Eyebrows, whether you are male or female, are a pretty big deal. They help provide a definition and frame to your face, which also makes you look normal and more distinguished. In addition to protecting your eyes and making you look beautiful, your eyebrows can give hints about your personality.
While we are aware of how unrealistic this may sound, there is an entire practice of physiognomy, which is a traditional principle, that helps to analyze the personalities of other people based on their physical appearance details like the brow style.
If you are intrigued enough, check out our list below to find out about eyebrow designs that could suit your personality.
Eyebrow Design No. 1: Round Eyebrows
You should go for a curved roundness around for your brows to look more business-like while simultaneously looking warm and kind. It should be interesting to note that even scientists believe that eyebrows that are high on the inner brow are an indication of trustworthiness.
If you are friendly and usually make decisions based on what you and everyone else would want, go circular with that brow next time you have an eyebrow appointment.
Eyebrow Design No. 2: Naturally Bold Eyebrows
In the last couple of years, people have truly embraced their natural brows, and definitely thanks to the likes of Cara Delevingne and Emilia Clarke. Not only does this make you look more assertive but it also gives an impression of self-confidence, decisiveness, and forward-thinking abilities.
One issue you may face is that usually, people tend to avoid communication with women who have bold brows assuming them to be strongly opinionated. But then again, this isn’t really something that you should worry about. If you want a cleaner cut for the edges, we would recommend that you use an eyebrow pencil to give more shape to your natural beauties.
Eyebrow Design No. 3: Peaked Eyebrows
Peaked eyebrows are mostly brows that resemble the letter ‘V’ that have been turned upside down or look mountainous. This eyebrow design would be suitable for you if your personality reflects someone with sharp instincts. Thinking, learning, and reacting is all done fast. Most of the decisions you take don’t really involve a lot of thinking.
Even though your spontaneity may sound like it’s a minus point, it’s your ambition that can help you achieve goals and get things done.
Eyebrow Design No. 4: Thin, Sparse Eyebrows
Human beings are such magnificent creatures, yet what really makes them unique is the physical intricacies that remain exclusive to them. While some of us have thick eyebrows, some have naturally thin ones. However, with a change in fashion, people have started suffering from lower self-confidence when they have thin brows which really shouldn’t be the case.
You can always use some eyebrow makeup to achieve any shape you want, so there is no need to become overly conscious about your eyebrow shape. Moreover, people with thin eyebrows are said to have calm personalities and aren’t too pushy so that’s most certainly a plus.
One thing you do need to do is to stop over-plucking your brows. If you did indulge in over-plucking in your teens, simply massage your eyebrow area with coconut or almond oil to boost circulation. Remember, your brows are gorgeous when they are naturally full and hence, you need to keep your hands off your brows and actually your face.
Eyebrow Design No. 5: Straight Eyebrows
We would advise you to go for a straight brow shape if you want to come off as an intellectual person who makes decisions based on logic and facts, and not emotions. Straight eyebrows can help give a very professional vibe that can be great for workspace. Overall, go with this look if you want to come off more serious and not impulsive.
If you feel that your eyebrows are looking a bit flat, again, you can use makeup to give a little arch. Simply draw your eyebrows like you normally would, but just give a slight arch where you would want one to be.
Eyebrow Design No. 6: Queen’s Eyebrows
Almost as regal as the name sounds, Queen’s eyebrows are naturally higher up your face than the usual above-the-eye area. There are quite a few people who naturally have these eyebrows which actually help them have more dimension near the eye area.
If you are someone who sets high expectations for themselves and prefers to get things done independently, this eyebrows style might be perfect for you. Just like a queen, your manners, stance, and personality are amazing. All hail the queen!
Eyebrow Design No. 7: Non-Matching Eyebrows
Traditionally, eyebrows are supposed to match the hair but who says you can’t take the road less traveled? Go for this eyebrow style if being unique is what you like. The more noticeable your eyebrows look, the more in-charge and noteworthy your personality becomes!
If you are driven, ambitious and don’t like people messing around with you, don’t be afraid to be a bit bold. For example, if you are a natural brunette, you can dye your hair in a shade of platinum blonde or maybe even a fiery red. Trust us when we tell you, anything goes!
Eyebrow Design No. 8: Short Eyebrows
If you like a company that is low maintenance and no drama, you will most probably like shorter eyebrows. You are self-sufficient and don’t need to ask other people to help you.
Eyebrow Design No. 9: Long Eyebrows
Now that we have discussed short eyebrows, it’s only fair to mention long eyebrows. If your role in the group is to be the one who is always strong because extra strength comes naturally to you, this is your style. You can deal with your drama as well as your friends’ personal drama efficiently and tactfully without feeling overwhelmed.
