I forgot to post my eyebrow experience of two weeks back. I got them waxed and trimmed. A most amazing experience! I have always had Frida Kahloesque handlebar eyebrows, and to steel myself for the beginning of teaching, I thought I'd get them tidied up. So I booked an appointment at this beauty clinic -- I have NEVER been to a beauty clinic! Am I a real woman now? Half the time, I've no idea what real women do. They wax and pluck and lord knows what, they know how to walk in high heels and they put make-up on their eyelids. All highly mysterious stuff. The eyebrow-removalist said that some girls (mostly of foreign extraction, she implied -- I'm of foreign extraction but I think she must have been referring to a more Southern European and Latin American foreign extraction) come in every 2 or 3 weeks, "they really don't like body hair". *blinks*

The space between my eyebrows (up my nose from my philtrum and above the crossbow of my spectacles) was then strange and pink for about ten days. Because of course not just the bushy hairs get waxed off but the whole kaboodle, all the little softy downy ones, too, so that spot felt really naked. Now it's all starting to grow fuzzy again. But wow, I have eyebrows in the plural!
