Apart from two slugs.

He's used a word/term to describe his brows and I can't remember what it is. HD? Was that it? And if so, what does HD stand for? Ta.

In the town nearest to where I live, there is only one salon offering HD brows. The woman who does them is not very accomplished at it, so there are a lot of people wandering round looking like they are either permanently surprised, or pantomime villians.

So what is an eyebrow bar FFS.

I assume it is like a nail bar but for eyebrows. However going to a nail bar makes a certain sense. I am guessing acrylic nails last several weeks and even a manicure and polish will last a week, longer with a bit of touching up. So t go once a week or once a month seems doable.

Are the brows semi permanent? I just cant see people popping into a brow bar, on their way to work each day, to have eyebrows drawn on.

He would probably use Sharpies.

Yes, 'HD' meaning it's geared solely for latest TV broadcasting format--c/f SuperCass rejoicing her new frock, etc was now in HD. Mark's ridiculous brows are an Epic FAIL in any broadcast system, btw--just look like splodgy marker pen streaks. On BOTS he 'envied' Zoe's 'Brow Kit' despite her ridiculous eyebrows being the least attractive part of a genuinely lovely woman!!

Exactly! They make poor Edith Piaf's seem 'normal'. YUCK!! Still prefer Mark's stupid brows to his ghastly, unflattering, cowpat hairdo which he's bafflingly so Proud of. UGGH!

It would appear from the brief research I did a few weeks ago that HD is a trade name. It seems to be one of these numerous cases of people taking something we have all been doing for a while and then packaging it, surrounding it with hype so you can sell people what they have or know already.

The training industry are masters at this selling people back their own skills, under their brand, at a price and calling it accreditation. And simultaneously creating a market by making out that nobody can possibly do a job unless they have had 'their' training and are accredited. Much of it is pure smoke and mirrors.

But at least these have a sort of spurious logic and can be commercially implemented. But if my understanding of an brow bar is correct I just don't see how to make it work operationally. Surely first thing in the morning you would be inundated with customers and then after about 10am would have your resource idle. Unless of course people are happy to spend half a day without eyebrows until they can pop in to get them done later in the day.

To me it looks like another aspect of our avaricious society and the marketing men who fuel it by convincing us we need a lot of unnecessary shit. Its about time someone stood up and pointed out that the Emperor is wearing no clothes.

Ohh errr that turned into a it of a rant didn't it? Sorry folks

Boll Ox. Sorry not you Blondie. The concept.

I saw a picture of Chantelle recently, sporting Groucho Mark's eyebrows. A pretty face ruined.
