Vanessa Van Edwards explains that an eyebrow raise signals genuine interest and curiosity. When someone raises their eyebrows, they're literally opening their eyes wider to see more, which means they're hooked on what you're saying. You can use the gesture yourself to show you're engaged.
Eyebrows are actually really important. They're a secret kind of gesture that people don't notice. This is one you should definitely know how to spot. When someone is curious or they're interested or they're engaged, they cannot help but go, that's super curious, super engaged. If you're in the bar and you see someone go, it's a good sign. It's something good. It's the same thing in business or when you're talking to someone. When you say something interesting, people will often. Huh? Really? You almost always see an eyebrow raise partnered with an aha. Oh, that's interesting how great that is. Because when something's interesting, we want to see better. When we want to see something better, we want to raise our eyebrows and open our eyelids as much as possible. So when we like something, we want to see more of it, and then we raise our eyebrows. Two things for you with any positive watch out for an eyebrow raise. You just hooked someone in. And second, give people eyebrow raises if you're interested.
