Men That Shape Their Eyebrows

One crazy thing that really surprised me in Japan is the amount of people that shape their brows. I attended a Japanese middle school for two years and 50% or more of my classmates had their eyebrows shaped, even the guys! Not only are they plucked, but they are usually shaped by the person himself. So I just couldn't help but notice how uneven and badly shaped they were. Yes, there are some that get it right, but very few.


Koki Tanaka is a huge pop
star in Japan. He looks great,
but I think he'd look so much
better if he didn't shape those
brows too much!
I can understand the rush to have great eyebrows and it seems natural as a teenager to want to shape them. But I can't seem to understand why men pluck their eyebrows. As I have stated above, my guy friends in Japan even did them! I don't think men need to worry about their brows unless it's a serious uni brow or if their hairs grow too long. To me I think men look absolutely sexy with their natural brows. Maybe they might need a little trimming here and there sometimes, but to me it seems weird for men to want to shape them to the extremes. Like very thin or curvy brows. Even the celebrities in Japan sometimes have badly shaped eyebrows and I just don't get it.

Eyebrows are an extremely crucial part of your whole face and if you mess up on them it really harms your whole look. My eyebrows aren't shaped yet, but I wouldn't dare touch them without going to a salon or having a specialist do them first. So I always question why my friends and many people around the world have such courage to shape their eyebrows themselves. Specialists can make a really great shape to your brows and afterwards it's safe to pluck new hairs that might come in.

My advice: before you try doing something to you eyebrows, consult a professional!
And to the men: you guys look attractive with your natural brows, so don't do anything crazy to them!
