hii!
I want to know a good way of putting a fall(s) onto a foam head.
first off when i do it it looks crap, it just doesnt show how good they are.
second of all because its made out of foam the head falls over! probs becuase its not been put on probably.
i also need to know what you attach your falls with, i use pins is that enough?
help with pictures would be great!
if you check my recent show off you can see how crap i am at putting falls onto my foam head!
please help!

Re: putting falls onto a foamy.
I tie the falls together loosely then use a couple of pins into the mannequins head through the elastic
If you have a wig on the mannequin; tie half the hair up and pin it into place that way x

Re: putting falls onto a foamy.
I've glued "buns" (balls made of foam rubber or pulp) for the foam head and tie the falls to them.

i use pins for dreads, but bobby pin/hair grips for falls (as long as you dn't mind a few holes in the top of your mannequin head)
