browed

With a forehead

Browed describes having brows of a particular kind, almost always appearing with a modifier: beetle-browed, heavy-browed, low-browed.

The word refers to eyebrows or, less commonly, to the brow as forehead.

It rarely stands alone—you wouldn't call someone simply browed without specifying what kind.
