Compasses leonardo

The use of Leonardo’s compass for eyebrows is recommended for beginners because this method of marking is more convenient than using a flexible ruler.
HOW TO WORK WITH THE CIRCULE LEONARDO
In order to maximally symmetrically build the correct lines with a Leonardo compass, it is important to know how to use compasses to apply the markup. The marking with a compass is applied in the supine position.
The construction of the sketch begins with the definition of the center point – “reference point”. To do this, between the eyebrows, slightly above the nose bridge, it is necessary to determine the center of the forehead and mark this point with a vertical line. The nose cannot serve as a guideline for a symmetrical construction, since for many people there is a slight deformation of the nose, which, although not striking, will affect the symmetry during correction.
The second point needed to build is the eyebrow start point. In order to determine its location, a Leonardo compass is taken, and the ends defining the long distances are placed on the tear ducts. The resulting small distance shows the distance between the eyebrows. At the location of marking the beginning of the points are drawn lines.
The third point is the end of the eyebrow, its “tail”. To determine it, the compass is applied as a ruler — from the point of the edge of the nose (in the place where it contacts the cheek) through the point of the edge of the eye to the end of the eyebrow. In the places of the third point a vertical line is also drawn. The fourth important point is the highest point. It is necessary to determine this point regardless of the bend shape chosen by the client (this point can be either pronounced, “angle”, or smoothed, almost imperceptible). To determine this point, the extreme legs of the compass are placed on the end and the beginning of the eyebrow. In this case, the middle leg of the compass should be directed towards the temple, and not towards the forehead. The location of the middle leg and will be the highest point.
After applying these points, the width of the eyebrows is determined and the upper and lower lines are corrected. To do this, connect all the planned points. The result should be a clear outline, with which the master will continue to work. In the process, points are applied simultaneously on each half of the face.
How well the marking is applied should be checked in a sitting position. Symmetry check is performed using a compass – the distance of each eyebrow from the highest point to its beginning and end must be the same. It is also important to check whether the center point is correctly marked (the distance from this point to the beginning of the eyebrow on both sides should be the same).
Eyebrows should lie on one line. To check the compass is used as a ruler, which is placed between the lower starting points
