Ah the menopause. Yes, your eyebrows have probably fallen out because of your wildly see-sawing hormones. (My eyelashes have always fallen out at that time of the month........go figure).

I think I would go for the "drawing them in" option as they may well grow back once your hormones settle down again. I have no idea how long that will take ( how long's a piece of string - type problem ) so I don't know how long you can put up with doing that.

Also, although I have several tattoos, I'd be really nervous about someone tattooing my face! Especially across a bony part (ouch!) and you could really damage the hair folicals. It's also an area of skin that will be changing quite a lot over the next decade. That would affect any tattoo you had. Your 'eyebrows' could end up a very different shape than what they started as!!!!

Oooh! I've just had an idea. Maybe you could get them henna'd on? That way you don't have to draw them on every day, but you're not left with the problems of permanence. Whaddya think?
