The history of eyebrows is a fascinating look at how fashion evolves.  Think Joan Crawford, think Elizabeth Taylor, then the almost not existing eyebrows of the 20s and 30s.  Then Romans and Egyptian women, with prominent black kohl brows.

Look at this face in photo on right.  She has almost no eyebrows and then imagine this same face with a Brooks Shields eyebrow.  Completely different look.

Not completely sold on that look but the jury is out:
