No, the growth rate is too high and this is permanent.

I was very cautious with both the power setting and duration of application.

I am extremely pleased with the result.

Did a professional do this?

The one thing I worry about eyebrows is messing up with electo -- you'd have that mess up for ever, or crooked brows. Personally, I'm too scared to do it.

Good point.  I'm even scared of having a professional do this.  Actually, I would probably rather do it myself and be conservative on the hairs I remove.  So far it has just been daily plucking for me.

No hon, I did it. I was conservative with the shaping, but I am very pleased with the result.
