Studies Reveal This Facial Feature Can Help Identify a Narcissist

Eyebrows as Indicators of Narcissism

It sounds a bit unusual, but studies indicate that eyebrows can reveal narcissistic tendencies. A study from the University of Toronto found that people with “distinctive eyebrows” were more likely to show traits of narcissistic personality disorder. Researchers photographed 40 undergraduate students with neutral expressions and assessed their narcissistic traits using the Narcissistic Personality Inventory. These photos were then shown to other students who were asked to gauge the perceived narcissism of each individual.Image 1

What Makes Eyebrows a Clue?

The connection between eyebrows and narcissism isn’t entirely clear yet. One popular theory is that narcissists, who often focus intensely on their appearance, may take extra care to groom their eyebrows meticulously. Since eyebrows play a significant role in how we perceive facial attractiveness and recognition, narcissists might give them special attention to boost their allure.Image 2

Another Facial Sign of Narcissism

Further studies have shown that narcissists also exhibit specific facial reactions when they face failure or criticism. They might display subtle, almost involuntary muscle twitches in their eyes and forehead. If you criticize them or point out a minor error, such as a mistake in a story or an incorrect coffee order, you might notice these small, twitch-like movements. These reactions are often subtle, so you need to pay close attention to spot them.

So, What Is a Narcissist?

A narcissist is someone overly focused on their own needs and desires, often disregarding others. These individuals are typically manipulative, deceitful, and exploitative. They tend to be selfish and lack empathy, frequently using others to meet their own goals. While they can be very charming and charismatic, they usually remain self-absorbed and indifferent to the feelings of others.
