Tips & Warnings
You must have long hair to be able to do this project. If your hair is very short, then it may be best that you use a wig.
If you do not want to use hair dye, there are commercial sprays that you can use to color your hair safely that can be removed with water.
If you want assistance with some of the steps of this project, ask your hairdresser for help. Your hairdresser may be willing to help you with everything (for a fee of course).
You may want to print a picture of Wilma to reference as you complete this project.
Be very careful with the curling iron. If you are not experienced in using one, ask a friend or family member for help. Or, use the rollers.
