I’m not saying go all Groucho Marx or anything, but hitting the eyebrow with a few swipes of a brow pencil is usually a good thing. Trying to work in a nice arch helps with “the look” as well.

    It’s not true that you cannot curl fake hair. You just have to curl it with hot water (or steam) and let it dry completely. Then it will be permanently curled.
