[quote=Anonymous]I so identify with OP. My mom volunteered nothing, and it's impossible for a suburban kid to get supplies like a razor (parents had their own bath, from which I was barred). I learned about shaving and eyebrows from that YA book where the girl cuts herself shaving and plucks out all her eyebrows - so of course I was terrified to try. The supplies I did ask for were always so awkward and dated, like ginormous maxi pads and blue eyeshadow. Mom did take me to get my eyebrows done professionally as I was graduating college, and after that just experimented with drugstore makeup based on what I read in magazines... well into my adult years, it's kind of shocking in hindsight that I got a job out of law school. My younger sister taught me to curl my eyelashes: she learned from friends. [/quote]
