    Okay, the wife and me had a pretty bad fight last night because she started up on me again about grooming my eyebrows. Don't get me wrong - it is not like I have a unibrow thing going but she always thinks that my eyebrows are too bushy or that they have "horns" to them. I think that it is ridiculous for a man to groom his eyebrows unless he is taking care of a unibrow problem. However, in reading various things on the net, it seems like more and more guys are doing this (at least ones that aren't considered "metrosexuals"). So, here is the question - do you groom your eyebrows?

    I don't groom, but I do pluck out the wild ones, damn that hurts.

    I don't. But if your wife would like them groomed, I'd go ahead and compromise. As long as they weren't tweezed too much.

    I don't but I've thought about it...I don't have a uni, but some of them are wild...

    A friend recommended if I do it, to thread instead of wax...

    Oh my God, please don't wax your eyebrows...if anything, pluck a few strays.

    I don't understand how it's more attractive to have perfectly groomed eyebrows (for a man). It's kind of creepy. Well, unless it's REALLY out of hand. like, inch-long hairs. I've seen a man with the longest eyebrow hair ever. I wanted to trim it for him.

    I'd say tweezing and trimming are okay....but waxing...no!

    I started trimming them when I turned 40 -- thats when the long wild ones started showing up.

    I get one or two dark hairs between my eyebrows. Not exactly a unibrow but I take care of it anyway. I use a small microtrimmer and while I'm at it, I go ahead and use the guard attachment and run it across my eyebrows. So it takes less than a minute to do everything and I might only do it every 2 or 3 weeks. It looks better and there's minimal effort involved so why not.

    i shave the unibrow once every few weeks and do a bit of the rest every few months at the gf's insistence. I can understand, I have eyebrows worse than sylar and eyebrows are generally the last thing I notice about a person unless they take up more than 10% of the face. Always remember though, whenever the gf asks you to do something, take it as an opportunity to bargain for something on her side (lose some weight, get oral sex, etc..)

    My barber trims them every time I get a haircut.

    My wife loves to do away with the long, wiry ones with nail clippers. She does me every 2-3 weeks. I could care less and would probably look like Einstein if it weren't for her.

    This poll sucks. I didn't have an option to pick so I went with the wife or girlfriend one since my mom always calls me out on keeping them groomed. But then I hate having bushy eyebrows anyway.

    Where is the option for I groom my eyebrows and I don't care if anyone knows about it? I have a little trimmer that I use probably every couple of weeks, then shave with a razor every few days to keep from growing a unibrow.

    I found a grey hair in my goatee last week. :(

    My hair person uses a comb and clippers to trim my eyebrows when I get my haircut.
