My brother once shaved his eyebrows off after watching Pink Floyd's The Wall, just to see what it would look like.

He can't have looked that different 'cos it took my Mum a week and a severe telling off, for her to notice what he'd done. It was quite amusing to watch. My mother grabed the front of my brother's shirt to drag him down to her level (to emphasise a point, as it were) and just stopped in her tracks. Then she exploded with "Why ent you got no eyebrows?" at the top of her lungs. She proceeded to berate him for his lack of cranial caterpillars and then she demanded that I tell him why he shouldn't shave them off! It all lost steam when my brother started laughing and my Mum kept losing track of where she was in her diatribe.

Thanks to my inheriting my hair colouration from my Dad, I don't have to shave anyway. The few hairs I have are really pale and they just don't show up against my skin. My Mother was a bit put out about that too, come to think of it, as she has black body hair.

I did shave my legs once, just to see what it was like. I decide that the itching alone was enough to drive me insane, so I didn't do that ever again and thanked the powers that be for my good fortune....
