What's up with the narcissist's eyebrows?

The no brainer is the smirk that you catch when you are in psychological and emotional distress. You see that you never forget it.

Look, I'm all for identifying a narc but this theory raises a few eyebrows in terms of credibility.

BPD here. People used to think that I am on the autism spectrum because I had a tendency to avoid eye contact. Later on I figured that I do this because I do pick up on microexpressions extremely easily and that I mostly did this with my parents, because I couldn`t stand the lack of empathy in their eyes. Now as an adult my abandonment issues and rejection sensitivity are so bad that I can literally feel my heart sink when I see the slightes hint of disappointment towards me in my mothers eyes. I can literally spot a narcissist a mile away now and one of my biggest fears is that one day I might find out that I´m a narcissist myself and that the few good things I beliefe about myself are just a lie.

Not about brows, but the look the narc gives when you unexpectedly let on that you see through her "secret window" is a chilling experience. The day I basically told her it'd be the last she'd ever see of me was undescribable. A combination of sadness, rage, disgust, shock, self-righteousness...etc. and all with a stare that went right through me. I walked away, and after a very long cry and determination, it was the last time I allowed myself to be supply.

I lost my eyebrows due to an underactive thyroid and it really knocked my confidence and I remember my narcissistic ex used to make nasty jokes to his friends and their wives about my eyebrows. Funnily enough my eyebrows grew back since he left.

Me and my brows are deeply offended by this

My mom's a narcissist but her eyebrows are thinning and she tries to draw them on. I don't think judging people by genetic appearance is a good way to tell if someone's a narcissist...😂

I'm blown away by the number of comments about narc mums. I feel like I've needed you all my whole life! I grew up in a smaller town, in an environment full of enablers, and was the target of my mum's insecurities. I left at 18, and, at 34, am still processing the impact that she's had on my attachment style and interpersonal relationships, and of course my inner voice. Anyway I honestly didn't realise how common it was and how many people out there have had experiences with their mums like this. May we all find peace in our lives 🙏😊

the smirk, the side-eyes, the glares, the raised eyebrows, their entire body language. other people don't pick up on it, but if you know the narcs, you KNOW their body language

The big smile they get when they got a reaction out of you. Then they point the finger, and blame shift you.

Everyone that has beautiful eyebrows is not a narcissist lol 😂

Every horrible person in my life with narc tendencies have had normal eyebrows. Not too thick, not overgroomed. Just regular eyebrows. This includes family members, and partners. I have somewhat distinct eyebrows but I don't do much to them. It's more of my ethnicity.

Immediately runs to shave eyebrows off to avoid being a narcissist

I think dealing with all the gaslighting is more exhausting then anything.

it’s actually spot on! i know someone who is very particular about grooming her eyebrows and is a full blown narcissist. it’s good to know the connection.

I’m not going to let my eyebrows grow wild to prove I’m not a narcissist 🤣 I live a quiet & peaceful life that does not require validation or attention 😆

I would've thought it was either the mouth: the gross little self satisfied smirk or the eyes: dead or scary intense

What's the deal with narcissist's eyebrows? - Jerry Seinfeld

It just dawned on me that narcissists eat your feelings. I had the privilege to go to a 21 day intensive therapy DBT program. A requirement was daily writings about how you feel. I did not know how I felt and needed a list of feelings to pick from. That's what narc abuse does...I didn't even know how I felt.

My ex narc has very dense eyebrows, and she was always concerned about groming her eyebrows. You nailed it..
