LONDON (Reuters) – British men are becoming increasingly interested in having their eyebrows professionally groomed, according to Debenhams department store which plans to hold men-only "guybrow" nights.
Men, it said, now make up 40 percent of the visitors to its brow bars, double the proportion of a year ago.
They are going for a treatment called "threading," an ancient method of hair removal which originated in India in which a thin twine of cotton thread is rolled over the offending area, plucking the hair from the follicle level.

British men, now an Oxymoron.
Mine are clipped every month at the barber, otherwise they would get stuck in dangerous machinery.
Many women have told me I have perfect eyebrows. Figures that’s what I would get stuck with for a best feature.
Now when they sing “The Lumberjack Song” they can not only sing it with gusto - they can look darn cute while singing it.

ROFL!
(and not skateboards either!)
Mrs. Altair insists on my eyebrows being groomed. If that makes me something less than a man, ACKKKK THPPPPUTTTT!
I call it “domestic tranquility”.
My barber..not hairstylist...trims my eyebrows and I trim my nose and ear hair
These metrosexuals are starting to creep me out.
Lol
Let me know when stylists start working on ear hair. That’s the fashion statement I’m waiting for.
Bushy, LONG eyebrows are gross. When I see a married man with them, I wonder why the hell his wife doesn’t tell him to trim them.
Me too. SOmetimes they trim me eyebrows when I get a haircut, but I don’t like it, as I know that will only make thae hair grow more.
I started trimming my brows when they started growing faster and thicker than the hair on my head. I use a standard electric hair trimmer set low. Let me tell you, that first initial pass was an act of faith!
Well, when manliness is discouraged, and England in general is very feminized with all forms of wussification, the men have to find something to entertain themselves with. Daydreaming about sharia law is a passtime in London and many “men” are wishing they were women so they could wear those cool looking barqas.
