Soft Rubbery Hair
 
Greetings!

Custom question: What product out there that I can buy that would be like a soft rubbery plastic that can be sculpted for hair? Something friendly for painting, and has a good long shelf-life (as long as the shelf-life of a Joe).

I'm now looking to remove the hair off of some heads. Some of them are soft rubbery hair, glued on so that I'll have to actually scalp the hair off, completely destroying the hair. Well need something to replace the hair with a new hair style. What can I use?

You could use Kneadatite Green Stuff. You can sculpt it how ever you want to and paint it, but it dries hard, so how ever it dries is what it'll look like permantely.

In my wrestling forums, they use something called "scupty" to mod figures into different Characters or hair style. I never used the stuff so I called say how easy it is to work with BUT the finished product I seen is phenomenal. You can paint it.

I have been looking for Kneadatite Green Stuff, but haven't found it. So I use just epoxy.

I am familair with sculpty, and it's competitor, femo. The sculpty has more options, and their normal product has a slight rubbery feel to it, but not flexible. However, they do have one product which I have not found yet that dries flexible.. I think as flexible as 25th Scarlet or ROC Covergirl's hair.

But I haven't found any of these two products to try. So need as many options as possible.

It might be impossible to make it work like you want, but hot glue dries soft and flexible. You could use something hot to form it after it dries, but it might not work. just an idea for you.
