How to Get Hunter Eyes Naturally (Full Guide)

Key wellness / self-improvement strategies from the subtitles (for “Hunter eyes”)

• Set realistic expectations

  • You can’t change genetics, so results may be limited by your natural bone structure and facial anatomy.

• Avoid harmful “bone smashing”

  • The video explicitly does not recommend using hard objects (rocks/hammers) to cause micro-damage to facial bones.
  • It cites Wolff’s Law (micro-damage → callus/growth), but warns against the risks, including:
    • Injury
    • Blindness
    • Broken facial bones

• Use the “mewing” approach (youth-focused)

  • If you’re under age 25, the speaker recommends starting “mewing,” based on an orthodontic theory:
    • Tongue posture: keep your tongue pressed to the roof of your mouth continuously.
    • Goal: encourage forward + upward maxilla growth, improving orbital support and facial structure.
    • Breathing + posture: nose breathing and proper tongue engagement are presented as part of the method.
  • Timing matters: the speaker claims facial structure becomes less changeable as you get older.

• Support jaw development via chewing (masseter muscle)

  • Chewing gum is suggested to build masseter muscle, improving jawline appearance.
  • The speaker promotes their own harder-than-normal gum as a “workout” for jaw muscles.

• Practice relaxed facial expressions

  • For more hooded/“predator” eye appearance, the speaker suggests:
    • Keep eyebrows relaxed / pushed down (avoid “mean mugging” or permanently raised brows).
  • The claim is that, if you have enough eyelid skin, this may allow eyelid skin to compress/fold more.

• Eyebrow/eyelid training exercises

  • Squint + relax intermittently to help shift how the eyelids fold.
  • The speaker claims people can train facial control, such as learning to relax an expression more.

• “Eyelid pulling” (caution strongly advised)

  • A technique mentioned as a possibility:
    • Lightly tug eyelids with fingers to increase elasticity and make more eyelid available to fold.
  • The speaker admits they haven’t tried it, haven’t researched it, and provides discretion/warning.

• Consider surgical options only when appropriate

  • The speaker notes limited surgical options for “hooded eyes,” but mentions:
    • Almond eye surgery to reduce eyelid exposure.
    • Brow ridge filler if the brow ridge is flat, potentially pulling skin forward to improve eyelid appearance.
