no, I've got a little print of it here and I can't make out any eyebrows.

Mona Lisa has no visible facial hair—including eyebrows and eyelashes. Some researchers claim that it was common at this time for genteel women to pluck them out, since they were considered to be unsightly. For modern viewers the missing eyebrows add to the slightly semi-abstract quality of the face.

I thought the only question anybody would ask about the Mona Lisa is whether she is smiling or not... and if so, what at?
And whether it's any good a painting or not...
But I dont think she does have eyebrows...

Well, to tell you the truth she probably does but you can barely notice them. If you look closely you can't see anything but a little black shadow on top of her eyes. If you want to see for your self go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Mona_Lisa.jpg or go to www.wikipedia.org and type in Mona Lisa and then you can see the picture of it. I think she doesn't have eyebrows.

Believe it or not- this is disgusting but it's an actual fact that the women of that time used cat poo to make their eyebrow hair fall out, and also to make their hairlines higher, because those were considered signs of beauty.

No.
My son didn't either; until around the age he reached puberty - okay - he can't grow a beard - but at least he has eyebrows...
...unlike Whoopie Goldberg! (whose real name is Karen Johnstone)
Am I going off on a tangent here..?

No, the fashion among Italian aristocrats of that time was to have them shaved and crayoned in
