eyebrow

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'one on face' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both body parts as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'i heard it's black line' is the wordplay.
'heard' shows a homophone (sound like).
'it's black' becomes 'b' (as in pencil classifications).
'line' becomes 'row' (row is a kind of line).
'i' sounds like 'eye'.
'eye'+'b'+'row'='EYEBROW'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for eyebrow that I've seen before include "It's lifted in surprise" , "this might be raised in surprise" , "something going up doubtfully" , "It may be raised" , "Arch of hair" .)
