Abstract: In this short paper we extend the classical Hoffman-Meeks Halfspace Theorem to self-shrinkers, that is: "Let $P$ be a hyperplane passing through the origin. The only properly immersed self-shrinker $Sigma$ contained in one of the closed half-space determined by $P$ is $Sigma=P$." Our proof is geometric and uses a catenoid type hypersurface discovered by Kleene-Moller. Also, using a similar geometric idea, we obtain that the only complete self-shrinker properly immersed in an closed cylinder $overline{B}^{k+1}(R)imesmathbb{R}^{n-k}subsetmathbb{R}^{n+1}$, for some $kin1,ldots,n$ and radius $R$, $Rleqsqrt2k$, is the cylinder $mathbb{S}^k(sqrt2k)imesmathbb{R}^{n-k}$. We also extend the above results for $lambda-$hypersurfaces.
