Alesia informed right before getting out of the car at school today that she had darkened her eyebrows. I looked, and sure enough she had taken a BLACK pencil [art pencil, I’m sure] and darkened up her little eyebrows. Looked a tad freaky. Looked like two black caterpillars crawling across her face. I said “Sweetie, you’re a natural blonde – you can’t use black pencil! It looks weird.” She looked puzzled and then said she knew blondes with black eyebrows. I said well they weren’t natural blondes, I guarantee you. LOL.
She is so fari, you can't see her eyebrows. I am going to let her darken her eyebrows but a light brown, not black. She can’t wear real makeup until she’s 15 – she knows that. The eyebrow thing is a hoot, though. My mother darkens her eyebrows and I darken mine when I wear makeup, and she has seen that, so we’ve corrupted her!
