Do you prefer a higher arch for your eyebrows?  Is it true a higher arch will make you look more awake and youthful?

Or like you've seen a ghost, LOL! 

 

  IMO, this lady's arches are way too high.  I think it's a fine line and wherever your natural arch is, that is the best look for your face frame.  It's a good question for @Shanus but in my experience of having microblading done, they actually measure the dimensions of your facial bone structure to determine the perfect placement.  Especially for people like me who's brows never returned after chemotherapy.

That photo is a bit severe for my liking. I used to have eyebrows like Brooke Shields back in the day, but plucked them thinner in my 20s. I still have enough brow and have a small arch, and I use a brow pencil and pomade to help define it.

I definitely like the more natural look and also when they are more straight across.

I think that unnatural arch looks clownish and doesn't enhance a woman's natural beauty at all.

Some arch at the end is nice too.Danica McKellar, Scott Sveslosky

Danica McKellar a good example.

 

another good one-

In the Asian culture straight brows are considered the standard of beauty, no arch. Mine have no arch and I'm happy with that. They look sort of like this.

I told my friend her eyebrow arches were drawn too high. She looked surprised.

The arch in your pic is a bit severe - in my opinion.  I like a more natural look with a bit of an arch as in a couple of the other pics.  The straight across look is ok - as in Kate's pic - and it works for her because it suits her face shape.

I just have to go with what I've got, unevenly arched brows.  Since I learned how to raise one eyebrow, it's always been the higher brow.

I think they are way too high. It doesn't make her look awake or youthful. I think some old movie stars used to have brows like this. I guess if she likes them then who are we!

Mine look like your top photo.  I've never had an arch, much less that severe/harsh "mad" looking arch in @San Antonio Gal photo.  That photo looks like it's a character on TV.
