As a gentleman of a certain age (52) my eyebrows have gone insane over the last couple of years.
I have to groom them with scissors and was thinking of using a clear brow gel to tame them or something.
Does anyone else have this issue? Any tips?

Ask your hairstylist/barber to trim them for you.

Brush up and trim following natural brow arch. Cut out the wiry stragglers.

You're lucky to have full eyebrows. But when they grow long, it can give you that old, disheveled man look.
Just get a small, sharp pair of scissors. The Swiss Army knife scissors are actually good for this kind of stuff.
Pull / stretch the brow hairs away from your face with one hand, cut the hair (with scissors) with the other hand.

If you think they grow unruly between visits to the barber, "multigroom" attachments include ones for eyebrows that work well.

Hi OP. I just use my clippers with one of the guards on it. That’s it.

Go for brow braiding, expensive but worth it.

Visit a brow artist at a Benefit Browbar.

Go to Sally Beauty Supply and get the blunt-tipped brow scissors so you don't poke your eye out while trimming.

It’s the andropause. Your eyebrows kick into overdrive and you have to trim, almost daily. You’ll start growing hair on your ears. The REAL fun starts when hair starts growing on top of your nose. Pull those fuckers out if you have any self-respect.
Enjoy your youth, young gaylings. It’s coming for all of us.

You could get them groomed but that might end badly. You definitely don't want thinned, high arches bitchy looking female brows. Here's my routine:( and we are close in age so I understand your issue)
Every 4-6 weeks --tweeze and obvious strays that grow way too high or low and pluck any random hairs appearing between the brows
--use a toothbrush to brush entire brow upward and use small scissors to trim any absurdly long brow hairs. Nature creates a natural line so it should be obvious what is growing beyond that
-- I also color mine now because there are random grey's I don't like as well as a faded look in general. I use a simple box color and mix up a tiny amount. I put Vaseline all over and around the brow then use a cotton swab to apply the color. Obviously, be very careful. Let it sit about 10 mins then I shower and wash it off.
May sound tedious, but it makes a big difference
