My older kids are getting ready for college again this fall. They are enjoying a few weeks in between semesters, but I recently ran across one of the schedules they'd printed off. Ah, the course schedule.
Today's Small Thing is to complete EBM 101.
That's Eyebrow Management 101.
It's a prerequisite for CCG Certification, or the Cute Company Girl Certification for Home Sanctuary success.
EBM 101 This is a lab course in which students will complete the shaping, mowing, tweezing or hedge-trimming of personal eyebrows. No previous coursework or field experience required. Students must have access to appropriate tools and lighting, be able to analyze current status of their eyebrows and may lock the door to prevent uninvited observers from incorrectly critiquing results.
So...what do your eyebrows look like today?
Do they rival Andy Rooney's in their unruly scope?
Do they need a hedge trimmer to rein in their bushy tendencies?
Are they sprouting strays that are starting their own eyebrows? (Sorry, Brooke.)
Do you have a unibrow?
You know you need eyebrow management today and you'll thank me for this later.
Eyebrows can get unruly and start developing strays faster than you can imagine, especially if you are busy with more important things than locking yourself in the bathroom and going to town with the tweezers. If you are not sure about how to go about shaping your eyebrows for maximum cuteness, here are a couple of sites that can get you started. Or, you can try youtube:
I'm not a "girly-girl" that is overly obsessed with fashion or self-pampering. But taking a few minutes to spruce up the scraggly eyebrows is a simple way to feel pretty, and I always feel that my expressions of surprise, suspicion, and amazement are enhanced by having eyebrows that arch nicely. You never know when you're going to need an arched brow and it's good to be prepared with ones that look fabulous.
That's just the way Company Girls do things.
