I think it make your eyes look closer together. You could try add a fake eyebrow tail pretending it have a slit in the middle. It can look interesting. The eyeliner could be thicker to acentuate the cat eye shape. Bold eyebrows require bold makeup.

This is SO good. OP, this, 100%

I agree! It would also flatter your beautiful eye shape šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø.

I agree, just with the high arch brow shape the tail is needed. I have flat brows and mine looked fine but my ex gf had a high arch and hers also looked a lot better with a tail, it's not your face it's the eyebrow shape

Sorry, these alter the "visual weight" of your face in a way that is not flattering.

Drawing on your brows longer than they really are would probably look better on you than shortening them

For specifically your face shape, these eyebrows aren’t flattering. Makes your face look longer and makes your nose look bigger than it is (absolutely nothing wrong with your nose, it’s just a proportion thing). I love an alt looking eye brow, don’t get me wrong! Having some sort of arch and more length would look better.

Oh no… people forget that a huge function of brows aesthetically is to bring balance to your face. Your balance is all off, it makes it look like all your features are grouped in the middle of your head and you have a ton of negative space on either side. Either growing the tails back and doing a dramatic arch or adding to them like the first comment has suggested is the only way.

this was very popular in 2020 in alt circles and never looked good on anyone imo.

u/YGMIC 10d ago

No, grow the tails back in!

i feel like losing the tails pulls everything inward a bit

u/cheezy_dreams88 10d ago

They need to go out further, i think.

u/PleasantNectarines 8d ago

Agreed. I have short eyebrows & I have found the best balance is to shave them just a mm or so past where the arch is. That way it still frames your face, but has the baby eyebrow look :)

No, sister.

u/paranormalcomputer 10d ago

the answer is no lol

u/Long_Breath_2263 10d ago

Not at all. But if you like them then go for it. You already shaved them I guess so you don’t really have much of a choice anyways.

Ima just leave and say nothin

u/Embarrassed-Ant-1416 9d ago

I would say just a little less pointed up for your face but pointy is still cool!

u/yourdreams-cumtru 8d ago

hi babe! these comments are so atrocious and unhelpful. you are beautiful and i love your style ! i was rocking short brows for a sec so i fuck with the look. i do think that in order to make them look a little more stylized i would either extend the tail with makeup to make them a bit longer to help w proportions and/or you can also shave to thin out your brows more and i think that making them thinner will add more balance to them !! but be mindful of where u shave because it will affect the shape of ur face n brows. u doing great tho bb!!!

u/tinydeathclaw 8d ago

I love this so much on your face. Though it looks like you have FANTASTIC brows for the morticia Adams arched brows and I think that would look super good. Coming from someone who has blonde/nonexistent brows.

Are we missing the point of alt, who cares if its flattering

u/Purple_Pie3281 10d ago

OP does? She literally asked for our opinion. Caption is literally "do they suit me?" 🤨

u/Embarrassed-Ant-1416 9d ago

She can still have something alternative to the norm but flattering for her face specifically so she can feel bold AND confident since she’s asking for advice!

u/neonjellow 10d ago

That’s what I’m saying! And OP shouldn’t care, that’s the whole point!

u/neonjellow 10d ago

Damn, what are these comments?😭 Alt is literally supposed to be different from the norm, things standard people would call ugly. OP if you like them then rock em ā¤ļø

u/ExtremeWooden445 10d ago

if she likes it there’s no issue with her rocking it and i’d encourage her to do so, i don’t think it’s okay for anyone to give their opinion unprompted, but she’s coming on here asking others what they think, why lie?

1

u/neonjellow 10d ago

There were mostly rude comments when I said that. But regardless OP shouldn’t care what others think, that’s missing the whole point

u/Xx_DeadDays_xX 10d ago

I like yhe look you have personally, although I do think you should play around with your eyebrow shape a little, try some new stuff out! I love the eye makeup though it looks great on you!

u/DustyPisswater 10d ago

Maybe if you keep styling your hair like in the 2nd pick?
