I Finally Talk About My Feelings For CountryHumans
I don’t necessarily hate it (if i were to be hating it i would’ve been making a ch hate acc or posting in that subreddit), but i have many problems with it.
Let’s start with how i first encountered countryhumans--- just over a year ago (about late April) me and my sister were stranded in our cousin’s home because we were going to tend to our sick grandmother (now dead; rest-in-peace) i found Pkrussl’s video about circle flagheads, clicked on it, and burst out laughing. so i got the deal, and tried to avoid this cursed thing that sexualises the third reich.
That worked well.
and now here i am, a year in limbo.
if limbo hurts me too much, i won’t be able to stand burning hell that was my life for the past fifteen years.
hey, do you know what’s the most frustrating thing about this fandom? it’s about the fact that people would pay attention to what was already GIVEN to them and shunts aside the people who actually has much more creative ideas than what the bland mainstream has. aren’t people... supposed to love ORIGINAL and CREATIVE ideas? or is it the fact that people are so used to the mainstream that it made them lose the fact that they have creativity and goes along with the flow, dancing to the good artists (yet... terribly lacking in actual content) and this makes me... frustrated. the fact that we can only get to fame by drawing the ‘famous’ countries and its ‘famous dynamic’ (i’ve seen half-assed gacha pieces get more likes than me... WHAT)
also the most i complained about is that i broke my wrists writing and drawing to give content out for everyone but in the end they... get.... 5-10 notes... while the shitposts i wrote for ten seconds.... can get to 100.... guess people here in this fandom REALLY LOVE originality B)
then there’s also the sexualisation... but we aren’t talking about THAT, we’re gonna talk about the inconsiderate assholes who think they’re the ‘angel saviours’ of the fandom by saying that we are... disrespecting people’s sexualising and fetishising interpretations of horrible regimes we have horrible memories of. the most current example i have is @redffeather‘s post about the Japanese Empire here, then look at the comments.
yeah so i got mad at those comments because first of all--- they have NO IDEA of the impact the Imperial Japanese Army made, and second of all, they did more bad than good, and third, they said it was disrespectful and asked deci why she put it on the ch’s hashtag.
haha why don’t u read the whole thing u dumb bitch-- don’t u have at least ONE brain cell rather than critique someone who was just frustrated at the whole fandom?
then there was also my discord argument w/ some guy, and they said the Soviet Union wasn’t ‘that bad’ and i told them ‘um they killed 20 million people’. then they responded with ‘i bet you googled that’. then proceed to make fun of the whole debacle by including Canada burning the White House.
u can tell and Estonian/Kazakh/Ukrainian that the Soviet Union wasn’t that bad. how would they respond
then there was also a comment in a Korean Empire/Japanese Empire drawing (EW EW EW) who said that their relative was a comfort woman and this is offensive, another person told them ‘it’s fictional’ and to ‘get out’.
yeah so basically most of the ch fandom are rather... inconsiderate with other people’s feelings, and prioritise their own. this makes me rather annoyed, as i have loads of assholes harrassing me for.... making Philippines embody the government rather than the people... i don’t... WHAT
THE CH FANDOM FEEDS OFF OF MY SPITE, ANGER, STRESS AND ALL MY NEGATIVE EMOTIONS
TL;DR:
someone: hey the IJA was a horrible army--- please stop sexualising it
inconsiderate person: OH MY GOD YOU’RE SO MEAN DON’T LIKE DON’T LOOK!!!

I’m not usually one to wallow. Especially being clinically depressed, I try to focus on being positive - even if I have to fake it to make it. I operate as a very optimistic pessimist and positive nihilist; which sound oxymoronic but in reality i take comfort in expecting the worst and taking life for what it is - hoping to be pleasantly surprised. “It is what it is” is essentially my motto and I don’t mean that in a negative way. I don’t necessarily mean it in a positive, either. I mean it exactly as it is. If things suck, they suck, can’t do anything but deal with it. If things are excellent, amazing, I will rejoice in those moments when I can. Wallowing, regret, wishful thinking serve no purpose and I ultimately tend to avoid it. Dwelling won’t solve anything. Sometimes, I can’t help it, though - or I can, it just takes more effort than I am able to give. 
Depressive episode hit me like a truck now and despite my best efforts I thought about all the things I had lost recently for the first time, really. 
I miss my grandpa - mainly miss not having to worry about his worsening state and my grandma’s mental health surrounding his mental decline. He was always there in my life, although sort of vacant and not really present in the moment, however when he would be he was always upbeat and would sing a little italian song or make silly hand gestures. Now he’s always in mental or physical pain and it’s very hard to see. 
I miss my old coworkers. I can still see them if I want, but I miss working with them - and they miss working with me. A few have reached out over the past couple months. 
I miss my ferret. It’s only been a few days and I’ve done a good job distracting myself, but throughout the day when I drop my guard I think about that awful night and I think about the good times which hurt right now, too. 
Most of all, I miss my kid - my stepson.  He was a very difficult child and many times it was incredibly taxing to raise him, so partly it’s nice to be all by myself and just me for once in my life. Selfishly, I realize, I prefer it despite how hard I fought and would continue to fight to have him in my life if not for how my ex handled the situation. 
On the other hand, I love that kid with every fiber of my being and raised him for nearly six years - most of his life and a fifth of mine. I think about all the lessons I taught him and watching as they took root and how he used them in life. I thought about all the art projects, and pillow/air forts, and cosplays, and pictures, and bedtime readings, and make-your-own-adventure stories, and home-haircuts, and day trips, and meals, and lunchbox notes I wrote him thinking he didnt care but the one day i didn’t he noticed and asked why i hadnt. I think about how he loved Ozzy Osborne and Queen and Panic! at the Disco because I did. I think about how he thought he was Ukrainian by association. I think about the video games we played, the last being guitar hero and how good he got and how much he liked Holy Diver. How the last time I talked to him, he held conversation so well because he’s growing up and he talked about Naruto which he got into because of me, bringing it up on his own because it was something we both related to. 
What I think about most, though, is the cuddles. That Dishonored post where Corvo smooths a hand over his daughter’s head as she’s hugging him reminded me so strongly of Speedy. I would do that all the time - all the time, it was like a signature move. It was such a paternal/parental instinct. He would hug me and I would run my hand over his head, my thumb would rub against the back of his neck, usually kiss the top of his head, too. Sometimes he would sit in my lap and put his head against my neck and I would rub his back comfortingly. Sometimes, he would piggy-back ride but he usually preferred being held against my front; little koala, we called it.  Nearly every time when we were chilling on the couch, he was tucked into my side or laying on top of me when he was younger.
But that post with Emily and Corvo really just shot me in the gut when I realized why it was so familiar. It happens so fast in the game, I barely noticed, but seeing it repeat in gif form caught the emotions in my throat. Hundreds of memories of me doing the same hit me and I swear I could feel the phantom memory on my palm of his hair as I stroked it. 
Getting it off my chest was good, now i’m back to, like, masking it with humor because i made this 
Tumblr media
which making memes to rationalize my pain is the next step to getting over it for me, at least for the moment. 
I was going to use today to be productive, but i didn’t go to bed until 8am and woke up at 3pm and still in that depressive mindspace so i’m going to shower and distract myself/relax/recoup and force myself to go to bed no later than midnight so i can get up early and actually be productive tomorrow
i need to get my life back on track. I’m sort of on the rails now, but some of the train’s wheels are loose and it is one tenuous slip from careening off course tbh. I’m on top of it, I’ve lived most of my life that way, and I’m always strong enough to plow through, but moments like these just...suck.
current mental state: shrug emoji and cartoonishly sad trombone tune womp womp

Online dating advice: What is dating burnout?
Some daters claim that they can’t see any hope after trying so hard in the dating department – that is dating burnout. Now I’d like to talk about what causes dating burnout and how to minimize its influence.
The real reasons behind dating burnout:
Usually, there are two main reasons for dating burnout: 1) People join the dating scene with very unrealistic expectations such as “The next woman that I talk to has to be the woman that I will definitely marry”. 2) People choose the wrong focus, e.g. sending messages back and forth without having a video chat, going out with candidates that they are not really attracted to, not enjoying other areas of their lives, etc.
Some men complain about how hard dating is or even argue that they’ve already lost hope. Yet that is actually caused by their cynical attitude rather than the reality of Internet dating.
There are many false beliefs that dominate a lot of guys’ thoughts, i.e. “There are not enough great women out there”, “Nobody can find serious relationships online” and “I will never meet a wonderful woman again.” These are all false beliefs that create mental blocks. So, please do not internalize any of these dangerous beliefs.
Frankly, if you experience dating burnout, you just need to take a break, and that’s okay. Simply do something that energizes you, something wholesome. Surround yourself with family and friends who encourage you. Explore a new interest or hobby. It’s perfectly normal to have a rest!
During the break, you keep working on yourself.
Never stop working on yourself because you can always improve some areas of your life. Now I’d like you to do a fun activity: deliver a speech in front of a camera and watch your own video. Observe how you come across in the video. Do you need to say “like” less frequently? Should you stop scratching your head while thinking about what to say next? These habits can apparently be changed if you think it’s necessary.
I recently interviewed a Ukrainian lady who works in the online business industry. She is also taking a break after dating burnout. During this break, she started a successful business in Ukraine.
“What do you consider a significant business challenge in your country today, and how do you propose to address it?” I asked her.
“Okay. Let me start by analyzing the challenge. In Ukraine, today a significant business challenge is corruption which has seriously affected entrepreneurship. This is especially true when someone is looking to start their own business in Ukraine. As a result, entrepreneurs generally find it very hard to be successful and the failure rate of entrepreneurship is quite high in Ukraine,” says this Ukrainian woman, “But there are some effective solutions, fortunately. First, the business landscape has changed dramatically due to the popularity of the Internet. In other words, many years ago, people in Ukraine had to reply on local connections in order to do sales and marketing well. However, in this day and age, the Internet has fundamentally revolutionized how businesses operate. More specifically, these days entrepreneurs can set up online businesses which may have global customers. Second, without the support from the government, entrepreneurs in Ukraine can still do Internet marketing effectively because the Internet is not a government official who works as a gatekeeper. For example, in today’s day and age, social media marketing is mainstream already and this strategy should be properly implemented because social media platforms are where consumers’ attention is. Another example is Search Engine Optimization (SEO) which is an important business skill that should be mastered by modern entrepreneurs. That means as long as an entrepreneur knows how to optimize their website’s SEO, that website will rank very high in search results on Google. This technique is better and more sustainable than running ads on Google because most consumers trust organic search results rather than Google ads. Therefore, innovation is the solution to the above-mentioned business issue in Ukraine.”
Remain positive at all times.
It’s ten times harder for a pessimist to find true love. Sadly, going through challenges and disappointment in dating and relationships could make people more pessimistic, so you have to avoid this toxic vibe.
The most rewarding experiences come when you are around people who are looking for something positive, who trust that something better will rock up.
Of course, I know there is a difference between “optimistic” and “naïve”. I highly believe that realism is the best approach. Having said that, pessimism is definitely unhelpful. Full stop.
Let’s say you go out for a date and that person says, “I simply chose the wrong guys all the time” & “I was so unlucky in dating and relationships”. How would you feel? Do you really think that’s the right woman that you should marry? Truthfully, nobody wants to partner up with someone who sees themselves as the unfortunate loser.
Everyone is looking forward to meeting someone inspiring because optimism is so irresistible.
I understand that pain and heartbreak can happen. However, it is your responsibility to deal with the hurt and give yourself a clean slate before you join an online dating site.
Become a better version of yourself.
You are only human. It’s okay to have insecurities, anxieties and shortcomings. Maybe some of those come from childhood trauma, bad relationships, and so forth. Nevertheless, when you start dating again, you must decide whether you are going to let those flaws drown or define you, or you will rise above those flaws. It’s not really about how many flaws you have or how terrible your flaws are; it’s all about how you cope with your flaws. That is to say, the way you handle your flaws will define the future of your romantic relationship with a Ukrainian bride.
No, you don’t need to be perfect in order to have a good relationship. Never let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Having said that, there is a difference between accepting yourself fully and complacency. Let me explain.
In fact, complacency is being so satisfied that you stop growing. When you refuse to grow, your life becomes stagnant. No one is attracted to that energy because it’s so boring.
When someone is complacent, they become entitled. That is not an attractive trait at all.
I know many people ruined their relationships – oftentimes, it’s their fatal flaws that sabotaged their relationships rather than a lack of positive traits. Therefore, you don’t have to reinvent yourself in order to keep a Ukrainian wife. All you need to do is to become 10% better, and that is already a game-changer. I mean when you get rid of your worst traits, your partner will feel appreciated. That’s when you have peace in your relationship. Ultimately, peace is an absence of the war caused by a fatal flaw.
“Dating burnout is not uncommon. It’s important to take a break and have enough rest so that you can join the dating scene again with great energy.”

Iranian Tech Users Are Getting Knocked Off the Web by Ambiguous Sanctions
Between targeted killings, retaliatory air strikes, and the shooting of a civilian passenger plane, the last few weeks have been marked by tragedy as tensions rise between the U.S. and Iranian governments. In the wake of these events, Iranians within the country and in the broader diaspora have suffered further from actions by both administrations—including violence and lethal force against protesters and internet shutdowns in Iran, as well as detention, surveillance and device seizure at the U.S. border and exacerbating economic conditions from U.S. sanctions. And to make matters worse, American tech companies are acting on sanctions through an overbroad lens, making it much harder for Iranian people to be able to share their stories with each other and with the broader world.
The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions that target foreign countries, groups, and individuals. Some of these sanctions impact the export to Iran (or use by residents of the country) of certain types of technology, although trying to parse precisely which types are affected appears to have left some companies puzzled.
For example, this week Instagram removed a number of accounts from its service that were affiliated with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)—which is specially designated by OFAC—as well as some accounts praising the IRGC and some condemning the group. The platform initially justified its actions stating:
We review content against our policies and our obligations to US sanctions laws, and specifically those related to the US government’s designation of the IRGC and its leadership as a terrorist organization.
While Instagram is indeed obligated to remove accounts affiliated with the IRGC, the law does not extend to unaffiliated accounts providing commentary on the IRGC—although some experts say that posts supporting a specially designated group could be seen as providing support to the group, thus violating sanctions.
In any case, Instagram may choose to remove accounts praising the IRGC under its own community standards. In the end, Instagram ended up restoring at least one account following media criticism.
A long hard road
EFF has long observed tech companies’ struggle with OFAC sanctions. In 2012, an Apple employee refused to sell a laptop to a customer who was overheard speaking Persian, prompting the State Department to issue a clarifying statement:
[T]here is no U.S. policy or law that prohibits Apple or any other company from selling products in the United States to anybody who’s intending to use the product in the United States, including somebody of Iranian descent or an Iranian citizen or any of that stuff.
In 2013, we spoke up when Airbnb booted an Iranian resident of Switzerland from their platform without recourse, resulting in a reversal of the decision.
And now, as tensions between the U.S. and Iran heat up, we’re seeing tech companies booting Iranians from their platforms left and right. For example:
Github closed the account of a computer science professor teaching at a Canadian university
GoFundMe suspended two different Canadian campaigns to raise funds for a memorial service for the crash victims of the Ukrainian airliner flight PS752
Iranians have reported being blocked from downloading the Twitter app from Google’s Play Store.
YouTube suspended the UK branch of an Iranian government-funded broadcast outlet
...But are these companies correct in stripping Iranians of their accounts? The answer: It’s complicated.
Iran is subject to certain OFAC sanctions, and in addition to that, the IRGC and certain Iranian nationals are on OFAC’s list of “specially designated nationals.” OFAC sanctions can be interpreted broadly by tech companies, which is why in 2010, the Treasury Department issued a general license intended as a blanket license for the export of “certain services and software incident to the exchange of personal communications over the Internet, such as instant messaging, chat and email, social networking, sharing of photos and movies, web browsing, and blogging, provided that such services are publicly available at no cost to the user.”
In 2014, that license was amended to include even more products, including certain fee-based services “incident to the exchange of personal communications over the Internet” including social networking. The new license, General License D-1, provided greater clarity to companies on what is and is not subject to sanctions. As the National Iranian American Council pointed out in a 2017 letter, General License D-1 has been widely praised for “securing human rights, protecting access to online information, and avoiding government censors.”
As the events of this week demonstrate, companies are still struggling to understand the rules. And understandably so—as Richard Nephew, a sanctions expert and senior research scholar at Columbia University told CNN:
[T]his is a tough gray area as we also have free speech protections too.  This is why I think companies often make mistakes in this area, both by preventing such posts or activities and by allowing them …
But while the rules might be difficult, companies are making things worse by failing to properly communicate to users about why their accounts have been suspended—and by giving misleading or incorrect statements to the media.
Why does this matter?
Sanctions that prevent the free flow of communications on the internet and hamper ordinary the ability of ordinary Iranians to express themselves often harm the very people they’re intended to help. Over the years, we’ve seen how sanctions on tech—as well as misapplication or overbroad application of such sanctions—hurt individuals from all walks of life by denying them access to information and cutting them off from communication with the rest of the world.
After the 2014 issuance of General License D-1 for Iranians, Sudanese citizens embarked on a campaign for a similar license, arguing that sanctions prevented them from accessing e-books, online courses, and other information. In a country where the government bans books and at times seizes newspapers, the knowledge that can be gained online can make all the difference. For Iranians, greater access can also mean safer access—to VPNs, secure messaging apps, and other vital tools.
But it isn’t just access to information—it’s also the information coming out of Iran that’s affected. When a Ukrainian airliner was struck down in Iranian airspace, it was video taken from inside the country—as well as efforts by individuals in Iran—that led to verification that Iran’s government had struck the plane with a missile. As we’ve pointed out before, policies intended to prevent violent extremists from using online services often have the effect of silencing human rights content. And given how little access international media has to Iran, hearing from Iranians about what’s happening on the ground is vital.
Furthermore, Iran has seen fit in the past to shut down the Internet, preventing its residents from accessing the outside world. If the U.S. government truly believes in the internet freedom policy that it continues to pour millions of dollars into, it should see how its own policies are working against freedom and pushing Iranians toward local services that are likely heavily surveilled or censored. As it stands, the U.S. is just helping Iran do the job of silencing its citizens.
A clearer way forward
As moral panic and confusion set in, more and more companies are seeking to enforce sanctions law—and as they do, it’s vital that they have the best possible information at hand so ordinary citizens aren’t unduly impacted. As such, we are reiterating our ask for the Department of Treasury to update General License D-1 and provide guidance to U.S. tech companies to ensure the minimal amount of damage to users.
But although sanctions are hard, we also call on tech companies to exercise both caution and compassion as they navigate these murky waters. Companies should ensure that they’re using the best possible means to identify potentially impacted users; notify them clearly (by providing information about specific statutes and links to relevant information from the Department of Treasury); and most importantly, provide an appeals system so that users who are wrongly identified have a path of recourse to regain access to their accounts.

Eyebrow Feathering; Is it Worth It?
What Really Happens When You Get Eyebrow Feathering? Does it Hurt?
First thing first. Does it hurt? Yes. Yes it does. But is it worth it? One gigantic YES!
Obviously I like to look as natural as possible, however I am no stranger to small cosmetic procedures. Plus I think I have been dying my hair black for over 15 years now. Let me give you a little bit of background information first. I am half Ukrainian and my hair is actually brown with red through it that goes blonde at the front in summer. I tan REALLY easily. So it is not easy staying this pale. I take my sunscreen, hat and umbrella usage VERY seriously. If you read my introduction blog post Hello! Set to Glow? you would know that when I was a teenager I had acne. I also mentioned that I was pretty sick and as a result of taking medication my body didn't like, I got pretty severe pustular acne... This was the start of my obsession with laser. At first I wanted to treat my acne, then once that was dormant I treated my scars and then I moved on to treating my pigmentation. Now I use laser as a regular facial - I have sensitive skin that likes being burnt off instead of lots of product. Go figure.
So I dye my hair black, I paint my nails red, I get regular laser facials and (who knows since I am pushing the end of my 30s) I might decide I need more help eventually.
Since I regularly dye my hair back I also need to tint and shape my eyebrows to match. I remember when my eyebrow tinting obsession started. It is the one cheap thing that you can do that can totally change the way you look. I even persuaded my mum to start tinting and shaping hers. I can't remember when I started; I just know that every three or four weeks I had an automatic appointment. Yes had. Now I have my eyebrows feathered.
I had been thinking about getting eyebrow feathering ages ago, but I was worried about choosing the right person to feather mine. I was also worried it might hurt. Plus when I was looking at doing it years ago, it wasn't as popular and the inks weren't as advanced. There were just too many nightmare stories.
It was actually an offer from another business when I was running Fashion Blender that got me thinking about it again. No I didn't want free or cheap feathering. I wanted it done right first time around by a business that has ONLY 5 star reviews. This is your face we are talking about people!
I ended up choosing Kristin Fisher as I had seen some of the bloggers I knew using her. I went and had an initial consult and I felt comfortable with Kristin.
The initial consult was a brow tint and shape. We also discussed what sort of look I wanted. Kristin noted that my left eyebrow was my problem brow. It has always been holy. I just wanted to enhance my natural brow and reduce the amount of time that I spent on filling in my eyebrows every morning. We settled on deep brown ink; because even though I dye my hair black, black ink would be too dark for my fair skin. I paid my deposit and went away with a check list that I needed to follow for at least two weeks before. No Vitamin E tablets and no tretinoin application. Plus I wasn't allowed to spray tan 72 hours before the procedure. Don't worry Kristin, no fear of spray tan with me. Kristin is booked out for months, so I think I managed to secure an appointment with a two month wait only because they had a cancellation.
When the day arrived I was pretty nervous. I don't often drink alcohol but I made sure I hadn't had any all week. Kristin didn't tint my brows, however she mentioned she sometimes tints before feathering. She used a ruler, pencil and a clear sticky template to mark up my brows before we started. I didn't want thick thick brows - but it was a shock to see the outline so large. Kristin assured me she would be feathering within the outline so they wouldn't be as thick as I thought.
After I was lying down Kristin used a tool to prick my eyebrows all over within her guide. This didn't really hurt, it was less painful than an injection. Then she wiped numbing cream all over my brows and let it sit for a while. When we was ready to start, my brows weren't very numb. However they became more numb as she worked. Kristin did one brow after the other and followed up with touch ups on both. She used a tool with a row of needles to create tiny incisions in my skin and then wiped the dye over the area. By the second pass on the first eyebrow my brow area was numb enough for it not to hurt. However I did still hear the scraping of the needles. Which is kind of off-putting I must admit. Check out the left photo below - this was after the first initial feathering appointment. You can see the tiny strokes in my brow; they are most obvious towards my nose.
I really liked the look of them initially. However all I could think about was getting home and relaxing because I was sweating and sore! I bled a little bit apparently. And fair skinned people who bleed tend to make the dye change colour. So I would probably need a tint colour adjustment during my touch up appointment...
For the next 10 days I wasn't allowed to have any facial procedures done, I had to avoid washing my face for a whole week and I couldn't go swimming. For the first couple of days you need to avoid wearing makeup so that you don't change the colour of the dye. I spent the period washing my hair upside down in the bath. Which wasn't comfortable let me tell you. I also couldn't use AHAs nor have laser or peels for two weeks afterwards. I also needed to apply Bepanthen cream three or four times daily. I cracked with the face washing on the 6th day... I needed to have a shower and wash my face properly.
My brows went really dark on the third day and I actually wondered whether I had made a mistake. But after about a week I started flaking and then by the week and a half mark my brows were settled and looked great. It's amazing how quickly you get used to something new.
When I went back for my touch up appointment last week, Kristin said my brows had healed really well however they weren't the right colour. We spoke about adjusting the colour. She tinted my brows first this time and it was amazing how much of a difference this made. I didn't tint them in between because I wanted her to see them naturally so she could do her best work!
The fill in appointment went exactly the same as the initial appointment however since I knew what was coming it hurt a lot less. Kristin only did one pass and a few touch ups. We didn't go any thicker we just refined. You can see me during the touch up appointment in the above photo on the right. Your eyes water quite a bit - so my mascara has migrated in this one. Plus I am red and blotchy as I my veins are close to the surface of my skin. Hence the bleeding. Check out the video below which was taken right after the fill in appointment. Do you like my hair net mark?
Eyebrow feathering hurts initially and the fact that you can't wash your face nor wear makeup at the start is a big turn off for me. But is it worth it? It totally is. I have had so many compliments since I got my brows done. Plus I don't need to apply any products to my brows at all now if I don't want to. They are truely minimal fuss now. The price tag is another turn off - the initial consult was $100 and the feathering cost $1000AUD. Which included the touch up appointment. However you really can't put a price tag on something that when done correctly makes you feel better about yourself now can you?
I am told eyebrow feathering is dead and now freckle tattooing is in. This is totally weird to me since I spend money to get rid of my freckles...
Have you had eyebrow feathering? Where did you get yours done? Comment at the end of the post!
