Facial/ body hair

    Many times in films and theatre we make-up artists have to create facial or body hair on their models or characters. You can do it easy and perfectly suitable for that particular model. It is true though that if for example in the theatre the same actor has to change character at a certain point, and has to take off that exact piece of hair, then is more convenient to use an actual hairpiece that he/she can take off , rather than to use this method:

Products:

  • Blusher brush(preferably use and old one or at least one you don't really use)
  • Spirit gum stick
  • Crepe hair
  • Spatula
How to: 

  • In a bowl or a box cut some hair frome the crepe hair. Cut small bits as it is easier to work with. You can even use more colours, also because the real hair is not all of the same shade
  • Using your spatula, take so Spirit gum and put it on the back of your hand and warm it up a bit, "playing" with it on the back of your hand
  • Take a small amount from the back of your hand and apply it where you want on the model's body/face.
  • Whith your brush take a small amount of the hair you have cut and apply it on the part of the body/face ,where the sturit gum was applyed.
  • Let it dry.
