i plucked mine and i dont recommend cause it took me over 6 months to get them even and perfect, i recommend that u just go to a hair salon and get them waxed. i mean i go to a hair salon every month and the girls and guys there didnt know i was transgender until i told them and they didnt care, they were so nice. Me and the girls there always laughing while they  do my hair and we  talk bout boys and weddings and stuff like that  i mean im not ashamed of being transgender and niether should u  :)

ok ? well there are actually eye brow stencils you can buy over the internet, so you can choose your shape, all you got to do is carefully pluck them according to that desired stencil. Not tried using stencils for shaping before, I am usually quite deft at doing my own every now and then as they need, I just thought it might be a help, it might not, but its just a thought anyway :)

I would go to a professional. Don't mess up your eyebrows. Men get their eyebrows waxed all the time.

Go to a salon... If not just google the difference... Google feminine eyebrow arch for a good idea. Remember, womens eyebrows start higher above the eye, so if you're going to thin them yourself, make sure you start at the bottom. Tweezing them yourself wont take too terribly long as long as you can pull many out at once.

Just remember you have to check then everyday. You don't want them getting out of control again. If you're going to get them waxed, please go to a professional. There's a lot that can go wrong by waxing, and a professional will get it right the first time.

Google "threading eyebrows" in your area. Less painful (not that waxing is all that bad), and far more accurate.

In my area (Seattle WA) threading brows is about $10.

Another vote for go get them waxed.. Quick, easy and fairly cheap..

The woman who does mine is great, I see her about once a month..

Doing your own eyebrows is really difficult I usually have my cousin come over to do mine! Do you have any friends that can pluck/wax eyebrows? If not then looking up youtube videos might be your only answer. Or you can do this. Use a glue stick and run it down your eyebrows then use a good concealer to cover them up! Here's a link to a very wonderful makeup artist on youtube! Hope it helps! Covering Eye Brows (2 ways!) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb3D-afzKEc#)
