I've worked w/ costuming things a few x & found it too tedious for me, as I prefer more non-sewing methods. However, I do still appreciate the mechanism of sewing machines despite I prefer to abstain from sewing!

As for wig making, I've never gotten to experience that w/ ROOTING the hair in. I have learn to make a simplified 1 using a sig cap as the head cover, where the hair cover the entire cap! It was tough but quite interesting.

Now, makeup? That's ALWAYS been my thing, since age 5! However, I've just gotten my hands on a lil but of Stage Makeup products & have messed w/ the cheaper Halloween products. Prior tho, I've always resorted to street makeup & became somewhat advanced in it, despite I was a closet makeup type (never worked a field in makeup).

Why have normal-looking wigs when the hair can be styled that way?
