    I figure this way, we can give them any color hair we want with a doll needle.

    Depending upon how hard the head is, it shouldn't be too difficult to do a rooting job.

    This way, we can make it long, short, medium; red, black, brown, blonde, white, green, purple, blue, orange, yellow, or streaked.
    Wouldn't it be easier to do a hair swap with a rooted hair head simply because you could remove the original hair and use the existing holes?

    Very true.

    Craig,
    I think this should be an option as well. Sell pre-rooted and bodies with bald heads as well.

    I vote for bald heads.

    I agree. pre-rooted hair is better, plus it's not that hard to re-root a head, anyway. Time consuming, yes but not hard based on my experience.

    There are other companies that use the wigs and they are great. I think this would be the way to go. It would allow the customizer to have many more options and it would cut down on production costs. Just an opinion.

    The idea would be to have the heads sculpted to allow for a wig to be glued into place. The circumfrance of the wigs hair line would all be the same, so if the entire scalp was recessed about 1/16" it would be a seamless. All the wig sizes should be the same, only the color, style and length would vary. I used the same idea when I sculpted my Goblin head.

    Craig,

    Makes sense for B in black. I think that's pretty generic.
    If colors, I vote for a redhead with this shade:

    Do "A" in a red Head...and we've got the Black Widow. I'm really excited for these Heads...the possibilities are ENDLESS!

    Maybe she could be used for a decent Xena custom.

    You know that we all want one of those.

    As well as Wonder Woman, Isis, Catwoman, Romana I, and a lot of other characters.

    A is a winner. Perfect for Vampirella or other retro type characters.

    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.
