groomed version of au natural.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">It is recommended that you take you & your hairy wee bush brows in & see an expert in eyebrow shaping. I'm not going to be feeble and plug my eyebrow bar, but I will say go to someone who specializes in threading and knows their stuff. One great way to see if they are any good is look at their brows. Mis-shaped hairy wee puppies equals leave. Nice, groomed, well shaped, suits their 'look' and face shape equals take a seat & let the threading begin.</span></div>

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">There is always the added trick after you've had your bush seen to by an expert and that is the magic of filling in the gaps with pencil or brow shadow to give the smoother, more defined look. You can also play around with your basic shape adding a higher arch or what have you. </span></span></div>
