    Vintage eyebrow shapes

    Wow! Sorry I haven't checked back in awhile! :) Yes, this is the thinnest I had ever gone... But not for want of being thicker.. This is exactly how I have always wanted them, but the ladies in the salon are ALWAYS too afraid to give me what I want! It's so very frustrating...
