As I need to make a bald cap for my piece, I also need a means of attatching the wig to the bald cap. My tutor mentioned incorporating lace into the bald cape or sewing lace tabs to the wig and glueing them down. I thought the first option sounded like the more neat and discreet so I decided to try it for my formative and then if it didn't work then I could dew the tabs on and see how that worked. 

- First I vaselined and powdered the red head. I decided to make the bald cap out of cap plastic to give the most seamless and realistic effect.

- I then drew on the outline and added the circles to mark where I was going to add the lace. I thought i'd do 4 layers of cap plastic, add the lace and then paint over the edge of the lace with cap plastic so it was sealed in securely. I did 5 circles for the lace in the traditional anchor points for wig application. 

- After painting on my 4th layer, I realised that the holes were far too far forward and that the wig wouldn't be covering that area at all. So I painted over the original holes as best I could and carefully cut new ones farther back. 

- Luckily this worked fine, and although the bald cap wasn't as neat as it could've been, I know how to do it properly for next time.
