There is a whole science of eyebrow shape to face type. Not to mention the fashion for natural, wide brows or a “string” - different forms have the right to exist, otherwise it would be just boring to live.

For those who have firmly decided to make a stencil for eyebrows at home, here is the following list:

• Plastic base. You can purchase a thick transparent folder in the clerical department; or you can give a second life to a large plastic bottle or food container;

• Needle, thread;
• Belts or braid, elastic;
• Lock fastener or flypaper;
• "Pattern" - that is, the pattern of your eyebrow, its ideal shape.

Consider the step by step instruction:

1. First, we mark the center of the forehead (you can use a tape measure or a ruler to be exact), as well as the center of the strip-base for our template.
2. We mark on the mask the point of beginning of the eyebrow (at the eye), its highest point, and then we connect these two points with a line. This is a very important guide for work, and you can get useful eyebrow stencils with your own hands only if these guidelines are correctly marked. After all, we select templates on the upper border. They can be independently found and printed out from the net– good, there is enough variety there.

So, the sequence of actions:

1. Print the appropriate picture, put it under the transparent rectangle and circle the marker.
2. Then cut the windows with a stationery knife, very carefully, without burrs and protruding edges - because the plastic will touch your face.
3. The next stage, as our instruction says, is to make fastenings. Cut the plastic at the edges, insert the braid and tie (we sew it — as you like). We try on to find out how far from the face there will be velcro or a lock. Then we sew (glue) them to the straps.

Ready stencils: prices and reviews

If you are not set up to “reinvent the wheel”, but are ready to spend money and let the professionals do their work, then you have whole lines of eyebrow care from famous brands.

• For example, Avon, a democratic company that won the love of our ladies with small prices and bright catalogs, offers to buy a set of stencils "Design Creation", the cost of which is just over 100 rubles. Reviews of stencils for eyebrows of this manufacturer are ambiguous. Someone is sure that for little money there will be no sense (justifying the lack of dexterity and dexterity with the low quality of the product). Others are delighted with the packaging, detailed instructions, compact packaging - those who have come up with at least one of the proposed forms. But, as a serious disadvantage, it is worth noting the lack of auxiliary marking, without which it is so difficult to achieve symmetry when dyeing and removing excess hair.
• Those who like to make inexpensive gifts to themselves, as well as fans of low-cost experiments, we offer to look at Aliexpress, where their price starts from almost 20 rubles. per set (and frankly, it looks like the real cost of a piece of plastic with a couple of three strokes painted). The reviews about these democratic helpers are not bad, they are not much worse than their more expensive ones to congregate of “noble” origin.

Conclusion: we are looking for a cheaper template, but with markup, and we fill our hand. Or we make stencils independently. The main thing is systematic training, and then (in a couple of weeks) you will have symmetrical brows of exactly the form you dreamed of.
