A Conversation with Laurel – The Unibrow
Me: “Laurel, when you get older, you’ll probably want to tweeze your brows.”
Laurel: “What?! Why would anybody do that?”
Me: “High fashion. It’s fashionable. Without it, you’ll have a unibrow.”
Laurel: “Unibrows…I think they’re cool.”
Me: “You think they’re cool?”
Laurel: “Yup.”
Me: “Um, well, I’m pretty sure the unibrow is the universal symbol for ‘not cool’ but if you want to start a trend, go right ahead. It worked for Frida Kahlo -- eventually.”
Laurel: “Yeah, I know. And I love Frida Kahlo, so I want to have a unibrow.”
Me: “You think the unibrow had something to do with Frida Kahlo’s talent?”
Laurel: “Maybe.”
