They actually work pretty well. We always made monsters, of course. Old grocery bags were surprisingly heavy, but if you were worried about some flimsy paper failing the play-test, it was possible to stiffen the wig in a number of ways. The quickest was to just use two bags, one nested inside the other, before cutting. It was also possible to brush glue on and let it dry (can do several coats) before painting. Of course, you have to be careful and keep your workspace pretty clean, or your drying wig might get any number of unwanted decorations and warps and creases.<br /><br />Of course, if you're really worried you can do all the same stuff with a resized cardboard box instead. Just peel the paper up off the corrugation where you want your hair to curl, and then cut away the excess cardboard.Mr. Cavinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634994342702518448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2136311233296776036.post-25533952739525739412022-04-30T23:43:20.110-05:002022-04-30T23:43:20.110-05:00Well, finally, a solution for thinning hair -- pap...Well, finally, a solution for thinning hair -- paper bag wigs!

We'll never know ...<br /><br />I'm not sure anyone actually took those paper bag wigs out for a spin. I honestly don't see them staying on with even a mild breeze. But they're pretty hilarious in the pic! <br /><br />Craftypants Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14413843592088954786noreply@blogger.com
