The team behind model-actress Cara Delevingne's wax model spent a week making sure the figure's eyebrows matched her statement brows to the individual hair.
Sculptor Jim Kempton has revealed the intricate process that went into creating the 23-year-old beauty's statement brows, reported Female First.
"The main mass of the hair and the direction are absolutely critical, so in recreating them we faithfully copied them hair by hair. Our hair and makeup department painstakingly inserted every hair one by one.
"We have to make sure the hair we are inserting is real and the root is inserted, rather than the tip. Even if you have it in the wrong way then the lie of the hair wouldn't sit right, so it's such a detailed process. If one eyebrow hair is out of place it's not going to look exactly like her."
Kempton also revealed that the team took over 100 measurements of the head to make sure the wax model they created was as true-to-life as possible.
