Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
Does it take awhile to get used to big eyebrows on your face if you're used to thin ones? Can some people just not wear bigger eyebrows and look right?
I've gotten my makeup done by at least 4 professional makeup artists, and they ALL give me big drawn-on eyebrows. They all swear the eyebrows they drew on look great, but IMO, they look horrible and make me look mad. 2 of the people have been MAC MUA's, too, and I figured they'd know what they were doing. I really like the look of thicker eyebrows, as I'm getting tired of my pencil thin ones! Perhaps I just have to get used to bigger eyebrows? Or maybe I can't wear them b/c of my specific facial features?
Lemme know what you think. Hopefully these photo attachments will work.

Re: Big eyebrows
I can't see your photos, but I am a fan of bigger brows. I know that they are more in style now than they were previously. Maybe the makeup artists were just keeping up with the trends.
I'll let you know more when I look at your pics.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
Yeah, that's true...I figured they're all trained pretty much the same way, but I would think they'd alter things to fit the client. Then again, maybe I'm being overly self conscious. I should take a pic after they do my brows and post for comparison.
Oh yeah, on another note, if anyone knows any sites online where I could get printable eyebrow stencils, links would be greatly appreciated!

shit i wax mine off and draw them on i love skinny eyebrows.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
You're very pretty, and the skinny eyebrows look good on you but I'd have to see a pic of you with big eyebrows before I gave a definite opinion.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
if i were you i would just pencil them in a bit darker at the size you have now, and just add a small line to the top of the one you already have and build on that seeing how thick you would like to go. i bet you can find eyebrow tutorials on youtube.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
I'm a big fan of bigger eyebrows, too. I just wouldn't look like myself if I had teeny 'lines' over my eyes. I look at my older pics from like 10 years ago when I had skinny eyebrows and I cringe, LOL.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
I think you'd look much better with normal looking eyebrows. You're very pretty and I think having natural eyebrows will really accentuate your features.
ETA: by natural, I mean just plucked or waxed to shape them to be bigger than what they are now.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
Well, I can see from the contact lenses and the lip liner that you aren't shooting for a "natural" look. Just tell the make-up artist that you want skinny brows. Go with what ever you feel most comfortable with.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
The brows in these photos seem extremely thin to me. That sort of half-circle look, I don't know, it's just a little off. I would go to a good salon and find a waxer/stylist to give you some advice.
But ultimately it's your face and look and you should do what makes you happy.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
You are very, very pretty. To me, the eyebrows in the pics look unnaturally thin. Like how the gangsta girls do it...the sharpie pen look..er sorry. I'd grow them in and let them look more natural if I were you. I think it would make you look so much softer and prettier.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
Hahahha some of the comments are funny. Yeah, I def like the more "fake look," but I do want thicker eyebrows. I guess I'll slowwwly start to make them bigger, so it won't be such a shock. (I swear I felt like Oscar the Grouch the last time someone put my eyebrows on.) Thanks for all of your opinions/advice!

I like them better in the first photo, and I think they would look better a little thicker. You have such a pretty face, they'll look beautiful either way.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
I think they look way too thin right now. I think it'd look better if they had more of a natural shape and atleast double the current thickness.

I agree. And if you can, find an Indian woman for threading. They are the BEST IMO.

You're super freaking hot, but I think that having sliiiiightly thicker eyebrows would look nice. Maybe just let them grow in a bit and then pluck the stray hairs but leave a few extra and wait for them to grow in the same length as your current ones, and then go see someone to fix them up for you.

In addition to thicker brows, I think a defined arch would be much more flattering on you... They're too round. Also, it looks to me as if you completely remove your natural brow and draw them in about 1/2" higher... there's no tactful way to phrase this, you look constantly surprised.
You are a lovely woman. Your brows are doing you no justice.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
I used to tweeze way too much of my eyebrows and couldn't imagine growing them to be thick. Then when I was forced to, I got used to it and love it and now hate to look at my pictures of my skinny eyebrow days, lol.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
I agree that they would look better if they were bigger. You are gorgeous and the thin eyebrows imo don't flatter all your beautiful features as well as thicker ones would.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
More eyebrow! You're pretty, but the thin is not good. They're also too high, imo. Lower, thicker, less semi-circle = better.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
Its always a bit of a shock to change something on your body, but you get used to it. I think you should do your brows thicker and give yourself some time to get used to it.

Re: Big eyebrows - PICS NOW ATTACHED FINALLY
i recommend threading too, it works great
