By day two, I notice a few of my favorite brow hairs (the ones that really make my brows look thick and arched) are gone. And by day four, almost all of my brow-to-skin hairs are missing. As each hair lands in the sink, I feel a twinge of sadness. And as I watch the hairs circle the drain, I feel like I'm flushing dead goldfish -- like a tiny funeral. (Yes, I really, really, really loved my fake eyebrows.)

Once the outermost hairs fall off, the magic is over. Sure, my brows still look fuller and darker, and some of the holes are filled it, but they're skinny again. I stop using the special wash. The bloom is off the rose.

Eyebrow extensions cost anywhere from $50 to $250 depending on how many hairs you need and how long the procedure takes. While the results can last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, mine were gone much too soon -- and I took good care of them.

Still, I really loved my eyebrow extensions for the first couple days. So if I were getting married or having headshots taken, I would definitely get them again. They're not going to be part of my regular beauty routine, but they were amazing for a short time -- and they made me more determined than ever to get my own brows growing again.

On to the next brow serum.
