What is the ruling on removing a part of very thick eyebrows, to the extent of disfigurement, given that bleaching is ineffective and makes matters worse? Is this considered namṣ (plucking) that incurs a curse, and what is the permissible limit for removal in this case to achieve an acceptable natural look?
