Do You Prefer Thick or Thin Eyebrows?

January 31, 2009

Fab and I are big fans of Camilla Belle, especially because she has bold, thick, and beautiful eyebrows. We love a thicker pair of eyebrows, but I'll admit that slimmer eyebrows can work, too. When it comes to you, do you prefer your brows closer to those of Peter Gallagher or Marlene Dietrich?

everyone is different. I naturally I have thick brows, sometimes I tweez them rather thin but not overyly thin... I find my arch becomes more defined and looks raised like I've just had botox! My eyes look sexier but I always a need pencil and they dont look good when their not coloured in. Sometimes I grow them out and try out the thick look, when I have no make up on it definetly looks better and when I do put my slap i'd say I look a bit more low maintaince and a bit younger... Puppy eye'd. Some women look sexy and stunning with thick brows like Brook Sheilds. So i like them either way but I HATE the look of overly plucked eyebrows that are drawn in higher than where their supposed to be.

Thick, but shaped properly. Really thin ones bug me. ..bugs me even more when people shave them off and draw them in.

Many American women over-pluck their brows. As we age, men's brows tend to become thicker and bushy; women's brows tend to become finer, thinner and shorter from end to end. Notice the brows of women in their mid-fifties and beyond and you'll see what I mean. Excessive plucking when we're young can cause permanent damage to the hair follicles; you might regret it later. Treasure your precious brows. remove the scraggly strays by all means; but leave the basic shape of your arch alone.

It very much depends on the face. Camilla Belle is stunning with her full brows, but other girls may not be able to pull it off. I do think really thin eyebrows look overworked on anyone, so I prefer a more natural thickness.

Love a natural brow. To much plucking is so old fashion. If you have a naturally thin brow work with it or thick tame it to look well kept and natural. I learned to do my own. My friends think I get it done professionally. It took practice getting it right. Now I have the perfect medium brows that match my face.

I prefer natural looking brows that are simply groomed to remove any stray hairs that fall out of the general brow arch. I find really thin, tweezed to an inch of their life, brows to be harsh and unflattering on any face. I also dislike massive eyebrows filled in with brow pencil.

My eyebrows are naturally thick but I like to (and need to) keep them within a medium thick range. They can get quite unruly...

btw, I absolutely hate overly-plucked eyebrows...especially BETWEEN the brow. Some people are clueless! I don't like thin brows at all, i.e. Eva Longoria. I mean, maybe she was born with them, but I think thicker is prettier.

In my opinion thin and very curved eyebrows look stripperish...sorry just my opinion. I love thick and slightly arched brows....

Jessie, there's a difference between "thin" eyebrows and "overplucked" eyebrows. I agree that overplucked looks tacky and awful, but I still think that (almost) anything a thick eyebrow can do, a thinner one can do better.

Somewhere in the middle, not too thick or thin.

I love thick eyebrows, but mine are thin, so it would look ridiculous if I made them thicker :(

i generally leave my brows au naturel. the only thing i do on a regular basis is tweeze the two or three stray annoying hairs. i get compliments on my nice thick brows all the time, people ask me where i get them done, and i just smile. i will, on occasion however, get them properly groomed and shaped. i did this for graduation, family weddings, etc. sometimes a little more shapeliness is nice. but even then they are always kept thick.

i think it's most important to just shape your own eyebrows but i think thicker eyebrows tend to look better.

I was going to say thick, but what I mean by that is natural-looking. Some girls have naturally thin, fair eyebrows and would look funny with fake dark thick ones - in the same way girls with naturally strong brows look weird when over-tweezed.Either way, I'm glad thick eyebrows are back; mine have always been pretty strong (I'm very fair with dark hair) and people would often comment on that when I was in junior school :/ and it wasn't a question of them not being groomed.Also, Camilla Belle is stunning.
