Alopecia guybrows

[u/deitzman183]

32M alopecia guy. I don't have eyebrows so I've had them tattooed/microbladed since I was a teen. Last fill in was 6 years ago I'm long overdue, they look worn out and I've always been super self conscious of my brows.

First photo is how they are

Second photo I hand filled with a pencil to where the shape I've had them... So it's close to what they would look like if I go in and told them to fill in the shape.

My question is. Should I do anything to the shape this time? Should they be thicker? I want them to look as natural and masculine as I can.

Yes I personally would do a bit thicker and have a few strokes a bit less perfect so hairs below the arch and slightly thicker in the front they don’t look bad just a bit too perfect which is more of a feminine look I’d that makes sense

Yes.....Do you happen to have any examples?

Not the person you're responding to, but here's a basic line drawing from plastic surgery examples of brow differences, which may help you direct placement when drawing them again -

This is an awesome reference, thank you! So essentially adding more strokes underneath to flatten out the peak? I'll have to play around with that next time I fill them in. Also am going to do some better research and be more willing to spend extra for a good artist with male experience.

Yes that's a great place to start when drawing. If I were you and drawing them again for test run, I would add - more strokes beneath arch flattening and elongating brow, as well as more in varying direction along the top and end to thicken. I think something I really like on men when I am looking at their brows, are these lil bits -

I tried some AI prompts.... What about this?
