Hi Mickey and welcome,
Eyebrows are an adjustment...do you wear glasses? If you want to make it less noticeable you can get frames with clear lenses even if you don't need a prescription. It makes loss of brows less noticeable.
But I also…

I'm still totally paranoid that it will reoccur though but this site has been such a support. I hope that you find it to be a help too.
Take care

But I also know very fair haired/ red headed men who have such naturally light brows they hardly show. I think that the person without brows feels more self conscious and notices it more than the people looking at him/her.
It also helps to wear shirts and outerwear in colors that look best on you and give your skin a healthy appearance. People see the whole package and if you give a really nice first impression overall, few are visually taking in the fact that there are no brows there.
