ABSTRACT
In this Grooming 101 section of Makeup Artistry for Film and Television, Christine Sciortino provides the on-set makeup artist with a step-by-step tutorial on how to groom men's facial hair. While providing a series of how-to manuals for a clean and equal shave, Sciortino outlines some styles and the different character types they are typically associated with in film and TV. Makeup artists reading this chapter are reminded that grooming a male actor often extends past facial hair to include an actor's eyebrows and nails – but also how continuity in grooming matters just as much as it does with makeup.
