      Why not go bald with different wigs being offered.

      One sculpt.

      Many hairstyles. Wigs can be found on many Japanese Volks-like BJD sites for even more variety.

      Fasten to head with velcro strip or plastic snap.

            A & B. FYI, the heads won't be a factor for me because I'll be swapping them out with resin heads or Retro Mattel heads. With the A head we could do the Vampirella figure which would be great.
            If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

              I like A & B. Would love to create a Lois Lane figure. B however is probably the most versatile.
              It's all good!

                I could find uses for all of them quite easily, but for me the struggle with customs has been finding redheads and black haired heads to customize with.

                Doc Mego has the blonde head, and Dorothy's are plentiful for brunette's, but in the past, I was just not willing to sacrifice a vintage Wonder Woman or Isis for my custom Spiderwoman, Vampirella, etc.

                I noticed Toy Fanatic was sold out of long black wigs too.

                If the female heads are successful enough for you in the basic blonde, black, brunette and redhead, might I suggest Green and Purple at a future date?

                Lots of comic book, scifi, and anime characters with green and purple hair!

                    Perhaps I am showing my ignorance of women's hairstyles, but... couldn't you get from B to A simply by cutting bangs on B and combing accordingly?

                        I'm not familiar with the Volks dolls but I don't think a wig attachment would look as good as rooted hair, especially at this scale.

                        That's true but the Wilma and Ardala heads will only be available on their specific action figures. I won't be able to sell the heads separately.

                          That's okay, we don't mind.

                          I am no expert on doll hair myself; heck, I'm not even an expert when it comes to my OWN hair!

                          The redhead is okay, but that shade of red is a bit too brassy.

                          You need a shade that's warmer, and not so brash.

                          How about a blended shade? Red with brown streaks, or brown with reddish highlights?

                          Heck, I bet that there will be a few people here who will scalp the little darlings and give them reroots anyway, so it may be a moot point.

                            The pictures are only a reference for the hairstyle, not the color. I agree with you on the redhead though.

                                Lemme think...who has really, REALLY great hair amongst the Hollywood set?

                                Hm, Catherine Zeta-Jones has great hair; nice length, good color, and she keeps her style nice and simple.

                                Julia Roberts has the best set of curls on the West Coast, in my opinion.

                                Something like what she wore in Steel Magnolias would be great. Not exactly doable in this scale, but great.

                                Let's just say no to Dolly Parton style hair, shall we? Half the time, she wears a wig anyway.

                                Hmmmm, it's tough to decide.

                                Maybe you'd be better off checking out hair style magazines.
