Also known as eyebrows

An eyebrow is an area of short hairs above each eye that follows the shape of the lower margin of the brow ridges of some mammals. In humans, eyebrows serve two main functions: first, communication through facial expression, and second, prevention of sweat, water, and other debris from falling down into the eye socket. It is relatively common for people to modify their eyebrows by means of hair removal and makeup.

AI overview

An eyebrow is a band of short hairs above each eye that sits along the shape of the brow ridge. In humans, eyebrows serve practical purposes by helping to prevent sweat and debris from entering the eyes, and they also play an important role in communicating emotions through facial expressions.
