Today I'm finishing up several loose ends. First up was to glue an extra strip of mohair along the bottom inside edge of David's wig, so it would be fuller in the neck. Then it was done....
I was pleasantly surprised at how much this wig looked like the first one. It isn't quite as 'curly', but is still nice and wavy. And most importantly, it doesn't photograph as 'bright orange'.
Then, since I had the glue gun sitting there, I thought I'd tackle baby Sena's wig. Talk about tiny!! I've never made such a tiny wig before, and wasn't at all convinced that it would even work. Babies don't usually have a lot of hair - at least mine didn't. But I was determined to give it a try.
This is what it looked like after it was all glued....

Way too wild and bushy for a little baby! So I combed and trimmed it. Then wet it, worked in some hair gel, and put it on Sena (covered in plastic wrap) to trim some more. Then I wrapped the wig with strips of cotton, and laid the doll on a heat register, so the wig could dry....
When I unwrapped the wig, this is what it looked like....
..and with her jacket and hat on....
Now she just needs to get painted....
