I waited too long to get a haircut, and when I finally got it cut, I forgot to ask them to trim my eyebrows.
Then I forgot to trim my eyebrows. Really, I didn't forget, but I didn't have a comb at home to facilitate the trimming. I went to the nearby dollar store and picked up a comb for $1, and headed home to give myself some over-the-eye grooming.
I used the skinny side of the comb, put it right up against the skin, and used my beard trimmer to cut it nice and close.
Too close.
Yeah, I kind of overdid it. Not only that -- Amanda says the cut wasn't exactly even.
So, advice to any man considering trimming his own eyebrows (and I say man, because most women know better already):

- Get a professional to do it,
- Get your wife to do it,
- Get your cat to help,
- Use the THICK side of the comb
- Be careful
- Don't go too short
- Don't try
You get your eyebrows trimmed?? What happens if you don't? Do you end up looking like this guy? -> http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tVoB0GPpju0/Te-8uUtFhYI/AAAAAAAAEVg/0_1EUAqUVks/s400/bushy_eyebrows.gif
