How to Arch Eyebrows Using Sticks
Correctly arched eyebrows frame the face in the most appealing way. Eyebrow shape and thickness depend on the type of face you have. According to Beauty-Advices.com, Arch-shaped eyebrows are flattering on most women because they open the eyes and balance a wide nose or large mouth. The arch should be elevated for a high forehead but the arch should be as low as possible for a low forehead. Use sticks to determine the perfect arch shape for your eyebrows. Does this Spark an idea?

This should be the beginning of your eyebrow, according to The South Africa TV Authority's Glamour School on Back to Basics.
