Hey Jamie,
I had this problem exactly one week ago. I had been agonizing over my eyebrows for like, a year, and I finally decided to take action before school. What I did was I got myself really worked up and sad about it. I started crying. My brother saw me crying and asked what's wrong, and after a while, I told him I hated my eyebrows. He replied to just get them waxed at a salon or something. He thought it was ridiculous and called my mom in. He told her that I was crying like a fool because of my eyebrows. My brother related to my mom that I could just get them shaped at a salon or something. My mom was like, whatever. So I did a little research, went to a nearby salon, scheduled an appointment, and voila! I have professionally shaped eyebrows now :)
If she sees you're really upset about it, your mom will probably let you. Good luck!
*DO get them professionally shaped, because beauticians know what they're doing. Also, if you do them yourself, they may be uneven or too thin.

Just tell her that someone made fun of you about your "unibrow" looking eyebrows, and that you need to take care of it. Okay maybe you shouldn't lie to her, but that's one way. The best way to do it is just simply say, "Mom, I think it's time for me to pluck my eyebrows. What do you think about it?" Don't worry about what she says. After all, the worst she could say is no right? Just go for it.

It's your body, your face. Do what you like. Just realize... Eyebrows don't grow back very fast, and sometimes not at all. If I were you, I'd get it professionally done at a salon first, just to get a good shape. Doesn't cost much, 20 bucks or so.

if its ur 1st time doing that you should go sum where to get them done. that way you dont screw up your eyebrows and if its your 1st time then it will look good b/c its natural. It only costs the most $ 7-10.

Ask her to help you. Mothers live for these things, trust me. Especially if you are the oldest or only daughter. (I'm assuming you are a girl)

I would simply ask her that you want your eyebrows to be shaped up to enhance your features.

Mum, did you read that newspaper report that eyebrow hairs give you cancer? No? Well, it's true. So uh... you don't want me to get cancer do you?
