    Gimme a hand with Hair! Long beautiful Hair

    Hey yal,

    I'm trying to add long black hair (from a value village donor) to a resin head, any tips on how to keepit together?

    I need to create a sort of Conan effect.

    Are you basically trying to root hair into a resin head? Don has this tutorial on that subject if that is what you are trying to do.

    There is also a part about melting the strands in Bossart's vinyl head re-rooting tutorial

    Maybe a combo of the two? Melt the little knot on the end and stick it in the hole drilled into the resin head.

      I drilled about 50 of the smallest Holes in a Head.
      After that,.. when I cut my strands off ,.. I used Krazy glue at the Ends to hold into place.
      Once all the Hair was in Place,... I used some extremly watered down Elmers glue to style the hair,.. & make it not so poofy.
