I had some eyebrows on my last treatment. Once I was finished, they fell completely out.

Taxotere and it's relatives is going to be the source of some amusement: just think about the various ways we've lost hair and nails!

Eyebrows do make a BIG + difference in your appearance. Mine are sparse and rather lighter than my regular hair color. I also wear glasses. I never bothered until I read one of these "you feel terrible and have to be presentable" articles in a supermarket magazine. I tried the brow suggestion along with a tiny dab of white shadow at the inner end of each eye. WOW. And if you want to, you can try different brow styles. I'm possibly seeing my plastic surgeon tomorrow, think I'll shock his socks off.
