think about this.. when hair grows naturally, the point on the end of the
hair is tapered.
and if u cut this hair then the hair's point is going to be square, not
tapered @ all.
so maybe this has something to do with hair being thicker if it is not
allowed to fall out naturally (but is cut instead).
i assume that hair falls out naturally because otherwise my eyebrows would
be as long as my hair. but my eyebrow hairs fall out gradually and they are
all tapered.

so my sugestion is that you let the eyebrows grow back, maybe they will look
thicker temporarily, but after some time the hairs will start to fall out
and be replaced with fresh tapered hairs.
