Default Broaden Forehead by Plucking Hairline?

Would it be a crazy or bad idea to try broadening my narrow forehead by plucking my hairline? I know I've heard of people doing this but I haven't heard about whether it's a terrible idea or not. It seems like it would be really noticeable when it grew back in? Has anyone had any experience with this?

People used to do that in the far past(Like 1200 past), because high foreheads were considered attractive and fashionable. I haven't heard of anyone doing it now.. But I'm not sure. I might look bad if the roots start growing in, and you can't pluck them because their too short. But I really have no idea.. So.. Free bump!

I really would not there are so many things that could go wrong and also look very strange. Just remember the first place as we get older that we start loosing hair is the hairline.
Your hairline actually helps shape your face and I am not certain why you would want to broaden it. It is not natural looking.
I know that I am not you and you have your reasons but I will bet you if I saw a picture of you that your hairline is fine. We all dwell on parts of our face or body that we think should look better, half the time it doesn't help.
Love yourself the way you are. This is just my opinion and others may feel different. Welcome to the forums nice to have you on board.

Anchal had it done on season 7 of America's Next Top Model. I think they used the threading method.

I saw that episode of America's Next Top Model too. The threading looked very painful. I think Marilyn Monroe had something similar done.

If you really want to do this, then you should get it done professionally. I wouldn't advise doing it on your own. There's too many risks involved. I'm assuming beauty salons and spas are the most acquainted with it.

Judi makes an excellent point also.
