Thick eyebrows and how to get them for the best look

Having thick, bushy, or full and well-defined eyebrows is the ideal for many women. 
Apparently, this style is here to stay, either predominantly or coexisting with new fashions.

Of course, there are different types of thick eyebrows. It’s clear that eyebrows like Frida Kahlo’s are not the same as the careful brows of Audrey Hepburn. And in the present day, we can provide examples of celebrities like Dua Lipa, Lily Collins or Cara Delevingne, with big fluffy eyebrows without hard edges. There are several renowned fashion houses that continue to opt for this style that seeks a more natural look, although others like Alberta Ferretti, Balmain, and Versace prefer fine shapes. The trends then focus on thick eyebrows, both with natural finishes and bolder designs.

There are many women who want to have thick eyebrows and enjoy a natural appearance, which means well-filled bases, longer tails, and diffused finishes in the corners. Not too long ago, brows were exaggerated, feathered, or windblown, but these days the trend is a softer, more sculpted look.

Today we’re sharing some tips for how to wear thick eyebrows for the best look.

For this style, what you should do is let your eyebrows grow—and of course, not pluck them. So if you were planning to use your eyebrow tweezers for this, forget it. You have to be patient and consistent to achieve thick eyebrows, since it takes time. Don’t worry for the first few weeks because they will look uneven and you will want to put them in order, but don’t be tempted.

Experts recommend waiting at least 5 weeks without waxing to be able to work on a design according to the proportions of your face, and that is what many professionals ask of their clients in their salons.

In many cases, famous makeup brands offer stimulating ingredients to speed up this process, and products that promote eyebrow growth are currently trending. These can range from pencils to serums that promote eyebrow and eyelash growth. 

Naturally, while you grow or maintain them, you can also do the following: 

Extend the length

If you want to get thicker eyebrows, make them longer and take the tail higher than its natural position. Sometimes when painting the brows, the arch is brought down, but if you lengthen and straighten their shape a bit and slightly bring the length to the temples, you can lift the face and give it a more natural look.

Extiende el largo

Brush upward

We’re looking for a super natural, fluffy look. There aren’t many products that can really make your brows look like feathers, but you can find a gel for this. Brow gels offer a lot of flexibility for the hairs while keeping them in place.

Brow gel holds brows in place and gives the effect of laminated brows. This is a big trend in the U.S. and the U.K. It is recommended to comb the brows down with the side of a brush to help shape each hair, and then comb up. Brushing upwards will make your brows look fuller.

Change your tools

Many times, it’s better to use an eyebrow pencil in certain areas if your eyebrows are not very bushy. With these pencils you can draw each hair line by line to imitate the shape of a real brow. You can also apply an ointment that will help the product set and help you feel more secure in wearing it all day.

Fullness

Llevar unas cejas completas y esponjosas no quiere decir que estas deban estar desalineadas. Sabemos que las cejas quizá no deben dar un aspecto de total definición, pero sí pueden estar contenidas dentro de un marco delimitado para acentuar tu mirada (acuérdate: mejor como Audrey Hepburn). 

Long endings

Another way to keep the eyebrows looking healthy and natural is to let the hair grow towards the ends in a strong way. The edges should be extremely soft, but the finish is also prominently thick and rich. This helps us transform a tired look into an awake one.

Fuzzy Borders

The edges should be diffused mainly at the beginning of the eyebrows, with hairs a little tucked in towards between the eyebrows on each side, feathered style brows. Models like those on the catwalks for Louis Vuitton, Giambattista Valli and Nina Ricci use this detail.


Just as the eyebrows are the frame of our gaze, the hair is the frame of our face and, in a way, of our personality. If you want to know about the latest trends in haircuts, do not miss the article on this topic in the Fashion section of this blog.
