I need you to tell them to tell the Commission to instruct all 13- to 24-year-old girls to stop plucking their fucking eyebrows.

Atticus, this is not so much a trend as a rite of passage, like experimenting with Sun-In or lemon juice or peroxide in the shampoo and assorted home hair coloring products that compound the problem rather than fix it. Teenage girls have been overplucking their eyebrows since the dawn of time, or at least since the 80s, notwithstanding their mothers' warnings that overplucked eyebrows don't always grow back fully.
But if it makes you feel better, the Commission has already acted -- the current trend is a thicker brow. This, of course, is a very painful thing to face for those girls who didn't listen to their mothers, who were, of course, correct.
