Instructions

    • 1

      Wipe down the wig holder to remove dirt and buildup. Wipe dry with a dry cloth.

    • 2

      Tape a plastic bag over any felt on the mannequin's head intended to secure the wig and prevent it from sliding.

    • 3

      Spray a light coat of mannequin paint over the face and head with even strokes. Set aside to dry.

    • 4

      Spray a second coat of paint over the face to hide any makeup that shows through.

Tips & Warnings

  • Purchase mannequin paint directly from a mannequin manufacturer or choose a low glare matte spray paint from a home improvement store.

  • Blemishes on the neck and face are hardest to hide because they are in plain view. Add a scarf or hat, accessories that direct attention away from the face.
