Welcome to You Ask Andy

Greg Obaugh, age 10, of Salt Lake City, Utah, for his question:

WHY DO WE HAVE EYEBROWS?

Most people agree that the eyes are the most outstanding features on a person's face. Their color and form draw attention, and they play a most important part in every meeting made between two people.

The eyebrows, beautiful in themselves, help draw further attention to the eyes. They are accent marks for the eyes  almost like underlining words in a letter to give emphasis, eyebrows seem to give the same kind of emphasis for the eyes.

Eyebrows also have a more useful purpose: They protect the eyes from drops of sweat that may form on the forehead. They also act as shields and serve to shade the eyes or. sunny days.
