Hair
Style 1 (hair spray involved)
Attach hair on head. Use any your favorite method. There are a lot of videos on YouTube how to attach hair. You can see hair line on picture.
I brushed hair with regular dog slicker.
After that I hold head with hair down over boiling water to make hair straight. Comb it and wait for an hour to dry it out. Then I use hair spray (generously) to fix the hair style (let it dry). It holds the hair very well. I really like this way. Do not use hair spray if you make toy for baby (under 2 years old).
