Then fixed on the basis of a circle of flagella, with the top in several places pinned bandana.

Regardless of the costume, you will need to use a contour pencil to paint your eyes, beard and mustache on your Jack Sparrow. If there is a desire, use the purchased "vegetation" for the face. You can also tie your head with a black ribbon with sewn pigtails, such as on a wig, to make a beard, like a pirate.

Mask
