This tutorial on how to make a late-Victorian pompadour, created for 1:12 dolls, looks perfectly adaptable to my method of gluing 1:6 hair on people’s heads, if only I can figure out what’s going on in the step where she turns the doll upside-down.
If this works, I can take that horrible bun off of Leonora’s head and replace it with something more realistic.

let’s see if i can help
Ok so you glue these sections down then you turn the doll upside down and use a tooth pick to “blend “the sections of hair together. That way it doesn’t look like neat strips of hair . You just sorta brush thru the strands with the toothpic and it causes strip A ad strip B to lightly tangle together .

Ooooooh, thanks…that makes sense. I thought she was doing some magic to create the pouffy pompadour… She’s just, like you said, blending the swatches of hair so they don’t have distinct borders.
