I trimmed, plucked and shaped my eyebrows years ago without any consideration as to the best eyebrow shape for my face (who knew?). Lucky girl that I am (not), my trimming, plucking and shaping matched what the StyleCaster article recommended for my oval face, so I am good to go.
By the way, early on I hesitated doing much with my brows fearing that civilians might wonder what was that big guy doing with girly eyebrows. I cleaned up the strays, but not much else and nobody noticed. Emboldened, I began plucking and shaping my brows and still nobody noticed.
One day, I realized that the eyeglasses I wore in boy mode hid what was going on. So even more emboldened, I completely feminized my eyebrows and have maintained girly brows ever since. And no one ever noticed or at least, no one ever mentioned it. On the other hand, my hairdresser trims strays without asking, so somebody did notice.

Stana, love your browstory. Mine is somewhat similar. About two years ago I plucked up the courage to have them threaded, but not too much you understand! The next time I had them waxed, but not too much, and thought that it was a better experience. I have continued with having them waxed until about six months ago I said to myself ‘go for it’ as they hide behind my glasses anyway. When I left the salon I was self-conscious but the earth did not open up and swallow me. I like them nicely waxed and have not had any comments.
