Why do Japanese women have short and thick eyebrows?

I think it's an aesthetic culture, Japan is a country with late social origins and they have always modeled their culture after China. Historically, Japan condemned the Tang ambassador came to China after the Tang Dynasty, saw the Tang Dynasty generation of empress Wu Zetian's makeup, returned to Japan, will be this makeup to tell the Japanese women, at that time, Japan to China's Great Tang especially revered. Competition to imitate the culture of the Tang Dynasty. Because the Tang Dynasty after the condemnation of the Tang Dynasty, see the court dancers are smeared with white powder makeup on the face, but also painted with large red circles, probably is now the blush. Because there was no light on the stage at that time, in order to be able to be seen clearly so heavy makeup, makeup exaggerated a little.

These condemned Tang ambassador saw thought Chinese women are so dressed, go back to tell the Japanese women, so the Japanese women scrambled to follow suit, and later they have a geisha, although they are also copied from China, but with China is different. In Japan, geisha although there is the word brothel in it, but they do not sell their bodies, and as a geisha's conditions are very harsh, the high cost of learning the art, and not the average family can afford. The cost of learning the art is high and not many families can afford it. Moreover, the process of learning the art is arduous and not all geisha are able to persevere. Geisha need to learn a lot of content, the process is very hard. These include culture, etiquette, language, decoration, poetry, books, the qin and se, until bowing, pouring wine, etc., every move, every word and deed have strict requirements, everywhere reflects the noble and stable. To about 16 years old will be able to formal Geisha
