Waxxy
I went for an eyebrow wax on Saturday. Actually, since I no longer work at a salon, I went to my old OLD salon that I worked at 5 years ago, and saw an old friend that still works there, for a hair color. My roots were out to THERE and I hadn't had my hair done in about 6 weeks (about 2 weeks too long for my liking). So my friend J. was running late and I thought I'd treat myself to a brow shaping, and not just rip them out myself. The aesthetician asked me what I had in mind, and gave me a beautifully shaped arch. As she's moving on to the second brow, she calmly but tensely says "Is the temperature okay on the wax?". I assured her that it wasn't burning me, but I had a stinging feeling. She says "Well, I've never seen this before, but some of your skin came off". She hands me a mirror and sure enough a patch about the size of a watermelon seed is bleeding and gone! Now its pretty well healed, but I was completely freaked out that my SKIN came off, not just the caterpillar brow. Insane! Of course I not only paid but I tipped. What a goofball I am. I guess I didn't want to cause any waves or anything, who knows. Maybe its because I used to work there?

It MUST be because you used to work there...Gheesh! My sister in law Melinda (oh wait, you know her) has eyebrows that must be rooted in her BRAIN or something because her's bleed pretty badly sometimes.
I never have bled but I do walk around red and puffy for a while. I'm so picky about my eyebrows too because I like a classic glamour arch (like the pin up girls) and most places don't 'get it'. I am usually forced to settle since we live so far out of Nashville where the really good 'waxers' are.
