2$\begingroup$ should eyebrow be always visible in front of everything else, or only in front of the hair? $\endgroup$– m.arditoNov 8 '17 at 12:18

Here is how to do it with render layers and compositor :
Set Suzanne, Eyebrows, and hair on 3 different layers.
Create 3 render layers with these different objects on them (here a single example, just do the same for the others) :
Then you do to the compositor, press "use node", and set up the following nodes :
Also, don't forget to set the film transparency :
Then, select all the involved layers, and render your scene.

$\begingroup$ Although technically correct, shadows of the eyebrows are missing, right? Seems to me that the question is pointless (in an aesthetic sense). $\endgroup$ Nov 8 '17 at 22:28

$\begingroup$ I think all the shadows are here since I did not Chek any layers in the exclude section of my render layers. I do not have the file anymore and am away from my computer anyway. $\endgroup$– MaxxNov 8 '17 at 23:42
