Paper wig making

These show the start of the wig that i am making.

For our wigs we had to choose a character from a Rakes Progress or a Harlots progress. I have chosen the character of Mary Hackabout for mine. I have chosen her as i can make a big eccentric wig for her for when she became a prostitute.
I need to do some more research into 18th century wigs, this would give me more of an idea of the styles and shapes that the wigs would have been.
