What's up?
Today, after much debate, I let my mom wax my eyebrows. Now I get to look super surprised until they grow back. FML

Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I decided to wax my eyebrows. My entire eyebrow came off. FML
Today, my sister gave me a makeover. I protested, but she insisted it'd look great. After an eternity of eyebrow plucking, she handed me the mirror. I now have extremely badly-drawn sharpie eyebrows. FML
Today, I thought it would be a good idea to use my epilator on my eyebrows. Needless to say I now have the eyebrow equivalent of a comb-over. FML
Today, I had my eyebrows waxed for my senior pictures. After manhandling me, the cosmetologist managed to "accidentally" take my whole eyebrow off. It looks like I'll be remembered forevermore as the girl with one eyebrow. FML
Today, I decided to wax my own eyebrows with a Do It Yourself kit from the pharmacy. I'm now missing half of my right eyebrow. FML
Today, I woke up from a short nap, only to find two waxing strips stuck to my eyebrows. I now have very little of my eyebrows remaining, and just as little idea which idiot in my family pulled this stupid excuse of a prank. FML
Today, when getting my eyebrows waxed, the lady cursed "oh shit!" under her breath, right after waxing half of my brow off. FML
Today, I asked my aunt to pluck my eyebrows since hers are perfectly done. What I didn't know is she gets hers professionally shaped and she doesn't know how to shape eyebrows. I now look like a surprised Vulcan. FML
Today, I got my sister to pluck my eyebrows. She shaped them wrong, so now I look constantly sad. FML
Today, in front of my friends, my mom came after me with a pair of tweezers exclaiming, "There's just a couple of hairs on your chin that need to be plucked." I'm a 14 year-old girl. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You will look like a giant teddy bear!

Unless OP had a crazy amount of eyebrow hair, and OP's mom glued them onto OP's body, covering OP, I don't think so. And if the mom did, I think that would be the FML. Not the surprised look part.

It's not necessary to make them stay looking ridiculous. Eyebrow kits are everywhere! A bunch of drugstore (and high end places as well) carry them, find one that suits your hair and skin and fill them back on. The prospect of drawing eyebrows on always sounds daunting, but it's easy to make them look nice and natural! Even youtube it.

actually... don't wax OP! your brows will sag in the future... Threading is better

That's kind of how my aunts are. They are like straight up then straight down.

I don't see why this is getting downvoted. It's a temporary solution until the hair grows back, and if done properly the drawn eyebrows will look fine.

#8: Maybe because they're probably already drawn on?

Some people remove their eyebrows so they Can draw them back. It means they get exactly what they want. Use this time to experiment.

#10: I suppose you're right; it's what I do. I shave my eyebrows off, draw the eyebrows back on, and then wax the hairless skin. That makes total sense.

I bet

#12 I meant that it was being thumbed down because OP had already drawn them back on, and that being why they looked surprised. edit: unless that still doesn't make sense then sorry :c

#36; OP meant that her mom waxed off too much of her eyebrows and shaped them in a way that makes her look surprised all the time, most likely extrnely arched. Where in the FML does it say she drew them back on? I don't understand how you came to that conclusion.

#39: I just assumed that she screwed the whole thing up and ended up having them entirely re-drawn on, and then that was messed up too. My first comment wasn't meant to be snarky either, by the way, just realized it kinda sounded like it, sorry guys

Drawn on eyebrows look better any ways.

If we all did this shit, the comments section would just be a list of numbers. Cut it out.

I agree... it really is useless

41st! See how silly that looks?

Hey, it's cheaper than botox and you got the same result. Yay!
abbey728 16
I think you're confused.

I think he was referring to facial nerves being numb accidentally which would indeed make for the same outcome
gracehi 33
Yes, 31, that's what I was referring to. I'm guessing not many people have seen comedies that feature aging women desperately clinging to their youth.

You have no idea what botox is do you?
gracehi 33
I'm not an expert on botox no, but I do have some idea what it is. It's a drug that is sometimes used in dermatology to smooth wrinkled skin, however it can have the side effect of temporarily paralyzing the facial muscles which can result in a stunned expression.

At least you still have eybrows left, right?

what? re-Read the fml

Always leave it to professionals to do this kind of work. Family members always seem to botch these kinds of things.

If anyone makes fun of you, just insult them by saying you're surprised at their overwhelming ugliness.

Gahh that's terrible! I would never trust anyone with my eyebrows. Once my brother-in-law's sister asked me to cut her hair. Well I had never cut hair and to this day I'll never know how to. Long story short, her hair was up to her waste and by the time I was done she had it up to her shoulders.... You'll have your brows back in 3 months.. or at least enough of them :)

If you didn't know how to cut hair why in the world would you agree to cut her hair???
jazzy_123 20
we were best friends at the time and we didn't think the hair cut she wanted would be harder than expected. Haha it was pretty funny. Come on, lighten up a bit. Don't tell me you've never done anything stupid with your friends.
