If there’s one thing you learn by reading BME every day, it’s that the human body is incredibly, impossibly resilient. We feature body rites and experiments with pain that some people find cringe-worthy, but the lesson, more often than not? Our bodies work very hard to take care of us, and even things that, by all accounts, seem dangerous or ill-advised, can heal perfectly well.
This is not to pass judgment on the skin removal we’re seeing here, but it’s an example of a procedure that, probably more than a lot of body modification procedures, would seem unnecessary and dangerous to the average the person. To hear the young man who had it done tell it, even the practitioner, Shawn O’Hare of Fillmore Tattoo and Piercing, was apprehensive at first:
I wanted both of my eyebrows removed for quite a while. Shawn kept refusing. Eventually after talking to Steve Haworth, he decided he would do it. We decided to do one now and one after this one has completely healed. We discussed all of the possible scenarios and risks and then went ahead with the procedure. It was pretty cut and dry. He peeled my eyebrow off and we bandaged it up.
At the very least, it’ll be very interesting to see the healing process on this piece. More shots, after the jump.

Dear “..”
Tell me what is going on in that forum that is so inflammatory, because it seems to me that it’s simply people that have come across my forum getting a kick out of a tongue in cheek joke that mentions no names, links to no web pages (aside from a wiki article on scalping), and exclaims couple of cheap lulz. If I wanted to make a public joke of Shawn, aside from those that I’ve already made and those he has made of himself, I would have made that post here on Modblog so that people that aren’t members of IAM could get the same laugh.
Homeslice, I’m afraid that linking to that forum has done nothing more than let a few more people know that I can have an opportunistic sense of humor about things.
You call it pathetic, I, as well as those who have posted in there included Shawn himself, call it a good belly laugh. Sorry you didn’t get it. I’ll try better next time.

The thing I love about this is that Shawn O chose the most “extreme” or “odd” piercing in Cameron’s portfolio and said that it was the “best thing he got”. I thought the key to being a good piercer was having well healed, well placed piercings? I’m pretty sure Cameron has a bunch of those in his portfolio.

The main function of the eyebrow is to prevent moisture, mostly salty sweat and rain, from flowing into the eye, an organ critical to sight. The typical curved shape of the eyebrow (with a slant on the side) and the direction in which eyebrow hairs are pointed, make sure that moisture has a tendency to flow sideways around the eyes, along the side of the head and along the nose. The slightly protruding brow ridges of modern humans could also still play a supporting role in this process. Together with the brow ridges, the eyebrows also shade the eyes from sunlight.
Eyebrows also prevent debris such as dandruff and other small objects from falling into the eyes, as well as providing a more sensitive sense for detecting objects being near the eye, like small insects.
Eyebrows also have an important facilitative function in communication, strengthening expressions like surprise or anger.
So many people lose their eyebrows for health reasons, and this did cuts his off…. kids these days… I wonder if he will be more prone to eye infections now…

Eyebrows are not only for the stuff mentioned in 224, but an important communication device. Whenever you meet someone you know, you will do an involuntary “eyebrow flash”, a quick raising of the eyebrows in recognition of them. Don’t believe me – check it out next time you say hi to a friend.
That’s why people with no eyebrows look so strange – they give out no “recognition signals” I don’t know how this is going to affect Brandon’s social life but kudos for trying something new.
