I once went to for a bikini wax and was fantastically shocked when she proceeded to contort me in ways I’ve only seen in porn movies and give me a “Brazilian.” Of course I didn’t have to walk around with no pants on so…you win.

Hopefully you get a full refund without having to jump through too many hoops.

You could try to have some fun with it by acting nutty in public or make sure you look at people at an angle with squinty eyes. It keeps things fun by acting quirky in public for no real reason.

Hope it grows back soon though.

I think the gods of good grooming are ignoring everyone who didn’t attend BlogHer. I was at BlogHere instead and my eyebrows were a mess. Also, my hair looked like ass because it was 102 degrees.

Oh, WTF? There is NO excuse for not giving you your money back when someone rapes your face like that. You shouldn’t have to do any work to get it back! I think I may have just walked out on them. Hah.

Here’s hoping your brow hair grows back soon.

Still. I’d burn down the building.

I am sorry but you are officially kicked out of the Gap mom group now.
I hope you shaved hers off.

I like Mrs. Schmitty’s idea.

Looks like maybe you’ll be drawing it in for awhile? Seems like if the salon sells make up (many do) they could comp you some brow corrector. Idiots.

I wish I could think of something witty, but I can’t stop staring at what the wax-happy woman did to your eye brow. They BETTER give you a refund.

OH, honey, we have all been there. I had some crazy bitch of a wax lady take way too much off in the center so that, for several weeks, I had kind of a snake-y look, my eyebrows were so far apart. Thank heavens it mostly grew back.

Maybe you will start a new fashion trend. You can call it “Nude Brow” to make it sound sexier.

I think you would be the perfect producer for the BLOGTHEM 09 conference.. You could feature Eyebrow Waxing Do’s and Don’ts Workshops..How to Pluck the Nose-hairs from Customer Service Agents on 800#’s…. And a verity of other more practical Real Life things Real People have to deal with .

Comment on What Are Your Thoughts on Paid Reviews? by Qtpies7

Qtpies7 — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 02:36:48 +0000

My pay comes in the form of trying the product, rarely more than that. Except payperpost. I don’t understand why people are so freaked out about that. Millions of people write about subjects they have no clue about for pay. At least with ppp people do the research and write an ad. And they can pick and choose things that they do think are a fit for them. It is an ad, and ads pay for the space. It is like being a copywriter. A paid copy writer, thank you very much. I don’t see what difference it makes if that ad is on your television, in your newspaper, or on someone’s blog. Someone wrote it, someone paid. Get over it. Newspapers don’t say “This is a sponsored ad.”
If someone doesn’t like it they just don’t do it. It isn’t like we are even making a living off of it. Most of us, anyway.

Comment on The One Hundred Dollar Diaper Rash by Melissa

Melissa — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 16:26:22 +0000

Monistat used to make a diaper rash cream and it was expensive and my doctor told me to just get some OTC generic Vaginal Monistat for my kids. I got a few strange looks intially from my Mother Inlaw. Then her daughter had 6 kids bada-boom-bada-bang and money was tight for them and I seen the old generic dollar store brand vaginal cream on the changing table! You could essentially buy all these products at Dollar General and make a large amount of it for around 10 bucks! No office call, no waiting for a prescription to be filled and a happy baby sooner! I would probably skip the heavy sticky creams and just use the Monistat Those other things tend to “gunk” up the baby and its hard to wash off. I know thats the point of those creams they don’t rub off but is the risk worth the benefit?

Comment on When Life Hands You Lemons, Hand Them Back and Demand Good Wine by Jo

I say you do what you have to. No one should judge you for having to bring in money for your family. It’s a BIG reason why I did paid posts for awhile. For me it was the fact that I’m disabled and can’t work but hate that my husband has to not only pay all the bills but also all the copays for my bazillion medications. So bringing in money helped until my disability kicked in.

I refuse to be ashamed of any of that and you shouldn’t be either. I’ve always enjoyed your blog and will still enjoy it even with the paid posts.
