Not according to the dictionaries. They state explicitly that you can “tear out” (human) hair.

Don´t know how to explain it better, but it´s the “agressive form”. So if some women want to furiously tear their brows out for some reason let´s give it to them if it makes them feel better. 
You should maybe add that you only do that when you leave most of it. If it comes clean off then you shave your moustache.

@Someone This is what I was joking with earlier about women tearing out eyebrows in frustration.
But I don’t think there’s much precision to tearing. You probably just grab a random bunch and pull it out.
It’s the same with paper. If you tear/rip a page out of a book it’s probably all ragged. If you want to cleanly remove a page (or some hair), you don’t want to tear it.
Er, okay. For completion’s sake. ‘You make me want to tear my eyebrows out.’ 
Yes, good point.

You might want to trim it before you shave it. 
My apologies, then @tasse-tee! I’m sure you are more than just physically attractive. (You are on this forum, so we have evidence). Your character and brains might even be your sole quality as far as we can tell and you might be ugl… ok and

That’s the noise I make when someone quotes me making a typo, so I’m hoping I won’t need to do it too often.

I can’t think of a German [edit: word] that describes anything without hurting the person!
I guess that’s why to tear out and tear(s) are the same word.
You need a new hobby!
No, a new blog post about tears.
